    Instead of "biting" us, mosquitoes pierce their long "straw"-like mouthparts into the veins under us, and then suck our blood, just like we drink a drink. The reason why we feel itchy is because mosquitoes suck blood at the same time, in order to prevent blood clotting, they spit some saliva in our **, these saliva carry mosquito venom, and most of them are acidic, and soapy water can neutralize the acidic substances of mosquito saliva, which is why after being bitten by mosquitoes, you can use soapy water to wash the affected area.

    As for the redness, it's not all mosquitoes to blame, it's our body's immune system that reacts when it perceives an intruder. Our body treats the mosquito bite as a wound, so it transmits an amino acid produced by protein breakdown to there, and under the action of this amino acid, our microblood vessels will dilate, and at the same time, white blood cells, lymph, etc. will gather together, resulting in redness and swelling.

    Even in the crisp autumn season, don't forget to prevent mosquitoes, especially when you go out for an outing, you must remember to bring flower water, after all, the "mosquitoes" in the wild are very "hungry", in addition to these, what else do you need to pay attention to in life to prevent mosquito bites?

    1.Clean up stagnant water in a timely manner. Water is an important growth condition for mosquitoes, and the stagnant water should be cleaned up in time to prevent mosquito breeding.

    2.Use insect repellent tools. Priority is given to the use of safer physical methods such as mosquito nets, mosquito swatters, and mosquito trap lamps, followed by mosquito coils, aerosols, etc.

    3.Spray insecticides with dark and damp conditions. Mosquitoes prefer to hide in dark and damp places, and can spray insecticides on the corners of the house, ceilings, under beds, table legs, stairwells, sinks, etc.

    4.Place wind oil essence in the home or plant mosquito repellent plants.
