Scientists found that some mosquitoes really are targeting humans more than other food sources, but it could be a matter of convenience as biodiversity dwindles
I wonder if this isn’t the result of natural selection. As in: mosquitoes that are better at detecting humans have better odds of reproduction than the ones focusing on different prey. Perhaps it’s attraction towards some molecules humans release into the air, or even to night lights.
