    There are several reasons why you can still be bitten by mosquitoes despite wearing clothing:

    1.Mosquitoes use their antennae and legs to feel their surroundings, and when they perceive the presence of a person, they will use their penetrating ability to insert their beaks into the person's ** to suck blood. Despite wearing clothing, it is still possible for mosquitoes to bite through small holes or crevices in clothing**.

    2.Mosquitoes are phototaxis, and when the indoor light is bright enough, they are attracted to the light, thus looking for a bite target indoors. Therefore, even with clothing, mosquitoes may not be able to detect the presence of a human body if they are indoors in a low-light environment, thus reducing the risk of bites.

    3.Mosquitoes are also very sensitive to carbon dioxide, and when a person breathes, they release carbon dioxide gas, which may attract mosquito bites. Therefore, the human body can still be bitten by mosquitoes even when wearing clothing.

    4.Some people are more sensitive to mosquito bites, and even a small number of mosquito bites may cause significant reactions, such as red packets, itching, etc.

    Therefore, although wearing clothing can reduce mosquito bites, it cannot be avoided entirely. To reduce the risk of being bitten by mosquitoes, the following measures can be taken:

    1.Keep the room clean and regularly clean surfaces such as floors, doors, windows, and furniture to reduce mosquito breeding and habitat.

    2.Using mosquito repellent products, such as mosquito repellent spray, mosquito repellent, etc., can help repel mosquitoes.

    3.Wear long-sleeved clothing and long pants, and choose lightweight, breathable clothing materials to reduce mosquito bites.

    4.Avoid going outside at dusk and at night, as this is the peak of mosquito activity.

    5.Take personal precautions, such as using mosquito nets and avoiding prolonged exposure to mosquitoes.

    The above are some of the causes and precautions that may lead to mosquito bites while wearing clothes, I hope it will help you.

    Hehehe! Mosquitoes love "challenges", just kidding!

    Because in the open place, mosquitoes are easy to "escape", and the mosquito will fly away if the body moves slightly; But it's different on the legs, because wearing pants, it's easy for mosquitoes to get in and it's hard to get out, so mosquitoes bite.

    Hehehe!

    1. The bag formed after being bitten by a mosquito is due to the fact that mosquitoes secrete formic acid when they bite you. This substance causes muscle acid, so you don't feel it pricking you at the time**.

    2. There is mosquito saliva in it, and there will be components to prevent blood clotting, which will make it better to suck blood.

    3. Some substances will be secreted inside the body after the mosquito flies away, to neutralize formic acid and repair small wounds, so it is itchy.

This is because the body's immune system releases a protein called histamine to fight foreign substances, and this immune response triggers an allergic reaction at the bite site. Histamine causes swelling of the tissues around the bite when blood flows to the bite site to speed up tissue recovery, and the intensity of this allergic reaction varies from person to person, with some people having a more severe allergic reaction to a mosquito bite. >>>More

There is a scientific basis, because mosquitoes especially like low-light environments, and after wearing black clothes, they are particularly suitable for mosquitoes' living habits, so they are particularly attracted to mosquitoes.
