How Do Mosquitoes Take Your Blood?
WouterWhether you live in the Great Smoky Mountains or your local sandhills, you’re likely to be swatted by mosquitoes at some point. And while they may be cute in a cartoonish way, they can be deadly to the unwary. Thankfully, there are ways to avoid them. Using mosquito repellents, wearing insect repellent shirts, and avoiding standing water are just a few of the ways to ward off the little critters. However, while you’re at it, you might want to consider getting your kids to sleep in their own beds. You can also try and avoid being outside at night. You might not know this, but mosquitoes can breed in the dark, and you can get them to lay their eggs in stagnant water. This can be especially dangerous if you have an allergic reaction to a mosquito bite.
Mosquitoes are small flying insects that can lay eggs in shallow water. They are also known to feed on blood, nectar, and saliva. It’s also possible to get rid of them with the right pest control methods.
