SCIENTISTS Have Finally Discovered WHY MOSQUITOES Love Some More Than Others!
Ever wondered why your mate always gets bitten by mozzies but you don’t? Well, turns out it might not be down to his diet of bananas or his blood sugar type, but his body odor!
The study (published in the journal ‘Cell’) found that people that are highly attractive to mozzies have higher levels of carboxylic acids on their skin, creating an odor of fatty acids that the insect just can’t resist! Let’s just hope the new findings lead to more effective mozzie repellents.
Tag a mate who’s always getting bitten to let them know how attractive they are to mozzies!
