RE: Understanding Mosquitoes - Their History With Us Humans, Why Are They So Attracted To Us?, Other Diseases Transmitted By Mosquitoes Other Than Malaria and so on ...

in #steemstem6 years ago

such an amazingly interesting article sir, i am very interested in the discuss simply because i fall under the category of people that mosquitoes are fund of (unfortunately)

let me share an experience, i was sleeping under a mosquito net one day and somehow, my hand was touching the net, you wouldn't believe that a mosquito still did the deed from outside the net! It was as bad as that.

i have a question tho

is there any reason why mosquitoes do the "special number" in our ears?

finally, i ask for the menoskian grace!

Hahahaha, these little vampires are getting smarter and wiser everyday.

I read from a site a long time ago, because these annoying tiny vampires have been my enemy for a very long time now because my blood group or maybe my body scent attracts them to me a lot. There is no reason whatsoever for their annoying buzzing or as you said it special number, after they have sighted you, they try to find a perfect landing site for themselves, so they move around you and while moving their wings make those annoying buzzing, so if you notice a lot of mosquitoes around your leg, put your head down and you would hear them buzzing. So there is no special reason for their buzzing around our ear, our ears help us with sound, our hand or legs doesn't, and that is why we won't notice them but whenever they pass our ear we hear them, it's just their wings making the sound.

Thanks a lot for reading through, sharing your experience and asking your question @rharphelle.

oh well, they sure know how to do what they do!
