Why Do Mosquitoes Bite?

Female mosquitoes extract the blood of their host animal with very sharp piercing mouth parts. They need the protein from the hosts blood to complete the egg production task. This is opposed to the males who do not bite and they do not feed on blood. The males get their energy from plants and the various nectar’s. They can also sustain themselves from most any sugar or sweet substances they can found in their surrounding environment.

After breaking the skin with their incisors and feeding on blood, mosquitoes leave hard, itchy bumps. In the feeding process, mosquitoes inject saliva into their host which creates the reactions that cause bite symptoms. Most mosquito bites are harmless and the symptoms subside in a few days. Some symptoms include swelling of the bite site, soreness, and bleeding. While mosquitoes can cause a lot of irritation the important problem that arises from mosquito bites is transmission of viral or parasitic disease.
