Most forms of untidiness do not affect the behavior of mosquitoes, but you should be wary of leaving any open breeding grounds for mosquitoes to avoid infestations. Mosquitoes will use stagnant water as a place to lay eggs, so make sure that you have no still bodies of water in your living quarters to avoid a large number of pests. And remember also, that open food left in the room will attract other unwanted pests, such as ants, mice, and so on.

Keep your room clean of trash, food, and pools of water, and you will avoid the most common types of pests. Having used clothes laying around or otherwise being generally untidy should not bring about pests, but it has been proven that a tidy room will help improve your health by mental association (a clean body lives in a clean room).

Are mosquitoes more attractive to asexual stage children or uninfected children?

I think the questioner means to say, Are mosquitos more attracted to asexual-stage or infected children? I don't get what the second part of the question means, but if what is meant in the first part is "attracted to", then the answer is no. But children do depend on others to protect them and if they cannot walk by themselves can't hope to have a chance to escape those pesky blood thieves. I think it's more to do with location, season, time of day, weather, and anything we as humans do to attract rather than repel (as in with smoke or sprays) the mosquito.


What would happen if mosquitoes disappeared?

Anyone who does not study ecology could rejoice in the extinction of mosquitoes. Unfortunately, it would probably mean the death many species and eventually adverse effects on the human population. It isn't just bats that eat mosquitoes, there are many different types of animals that rely on the large biomass of mosquitoes found in humid climates. Sure, mosquito-born pathogens would be on the decline, but this would only be a temporary benefit. Annoying they may be, mosquitoes still have a large role in many ecosystems.


What will happen if you mix water with mud and musquito blood?

Mixing water with mud and mosquito blood will create a messy and potentially unhygienic solution. This mixture would likely not serve any practical purpose and could potentially attract more mosquitoes due to the presence of their blood.

The tendency of an atom to attract a pair of electrons that will bond is known as .?

The tendency of an atom to attract a pair of electrons that will bond is known as electronegativity. This property influences how atoms interact in chemical bonds, with more electronegative atoms attracting electrons more strongly. Electronegativity values are typically measured on the Pauling scale, where higher values indicate a greater ability to attract electrons.

Are mosquitoes territorial?

Apparently they are or else the mosquito magnet machines wouldn't be effective. They attract mosquitoes with a pheramone and co2 (from a propane tank) and trap and kill them. The manufacturer says it takes a month or so for the machine to be effective since they have to kill all the mosquitoes in that territory. If mosquitoes migrates at will the concept would not work.. These machines deplete an area of mosquitoes by killing all the locals. Thus they have a limited range in sq yards. I have read that a mosquito never migrates more than a 1000 feet or so from where it is born. I find it hard to believe since mosquitoes are so light and any wind would usher them into new territory. Anyway for better or worse these are the facts I have heard and wondered about.

Male mosquitoes can be distinguished from female mosquitoes by their antennae. Male mosquitoes have bushy antennae, while female mosquitoes have more slender and less bushy antennae. This physical difference can help in determining the gender of a mosquito.
