Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Do mosquitoes feel the effect of alcohol?
You may know that a person who drank alcohol of any kind attracts more mosquitoes. But is the person bitten more than other people around? Interestingly, exhaled alcohol indeed brings more mosquitoes around just like a dinner bell, but it is the person’s genetic make-up that attracts mosquitoes to bite, such as blood type and body temperature. For example, a person whose blood type is O is twice more likely to be bitten by mosquitoes than a person with type A blood.
Another interesting fact is the influence of alcohol. When a mosquito punctures the skin with its mouthparts and feeds on the blood of a person who drank alcohol also influenced by the alcohol? Not likely. That’s because even if the person has consumed a few glasses of wine, the alcohol level of the blood is still too low to influence tiny mosquitoes.
So, if your blood type is O, you’d better protect your skins from mosquitoes especially when you drink alcohol.
Enjoy reading and learn what attracts more mosquitoes.
