Sometimes it’s best to be last in line, especially when mosquitoes are on the prowl.
Ever wonder why you’re the chosen one, whereas your buddies walk away unscathed? It turns out that scientists have also wondered.
Being scientists, they’ve come up with a few pet theories. One is that Type O blood is especially delicious. If you’ve got that running through your veins, look out!
Another is that exhalations matter. The more the merrier. For the mosquitoes, that is. And if you’ve had a few beers, cover up quick. But not with a brightly colored garment. Turns out they love that too.
