"4 Colors to Avoid This Summer to Keep Mosquitoes Away"

Researchers at the University of Washington have found that mosquitoes are attracted to red, orange, black, and cyan colors, while they tend to ignore green, purple, blue, and white. This discovery suggests that wearing certain colors can help reduce mosquito bites. The study highlights that mosquitoes are drawn to these colors when they detect carbon dioxide, which humans exhale. With a predicted rise in mosquito activity and insect-borne illnesses this summer, avoiding these colors could be an effective preventive measure.
