• And malaria

Here are some surprising factors that make mosquitoes bite you frequently.

However, you may have noticed that mosquitoes bite some people more than others. Scientists have figured out that it is not because “your blood is sweet”. It has more to do with the smell of your skin.

Everyone’s skin is covered in different combinations of bacteria and those bacteria all produce different chemicals. The smells created by some combinations of those chemicals make certain unhappy people irresistible to mosquitoes.

They are also drawn in by:

• the carbon dioxide we exhale
• lactic acid
• beer drinkers
