TT: Why Mosquitoes Only Bite Certain People

As Summer turns into Fall one thing is for certain…

Mosquitoes are everywhere.

And if you are one of the lucky ones (like me) they seem to head straight for you.

But why is that?

This is a question I get asked all the time and you might be surprised that there is some science behind why some are more prone to bites than others.

So, on today’s #CabralConcept 2414 let’s take a look at why mosquitoes only bite certain people and what you can do to prevent it- Enjoy the show and let me know what you thought in the comments!

Show Highlights & Big Takeaways

1. Myths

Do you have sweet blood? No one is certain where that came from (or what it actually means) but there is some research that shows mosquitoes are drawn more towards O and AB blood types.

2. Heat

Mosquitoes can see your heat signature from 25-50 feet away.  They are drawn to heat assuming it is a food source. If you are prone to run hotter than most this could make you more susceptible.

3. Prevention

When heading outdoors make sure to use a natural bug repellent and stay away from strong smells and heavy perspiration.
