Mosquitoes (female only) have carbon dioxide receptors that help them locate their host. They simply home in on your breath.

They lay their eggs in still water, so be sure to empty all receptacles around your home. They are drawn to heat, if they are annoying you while you are trying to sleep, light a candle, they will go to the flame and not bother you

Still water attracts them and that is where they multiply. Also I attract them.
