The science (lightly)
Mosquitoes cue in on CO₂, body heat, skin microbiome, and visual contrast. Research on blood type is mixed — this quiz leans playful, not peer-reviewed.
Real prevention still means repellent, screens, and reducing standing water near your home.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is blood type proven to attract mosquitoes?
Some studies suggest Type O may be bitten slightly more often, but results vary. Sweat, CO₂, and movement are stronger signals.
Can I become less of a magnet?
Repellents with DEET, picaridin, or oil of lemon eucalyptus help. Light clothing and avoiding dawn/dusk peaks reduce exposure too.
