Is it true that mosquitoes don't bite you if you have cancer?

No i have soft sarcoma tissue cancer and mosquitoes bite me all the time but it just might be the types of cancer that ward away mosquitoes. You might want to ask someone with a more common cancer since the type i have has only 50 reported cases around the world.


What is the name of male mosquito?

You may think all mosquitoes are out to get you, but that's simply not true. Similar to other insect species like the praying mantis, only female mosquitoes are a threat to humans. As you read through the differences between female mosquitoes and male mosquitoes, be prepared for some surprises! * Both male and female mosquitoes eat flower nectar for nourishment * Female mosquitoes bite humans and animals so they can receive protein. This protein helps them lay eggs, thus bringing more blood-sucking mosquitoes into the world * A female mosquito has a ridged proboscis to pierce human and animal skin. Because of the serrated edges of her proboscis, her bite usually goes undetected until the itchiness sets in * A male mosquito has a proboscis, but it does not have ragged edges for biting * Male mosquitoes are slightly smaller than females * Only female mosquitoes make that annoying mosquito sound that puts you on red alert It's amazing to see the difference genders can make, isn't it!? Now you can rest at ease when you see a mosquito that doesn't make noise and only save your jumping for those pesky females that love to buzz before they bite.
