How will mosquitoes find their goal?

female mosquitoes must suck animal blood to survive. As part of attempts to develop repelled mosquitoes, scientists studied parasitic habits of mosquitoes in detail. The result is repellents that actually work quite well. About every hour, however, half of the mosquitoes separate from the wall and flew to a different part of the cage. This mosquito rest Half-Life reminds scientists of the half-life of radioactive substances-the duration after which half of the material decomposes. Mosquitoes are much more active. This is because carbon dioxide releases animals when they exhale and distribute their presence. This explosion of activity, however, does not last forever - after a while mosquitoes got used to Carbon Oxide and return to their old half -life. One of the cylinders was warm, one was wet and one was warm and wet. After the carbon dioxide was released into the tunnel to wake the mosquitoes, it was found that about 93% of mosquitoes landed on a cylinder that was warm and wet.

As soon as it was assumed that Mosquitos found his goals by feeling their distinct odor. This was subsequently found false - mosquitoes actually find their target based on heat, moisture and carbon dioxide in the air. Mosquito repellents, such as dimethylfthal, work by being a biological radar of mosquitoes, which is insensitive to carbon dioxide. The repellents are pungent odors for mosquitoes that make them anestrate their prey.
