    One interesting thing I’ve noticed about mosquitoes is that this phenomenon seems to depend on location. The local mosquitoes favor my husband. In other states or countries the situation is often reversed. When we visited Cuba the government was doing aggressive mosquito control due to Zika. I still got disproportionately attacked.

      That is very interesting. I’ve heard people claim it’s to do with blood type but my wife and I share the same type. I like the idea that locale has something to do with it. Mosquitos be like, “oh let’s check out this new Asian joint that just popped up!”
