I learned that bug spray is effective initially but begins wearing off as soon as it’s applied.

I learned that male mosquitoes feed on plant nectars, but female mosquitoes also bite in order to extract protein from blood to use in egg production.

I learned that mosquitos prefer adults over children because they have more CO2. Also, walk around the yard and pour out anything that is collecting water. Don't forget to check your gutters. That's one place I didn't think about.

I learned that: Bright colors have not been proven to attract adult mosquitoes, but strong smells like perfumes, scented soaps, and lotions do. Standing water sources and hot exhaled gases also attract mosquitoes.
