Before you find out how to avoid getting bitten by mosquitoes, you may want to know a bit more about these insects and why they always seem to have a favourite victim. In other words, why they tend to attack the same person in the same house.
Mosquitoes are guided by their sense of smell. It seems that bites are related to two circumstances. The first is the amount of carbon dioxide emitted when breathing. The second is related to sweat and some of the substances produced by the individual, for example, lactic acid.
In addition, other issues play a role:
Nor is the reaction they provoke the same. The saliva of the mosquitoes causes each person to release a certain amount of histamine, on which the oedema that will later form around the bite depends.
Although some people end up in hospital after being bitten, this is not very common. The mosquitoes in our country do not usually produce very dangerous reactions in most cases.
Now that you know why you are often bitten by mosquitoes, we want to show you 8 tips to avoid them when you are camping:
As there is nothing 100% effective and if you usually react badly to stings, take the antihistamines prescribed by your doctor. You will avoid complications if the oedema that appears is significant.
