    I learned that: Bright colors have not been proven to attract adult mosquitoes, but strong smells like perfumes, scented soaps, and lotions do. Standing water sources and hot exhaled gases also attract mosquitoes.

    I thought bug spray was sufficient…it said it starts wearing off immediately and to reapply vigilantly. YUCK!!!! Also said that only female mosquitoes bite and they use the protein from your blood to create eggs…double YUCK!!!!

    Mosquitoes are attracted to adults more than children.

  11. I learned that mosquitoes like the more CO2 in the adult’s blood over the kid’s.
