Did you ever allow mosquitoes to suck your blood ?

July 5, 2012 10:11pm CST
Here in kerala rainy days are emerged and it is the time to multiply themselves. Due to this multiplication we have a lot of mosquitoes in my region, which makes my days with pains and sleep less nights. I need to control them! What are the methods you used to kill the mosquitoes? Did they ever gave you a sleep less nights? Sometimes i just allow the mosquitoes to suck the blood as much as they need. So that they won't attack me again and i will have a good sleep. This is the one of the trick which i adopt now a days. [b]Did you ever adopt this trick? Or did you ever allowed the mosquitoes to suck the blood? Share all the your good days with mosquitoes! [/b]

Hi wonder boy- We do not have to allow them because this depends on their mood. You see there are too many this season in our area and our local corporater is a useless guy who never arrange for fogging machine, so we are dependent on mercy of mosquito. they can use as per their choice.

lol.. You are allowing mosquitoes to suck your blood!!! You shouldn't adopt such bad trick. I mean you can get fall for some serious health problem. And also in rainy days there can be more, so what if they will suck all of your blood... Nope, I never adopt such trick for this. We can follow many other tricks from which we can easily avoid mosquitoes.. Better you don't keep your home windows opened during evening time, that time most of the mosquitoes used to enter in house.

I always used to shut my windows during the evening time. The problem is that each of the houses have a small opening to have the fresh air. I think this is the way which they make use to enter in my room. Now I need to shut them and along with it I am going to make use of mosquito nets.

Oh gosh no. I hate it when a mosquito bites me because it leaves little itchy bumps. I have heard that if you eat garlic that they will not want to bite you but that may be an old wives tale. I usually use a spray to keep them away if I am going to be outside for any amount of time in the evening. There are also citronella candles that you can burn that keeps them away too.

I have never seen smoke from them. There is a smell that the mosquitoes find unpleasant. It's a nice smell to us.

Hey Jenintn, Now I had bough a mosquito net for me. I am just making use of it now. If the nets is not working at all then I should go for buying some long coils or candles which you had mentioned. The problems is that, Don't such candles or give you smoke ? How do you deal with it ?

Why should I allow any mosquito to touch my skin, what more to suck my blood eh. I would rather donate my blood to the blood bank than giving it free to any mosquitoes We have screen doors and screen windows so mosquitoes are not allowed. If any mosquito got in- that won't survive because everyone in the house will chase to crushed him

There are mosquito killers that you can use outside of your house. I know a specific one that's called "snake" and it burns slowly and the mosquitos avoid the smell and don't come inside. I also use my hands to kill them. Generally, they sit in dark corners or under the bed but I use the following technique that works most of the times. I wait until I hear the noise of the mosquito near my ear and then I open the light quickly. Most of the times it's still near the bed so you can see where it will sit.

I just make use of my hands to kill them but there is a lot of mosquito in my room. I find it is difficult to find where the mosquito is. How do you used to chase the mosquito? Do you make use of any mosquito kilers to kill them ?

Are you serious about allowing moquitos to suck on your blood?! That's the first I heard. If there are really a lot of them, sometimes, we can't help but get bitten, but we don't intentionally let them bite us. Of course, when we're asleep, and we're in deep sleep, we sometimes can no longer be sensitive of what's going on around us and we just wake up with mosquito bites all over our body. Yes, I sometimes have sleepless nights when I hear mosquito buzzes while im trying to sleep. But, to remedy that, I just cover my whole body with blanket. Im more concerned of my little girl, because she doesn't like to be covered up with blanket when sleeping. I would regularly spray mosquito killers to get rid of them for some time.

Before going to sleep I just used to make use of a blanket to cover my body but the problem is the blanket do not stay with me during my sleep. I am well ignorant about the things which happens around me when I am sleep. I don't need a blanket or anything else but the mosquitoes make me to wake me up.

I don't allow mosiquitoes to feed on me. One reason is many of them carry very bad sicknesses another is I am allergic to them and a bite from one will last several weeks on me. I keep tight screens on my windows and close all doors, I watch out for any standing water around my home and if one gets in I hunt it down and kill it. They are the one of the worst carriers of illness in humans.

