Anopheles mosquitoes enter the house between 5 p.m. and 9.30 p.m. and again in early hours of morning. They start biting by late evening and the peak of biting activity is at midnight and early hours of morning. By keeping the windows and doors closed between 5 p.m. and 10 p.m. and again in early morning, one can prevent the entry of these mosquitoes into the house. Also protect yourself against the bites in the evenings and early mornings by wearing garments that cover the body as much as possible and at bedtime, by using mosquito nets without fail.

Aedes aegypti (one of the species of Mosquito) bites during day time causing yellow fever, dengue fever and chikungunya.
Although it may feed at any time, the mosquito's periods of peak biting activity are few hours after dawn and in the late afternoon until a few hours after dark.
Please see the webpage for more details on Mosquito.

Only the female mosquito bites. At night when the air is still, she can sense the heat and the carbon dioxide emanating from her favorite food, sleeping warm-blooded mammals. She needs a blood meal in order to produce offspring. During the day with air breezes and people walking and moving around, she cannot track her food source, a moving target. At night when most warm blooded creatures are still and sleeping, this makes an easy target to land and feed.

because mosquitoes like the dark. thats why if you wear lighter colors during the night and hot parts of the day you wont be as likely to be bit. thats always why farmers paint the base of a tree white, to keep the mosquitoes away.

mosquitoes do not only bite at night, they sleep in the grass at night I heard this thing on the radio that you can kill them by spraying you're grass at night with a fertilizer to kill them because they sleep in the grass or in moist places.

usually mosquitos attacks in groups composed of 5 mosquitos each.
Four of them lift he 4 corners of the sheet allowing the fifth one to attack you easily.
they usually take turn in that so everybody get satisfied.
they can not do that during the day because you are not covered with a sheet meaning they can not work in group.
