A member asked:

If you eat and drink a lot of sugary foods and drinks does that make mosquitoes bite you more? maybe your blood is sweeter from all the sugar?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Mosquitos: Detect their victims via a combination of infrared heat emission and exhaled carbon dioxide. Blood glucose levels have no role in the frequency of mosquito bites. Hope this helps!
