Mosquitoes are attracted to red, orange, black and cyan - a color between blue and green
Scientists have predicted that it is going to be a 'very bad' mosquito season, warning of a rise in insect-borne illnesses.
But the insects were found to ignore green, purple, blue and white, suggesting these are the best to wear when outside this summer. 'In this study, we found a fourth cue: the color red, which can not only be found on your clothes, but is also found in everyone's skin. Like all mosquito species, only females drink blood, and bites from A. aegypti can transmit dengue, yellow fever, chikungunya and Zika that can result in death.
When a spritz of carbon dioxide was added, the mosquitoes flew toward dots that were red, orange, black or cyan - but avoided those that were green, blue and purple.
