Why Do Mosquitos Bite Some People More!

[cupidkisses]

You must be asking this question many times to yourself if you are also belong to this group. You may wonder why they don't bite others even you were in the same room. And that make you think more about this question.

Scientists come up with many reasons for this question and our blood type, the smell of our skin, and the amount of the CO2 that we give off are some of the reasons.

Some blood types whet appetite of mosquitos. For example, they like O blood type more than others. If you have this blood type then you have more possibility of getting bitten by mosquitos.

We give off some scents as we sweat. And mosquitos can find us more easily by the help of these scents.

Another thing is the amount of CO2 that we give off. So the more we breath the easier it is to be found by mosquitos. They know that there is someone out there. And also a delicious food.

Yea I have noticed this too, I always figured it was due to how much sugar u had in your blood or maybe your diet. Or like you said, blood type.
The times I have gone camping or been out in the woods, I have seen others deal with this but they dont bother me.

Yeah unfortunately I've always been one of those people; if I'm in a room with 50 people and one mosquito, she'll go for me.

Kind of the opposite of what happens with human females...

Another thing to bear in mind is that some people have a much more uncomfortable response to a mosquito bite than others do.

It might *look* as if they are targeted more (and you are correct to say that some people are), but other people may be getting bitten just as badly, and simply not show a reaction to it.
