    Yes.

    Male mosquitoes are "vegetarians" and live on nectar and plant sap, and only female mosquitoes suck human blood. When the mother mosquito is ready to breed the next generation, it begins to attack humans because the blood contains the oil, protein, and other nutrients that the mother mosquito needs to ovulate. The weather in early autumn is neither hot nor cold, and mosquitoes need more nutrients to start laying eggs for winter, so autumn mosquitoes tend to bite more ferociously.

    Only female mosquitoes bite.

    The female mosquitoes that bite are female mosquitoes, and the female mosquitoes suck human blood in order to increase nutrition and reproduce offspring, and when they are full, they find a place with water to lay eggs.

    Male mosquitoes do not suck blood, they only suck the sap of plants, so they generally do not enter the house. Only after autumn when the weather is cold will they run indoors to escape the cold.

    Male mosquitoes suck the sap of plants and only have a lifespan of a few weeks, while female mosquitoes suck human blood to increase nutrition and reproduce offspring. With a lifespan of several months, or even a year, mosquito larvae are called babes and grow in the water.

    Male mosquitoes survive by eating grass juice and the like.

    Female mosquitoes also survive by eating grass juice.

    The reason why sucking blood is necessary to give birth to offspring.

    They can only reproduce their offspring by sucking blood, so it is the mother mosquito that sucks blood.

    Male mosquitoes live in the grass.

    It is the female mosquito that bites, and the male mosquito does not bite.

    This is because female mosquitoes must suck blood from their ovaries in order to develop and reproduce. The biting female mosquito has two antennae on its head that resemble goldfish algae, and the hairs of the antennae are sparse. The needle is made up of 6 thin-pointed mouth needles, two of which are for the upper jaw, two for the lower jaw, and one each for the tongue and lips.

    When sucking blood, the jaw is pierced first, and other mouth needles are extended into the wound until the blood vessels suck human blood.

    The male has a lot of dense long hairs on his antennae, and his lower jaw is short and weak, so that the lower jaw cannot pierce into people's **, so they cannot suck human blood. Male mosquitoes feed on the nectar of plants and the sap in fruits, stems and leaves.
