Some types of mosquitoes have a strong preference for people’s feet.
Why?
Studies on mosquitoes have found that these insects go crazy for the smell of some cheeses whose maturation takes place thanks to a bacterium. The same bacteria is present on smelly feet, a real aphrodisiac for mosquitoes!
Also the tiger mosquito prefers to bite its victims at the level of the ankles, from this position it can easily climb up along the legs even inside the pants.
In conclusion, if you have feet with a “special” fragrance, you are a desirable victim in the eyes of a mosquito!
