TOP 10 MOSQUITO FUN FACTS!

10. An adult mosquito can live as long as 5 months. 9. An adult female mosquito weighs only about 1/15,000 ounce (about 2 milligrams. 8. An adult female mosquito consumes about 5-millionths of a liter in a single blood meal. 7. A mosquito wing beats from 300 to 600 times per second.

6. Male mosquitoes find females by listening to the sound of their wings beating. 5. Mosquitoes can fly about 1 to 1.5 miles per hour. 4. Salt marsh mosquitoes migrate 75 to 100 miles away from their larval habitat over the course of their lives. 3. A mosquito can smell the carbon dioxide you exhale from about 60 to 75 feet away.

2. Some people are more attractive to mosquitoes than others. It is not clear why, but it probably has something to do with the nearly 300 chemicals produced by the skin. AND… 1. In the interest of science, Arctic researchers uncovered their chests, arms, & legs and reported as many as 9000 mosquito bites per person per minute.