Uh... that's just weird. They can carry diseases so I try to prevent them from biting me altogether. I use tons of DEET and pesticides.

I don't just make use of any pesticides to get away mosquitoes away from me. I believe that those pesticides not good for us and breathing those ones will create some problems for us.

Hello thewonderboy Fortunately, most of the time mosquitos are repelled by me and do not find my blood appetizing. However, there are a few odd balls who find their way to me every couple of years or so. I most definately do not allow them to suck my blood. That is not good for us is it? Isn't there the risk of being infected with malaria and other diseases? Do you not use the mosquito netting when you are sleeping? Peace

The diseases like malaria is transmitted by mosquitoes and from other ones but still used to make them to loot my blood. Today onward I am making use of netting so that I don't want to sacrifice myself but the problem is regarding its money. How much does it cost ? Does it cost a lot ?

Alas, I do not know how much it costs, thewonderboy. I know that there are humanitarian organizations that will donate this item. Also, the World Council of Churches is working to eradicate mosquito born illnesses throughout the world. Perhaps you could do a search of such places online and find out how to procure mosquito netting?

wb, no one willing allow mosquitoes to taste their blood, we all wish to get rid from the mosquitoes. Luckily we don't have more mosquitoes in our place, we use mosquitoes liquidator, mats and electronic bats to get rid from mosquitoes.

I just used to make use of mosquitoes mats but they do not work for a long time. This is the reason why I get a lot of bites from them. Now I am going to get a mosquito nets very soon. I hope they will help me. Don't those electronic bats consumes a lot of charge to kill a mosquitoes ? Does that bats increase our bills a lot ?

Oh my gosh. I HATE MOSQUITOES! I automatically feel itchy and I get paranoid when i see a lot of mosquitoes. There are times when I get disgusted so I use tissue or paper or whatever I can grab to slap the mosquitoes. I know there are a lot of methods to kill mosquitoes. There are devices that have a certain blue light that would kill and shock mosquitoes when mosquitoes pass through the light. So, to avoid mosquitoes, I just use creams and lotions that would repel these nasty insects. Happy mylotting, friend! hope I answered your question!

I actually don't have a big issue with mosquitoes. Unless they are really heavy, they honestly don't seem to go after me much and never have. I would never just sit there and let them suck my blood. after they sting you, they won't attack again anyway so why do you let them enjoy their last meal? They carry diseases and some which can make you very sick. There are repellents to keep them away and also I've heard from many that Skin So Soft by Avon will keep them away.

I've heard they help but I honestly couldn't say. Like I said, they really don't bother me. It's almost never that I have a mosquito land on me and I never deal with them buzzing around me like you described. I'm not sure why that is but I'm thinking that it might be the body oil that I use? I told you that Skin so Soft is known to work as a repellent and I don't use it often but it seems oily to me. I don't wear perfume but instead I use the oils. I have a friend that also never got bothered by mosquitoes. She would joke and say she felt left out and unloved. She also wore oils. Maybe that's it??

I am trying to get a mosquito net for me in my bed room. I hope it is well enough to stay away from them. Do you have mosquito net with you ? Do they help you to stay away from the mosquitoes ?

hi twb, If I can only tell to the mosquitoes not to bite me or anyone I will tell them I will even offer them some food to suck on so they will leave us alone Mom keeps the house clean and spray some insecticide like baygon to keep the mosquitoes away. happy mylotting

I don't feel it is quite safe to spray insecticides to get away mosquitoes away from you because those chemicals can enter into your body to have some diseases. I think you can avoid using them

so you mean it is more safe for us to allow the mosquitoes to suck our blood? now a days you can't identify which one is safe or not because its all about risking it all when using or eating something.

I think my blood is sweet and mosquitos like it a lot, because I am the first person that they bite in the room! No, I don't let them suck my blood, I open the light and search for them until I find them. Or else I'll have to stay fully covered under the sheets for the rest of the night and it's too hot to do that!
@besweet (9859)

I only use sheets but they don't really help when it's hot during the summer because I through them away in my sleep! So I prefer to wake up and chase them, instead of waking up with mosquito bites!

I just make use of my blankets to stay away from me from my sleeping time and it do not help of much of because those blankets do cover me up when i am in deep sleep. Do the blankets help you when you are in a long deep sleep?
