They must like your smell, maybe add bug spray to your perfume? I think there is a great preference among the annoying bugs for certain blood types. You must be a great vintage and taste for their needle noses. They don't seem to like me at all. How much alcohol is in your blood stream?

You're not the only one. They're everywhere lately! We have to stay inside most of the time because there have been 2 horses around our area who've died from a disease deadlier than the West Nile Virus because of mosquito bites. They're so thick at my house that they come inside with you just opening the door to come in.

I know what you mean, I'm the same way. My mom and I will be outside for a few hours playing with my dog, and I'll have 7 bites, and she'll have none.
But wearing perfume/scented lotion/etc makes it worse - it attracts them. And I'm always wearing perfume or lotion.

do you sweat a lot? or are you prone to being really warm? that guy is right: our body gives off odors that may attract bugs. i dont know about mosquitos, but i know that ticks are attracted to the butyric acid present in sweat.

Start taking B12 vitamins. My father in law suggested this to me at the first of the summer and I wasn't sure it would work. Sure enough everyone was slapping at the lil blood suckers but me.

maybe if you sweat more than other people you could attract more, also try mosquito spray

You must have really thin skin and they can see the blood pumping.
