You know when two people sleep in the same room, and in the morning only one wakes up completely pissed off and sleepless because of mosquitoes. The fact is that some mosquitoes bite more often than others, while some are practically invisible to bloodsuckers. But why do they attack specific people? Is the blood to blame, is the cause simply a light on, or is there something more at play? If you ask science, there are plenty of reasons. Let's look at them.
Mosquitoes are one of the biggest annoyances of summer and no matter how hard we try, we won't escape a few spots, let's be happy no matter how. You are interested how they choose their victims? Each person has a unique metabolism, and the same applies to the chemical composition of the body. Odor, sweat and other chemical combinations of substances are the reason why we attract mosquitoes more or less compared to others. With lifestyle so you can scroll down the list of their victims. They are in the game metabolism and body chemistry, which attracts mosquitoes more than the other mixture. Now let's see what "charms" this flying nuisance succumbs to.
First of all, we can point out blood group. On the wallpaper, you are mainly those who have a blood group 0 and B. The A's will handle it twice as well compared to them. Of the blood, k beer, which, like mosquitoes, is inextricably linked to summer. And believe it or not, even mosquitoes are fans of this hoppy drink. Research has shown that it is one glass is enough, that the mosquitoes will choose you as a victim before the others. Why? They are still whitewashing their heads with this. And speaking of colors. They also play their role. People who carry are more attractive to mosquitoes black or red pieces of clothing, while repelling them white, green, beige and yellow. Then there is carbon dioxide, which can be sniffed at from a longer distance 150 meters. And if you don't know where you are exhaling carbon dioxide from. And the more you exhale it, the more you attract it.
The same applies to sweat and lactic acid. But if the primary victims of breathing are fatter, because they breathe harder, athletes are the ones under attack here. During exercise, mosquitoes' "aphrodisiac" is sweat and heat, and when you're already out of the shower, lactic acid is forming. Then you have just 50 percent more chances, to be bitten.

But if something is really annoying, it's that us they sting the foot, between the toes and around the ankles. What is the explanation behind this? The dirtier mosquitoes can't resist and there it is bacteria than people in shopping malls on Friday afternoon. Stinky cheeses have the same effect on them, making you such a treat as bacteria. Well, not even spared pregnant women. Why? Due to higher temperature and higher production of carbon dioxide.
Even if we do everything "right", we can only influence whether we are attracted to them or not, because 85 percent depends on genes. These determine how much you sweat and what blood type you have, and the result is ours unique "fingerprint", that is, the chemical composition of the body and metabolism, which means a different irritation for the mosquito.
