Some people smell good to mosquitoes.

        Most people consider mosquitoes to be pests because they disturb our sleep with their buzzing sounds. These tiny insects can also be dangerous because they easily carry and spread diseases. Although people generally dislike mosquitoes, it appears that some people get bitten more often than others. Scientists have conducted many studies to find out why mosquitoes are attracted to certain people, and the results are interesting.

        The primary factor that draws mosquitoes towards humans is carbon dioxide. Everyone produces carbon dioxide when they breathe, but larger people might produce more of it. This means mosquitoes might prefer to bite the biggest person in a group. Lactic acid is another favorite of mosquitoes. People produce lactic acid when they sweat. In order to prevent mosquito bites, wash off any sweat with soap and water and dry off thoroughly before going outside.



        It is also essential to take a shower every day, especially for your feet. Studies have shown that mosquitoes like people with more bacteria on their feet. Also, avoid wearing dark colors when doing outdoor activities as mosquitoes use their eyes to target victims in dark clothing. If you have ever suspected that you are a mosquito magnet, these are some ways to help you stay unbitten.

有些人對於蚊子來說是美味大餐。

大多數人認為蚊子是害蟲,因為牠們的嗡嗡聲會擾亂我們的睡 眠。這些微小的昆蟲也很危險,因為牠們很容易攜帶並傳播疾病。雖 然人們普遍不喜歡蚊子,但似乎有些人比其他人更常被蚊子叮咬。科 學家們進行了許多研究來找出為什麼蚊子會被特定的人吸引,而結果 很有趣。

吸引蚊子靠近人類的主要因素是二氧化碳。每個人呼吸時都會產 生二氧化碳,但體型較大的人可能會產生更多。這意味著蚊子可能更 喜歡叮咬團體中體型最大的人。乳酸也是蚊子的最愛。人流汗時會產 生乳酸。為了防止蚊子叮咬,外出前要用肥皂和水洗去汗水並徹底擦 乾。

每天洗澡也很重要,尤其是洗腳。研究顯示蚊子喜歡腳上細菌較 多的人。此外,在戶外活動時避免穿深色衣服,因為蚊子會用眼睛瞄 準穿深色衣服的受害者。如果你曾經懷疑自己是吸蚊體質,這些方法 可以幫助你不被蚊子叮咬。
