Mosquitoes

Mosquito larvae hang below the water surface to lessen chances of being seen by predators. Also, this allows them to feed off food on top of the water easier.

It may but even vitamin B1 alone can do the trick. It is most efficient when used topically such as in the numerous natural insect repellent patches on the market now. A typical adult only needs about 75 mg of it if used topically. But much more would be required if taken in the form of a pill because much of it will be filtered out by digestive acid and the liver. Also taking an oral supplement takes hours before that vitamin "scent" starts seeping out your pours, whereas a topical can start working in one hour and last 24 hours.

Basically it works by masking your normal human scent and makes it harder for mosquitoes to find you.

Yes, but you you would need to drown it, squish it ect.. It's not poisonous or anything.

Larva pre flight

It seems that a Mosquitoes wings flap about 500 - 1000 times per second.

I found a dead deer in a swampy haevily mosquito infested area. I thought the mosquitoes killed it. But they were bad thick, like cartoonish cloud thick. Nothing with blood and sense would be in that area.

Its uses its proboscis like a straw to suck plant juices from the plants the same way that the females suck blood from us so they can lay their eggs.

Catmint,Marigolds,Rosemary and hybrid citronella plants. If you have a koi pond or another large amount of standing water near your house I highly recommend that you introduce mosquitoe fish, because their diet consists mainly of mosquitoe larvae.

The name of the microorganism is the dengue virus.

There are 35 species of mosquitos in Alaska; all but a few of these will feed on humans. Mosquitos are by far the most prevalent bugs. Every year, they congregate in hordes that are thickest from the Yukon River north to the Arctic Ocean and torment the caribou and humans relentlessly.

Over 2400 species have been recorded in the Britain, and currently 2098 of these are illustrated, featuring 6061 photographs

no a mosquito cant lay an egg in a human by bitting. they lay their eggs in water. and only the female drinks blood because of the eggs she is carrying. the males dont, so if u think the mosquito that bit u is male, it is a female.

The classification system for general mosquitoes is as follows. The kingdom is Animalia, the phylum Arthropoda, the class Insecta, the order Diptera, the suborder Nematocera, the infraorder Culicomorpha, the superfamily Culicoidea, and the family Culicidae.

There is no animal that is a producer - only plants and some protists produce food from sunlight.

There have been studies done and a dryer sheet does help repel mosquitoes. You can use any brand or scent and it will repel mosquitoes for several hours.

how can mosquito die? you can use some ingredients from your house its easy when you have oregano leaves just spray it to the mosquitoes first you have to use a chopping board or anything that the oregano can chop small into pieces and you can put in to the spray bottle or you can add some water

Citronella oil is derived from the drying of a grassy plant called Cymbopogon Nardus. It is a natural product as opposed to a chemical repellent such as is used in a bug spray repellent.According to the EPA, citronella oil has been used for over 50 years as an insect repellent. It works to repel insects without harming or killing them. Citronella oil repels varies insects such as mosquitoes, black flies, flies and ticks.It has a distinctive odor which makes it difficult for some insects to locate a host.

You can call it that. Actually they excrete a chemical into the hole they make with a type of blood thinner. This is what makes the bite itchy.

yes i did that and got awful scarring

try to get an antihistimine(?) cream to stop the itching or sudocreme to help heal scars

if you do now have scars, they should go away over time , or when your out in the sun it clears a little

you should also use Avon skin so soft oil spray, the smell of it suposedly keeps them away, aswell as midges.

No. This is because only female mosquitos bite

because of the aromatic smell emitted by the mixture, drives and kills the mosquitoes. if you have already a finish product of this you can use the smoke of this repellant for the smoke is a good agent in making mosquito repellant. It is more better if you make it ina a commercial katol. If the katol can't burn, then you can increase the pulverized lanzones.@dhelzrye@ryedel rod mendoza

Probably not very effectively. The ingredient that makes Peppermint have its distinct flavor is menthol, which has local anesthetic and counterirritant properties. Because of this, it would probably provide more effective relief to the bites from mosquitoes. I don't believe any significant studies have been made into the matter of repelling mosquitoes using Peppermint.
