Do mosquitos die after they 'sting' you?

No, mosquitoes do not die after "stinging" a person.Specifically, it is the female of the insect in question (Culicidae family) that does the attacking. She makes contact -- by suctioning, not stining -- with animals and peoples to meet reproductive needs and thereby perpetuate her species. The blood which she draws will be directed towards proper development of her ovaries and maturation of her eggs.
