I hope I don't seem too picky. Just felt like I should point out a couple things. Bananas contain potassium and I believe it's when you are low in potassium that they aren't interested in you. Also we do not exhale carbon MONOxide, normally anyway. We exhale carbon DIOxide. Yes they are attracted to carbon dioxide. They are not attracted to carbon monoxide and cigarettes produce carbon monoxide and they will stay away from you. Just a thought
Mosquitos are good for one thing. The male of the species feeds only on nectar and so help to pollanate flowers. Ironically it's the FEMALES that are the villinous blood suckers.
