Only Female Mosquitoes Bite Humans
Mosquitos are often seen as a nuisance because they leave behind itchy and sometimes painful bites . . . especially the larger mosquitos. When they insert their mouthpart into your skin, they leave behind large welts filled with fluid. When female mosquitoes bite, they inject saliva into your body as they siphon out your blood.
