Mosquitoes are a serious nuisance; from that terrible buzz near your ear when you’re trying to sleep, to the itchy, swollen bumps they leave after biting you. If you didn’t know, it’s only the females of the species who bite us. Male mosquitoes prefer to feed on nectar, generally avoiding humans.
Mosquitoes can also be a health risk – they can transmit diseases through their bite (including Malaria, Yellow Fever, West-Nile Fever, and more). In fact, mosquitoes are responsible for more human deaths than all the wars in our history combined.
