今年夏天,蚊子给你发“红包” 了吗?哪种人最得蚊子宠爱?
蚊子能辨别血型
那究竟为什么蚊子总爱叮某些人呢?
Why do mosquitoes prefer biting some people to others?
专家估计约85%的原因在于你的基因。
如果你的基因和气味搭配完美,那么蚊子将会饱餐一顿。
Mosquitoes will especially come after you, if you have the perfect combination of genetics and scent.
皮肤表面也有吸引蚊子的物质。如果你汗腺分泌发达,皮肤表面产生较多乳酸,你可能会被叮更多包。
There’s also stuff on your skin that attracts them. You’ll probably suffer more bites, if you happen to produce more lactic acid, which comes from your sweat glands.
皮肤上残留了一到两天汗液的人,会比刚出汗的人,更容易吸引疟疾媒蚊。如果你的皮肤表面有更多这类细菌,蚊子也就会更偏爱你。
Mosquitoes who carry malaria are most attracted to sweat that had been sitting on skin for a day or two, rather than fresh sweat. They’ll also prefer you if you have more of these bacteria living on your skin.
嚯嚯,夏天不爱洗澡的小伙伴们,蚊子可能更喜欢你哦~
呼吸时排放较多二氧化碳的人也更容易被叮。蚊子能嗅到从而缠上他们。因此大块头或怀孕的女性往往中招。
People who produce more carbon dioxide when they exhale are also more likely to get bit. A mosquito can smell this, so it’ll go after them. Larger people and pregnant women suffer most for this.
另一个有趣的群体也容易被叮,爱喝啤酒的人。这可能也与呼出的二氧化碳有关。喝完酒后人们往往呼吸更加剧烈。
Another interesting group that happens to get bit more often is beer-drinkers. This might be related to carbon dioxide production as well. People tend to breathe harder after drinking a beer.
★ 水生观赏植物勤换水,有积水的盆、罐及时清理
★ 常备各种驱蚊设备:花露水、驱蚊液、电蚊拍、蚊香、蚊帐
★ 调节人体自身机制:勤洗澡、摄入维生素B、穿浅色衣服
不想继续被蚊子骚扰的话,就注意清洁,保持周围环境卫生!
当然,驱蚊止痒设备也要随身携带哦。
