Or am I eating something that makes moskitos so attracted to me. Last night I got at least 8 bites on me, while my husband didn't get any. I mean I glad he didn't but why are they all attracted to me?

can anyone emphasize on the details, because I've heard if you eat too much carb, they're very attracted, is it true?

You need to take a B vitamin! Go to a health store and get a B vitamin complex, a mixture of all the B vitamins. I promise after this they won't touch you!

I saw this on the oprah show and If I can remember right, men get less bites because of the the hair on men's arms and they feel it right away. I 'm not sure if they said the mosquitos are attracted to women's perfumes or we release some kind of hormones?? there is a specific reason though

try going a day without wearing any makeup or perfumes. im not trying to offend you. mosquitos are attracted to blood or even better, sweet blood.

something that you are wearing on you face or body is sweet with the mixture of your blood it is like thanksgiving meal to them.

less than 10% of what you eat effects mosquito reactions.

women are more likely to be bitten by mosquitos and other insects than men and more than 60% of the reason why are the modern trend of sweet cosmetics, lotion, hairspray, and perfume.

there are over 340 scents that the human skin produces, mosquitos are mostly attracted to people with high levels of steroid and cholesterol on their skin..they also are attracted to people that produce a lot of acid on their skin such as uric acid and lactid acid..you're hubby just doesnt smell good to them i guess =P
