Why Mosquitoes Don't Bite Everyone: Scientists Name 3 Reasons - Not Everything Is That Bad

With the arrival of spring, you need to prepare for the awakening of insects, including blood-sucking parasites.
Mosquitoes can ruin any outdoor recreation. So you need to think about how to not give the bloodsuckers a single chance to profit.
It has been noted that mosquitoes simply eat some people alive, while others seem to be avoided. But this cannot always be called a disadvantage.
First, the taste of blood
Mosquitoes bite people who have kairomones in their blood more often. They do not bite those who have allomones in their blood.
The trouble is that allomones are found in people who are forced to take cholesterol medications.
In addition to them, mosquitoes bite vegetarians and people with the third and fourth blood types less often.
Secondly, bad habits
But there is nothing to brag about here. Research shows that mosquitoes really do bite heavy smokers less often.
Instead of inhaling the poison, you can use herbal oils. Anise, lavender, clove, eucalyptus and even frankincense help.
You can also eat your fill of garlic.
Thirdly, mosquitoes love the young
Mosquitoes do not notice those who take care of body hygiene, but they are attracted to young skin (easier to bite). However, this cannot be called a disadvantage.
High body temperature (for example, after drinking alcohol) can also attract insects.
Earlier we talked about what habits make people unhappy .
