Why Mosquitoes Target and Bite People and Pets

The females have an elongated proboscis (mouth part), which is firm and is usually adapted for piercing and sucking blood, which is needed to start the reproductive cycle.
There are four life stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. The female mosquito, (according to the species) may deposit her eggs on water, on the sides of containers where water will soon cover them, or on damp soil where they must undergo a maturing process before they can hatch when flooded by rainfall or high tides. The life cycle takes two to three weeks to complete.
After the tiny eggs hatch, the larvae begin to feed on very small plant and animal particles, most larva breath air at the surface of the water they inhabit. In a short time they become pupa, which do not feed, (this is the resting stage of development and is brief). When the pupa is mature, it becomes an adult mosquito and flies away in search of a mate and in the case of the female a blood meal to start the reproductive cycle. The blood meal is taken from a preferred host, which is usually an animal.
Female mosquitoes detect body heat and carbon dioxide (breath from exhale) from people, pets, and other animals and target them to obtain the meal of blood needed to reproduce and lay her eggs. Most species are active and bite mainly in the early evening.
Most mosquitoes breed mainly in the spring and summer when the temperatures and rainfall are ideal for development.

Mosquitoes As A Health Concern In the United States

West Nile Virus, which is transmitted by mosquitoes, to humans, birds and horses can cause encephalitis (i.e. inflammation of the brain) and, in the most severe cases, death. At this time there is no definitive treatment for West Nile Virus. Prevention via appropriate mosquito control measures is the key to keeping your family, pets, horses & livestock virus free. While using the Mosquito Sentry Repellent System cannot guarantee the absence of mosquitoes or mosquito borne illnesses, the Mosquito Sentry repels all species of mosquitoes, reducing the probability of mosquito bites.
A chief medical concern in the U.S. at the present time is the possibility of an arthropod- born encephalitis epidemic. Viruses of Eastern Equine Encephalitis, Western Equine Encephalitis, and St. Louis encephalitis have been found in mosquitoes in all most of the United States. Cases of Dengue Fever have recently appeared in Florida.
Secondary infections may result from scratching mosquito bites. And there are people who are allergic to the bites.
