One of the reasons why people dislike mosquitoes is that they carry the blood-sucking disease Malaria. When it comes to malaria, there has been an unending fight for the longest time. This battle has been a never-ending fight because there are mosquitoes that are infected with the malaria parasite, which means that they are carriers of the disease. One of the mosquitoes that are considered to be one of the largest in the world is the Anopheles culicifacies.
The anopheline mosquitoes are the ones that take part in the transmission of the malaria parasite. One of its known effects is that it is capable of biting anytime and anywhere. The females of the species have a lifespan of four days. They feed just once. Each night, they go home to rest and to wait for their next feeding, which is to search for a man in hopes of sucking some of his blood.
Their name actually comes from the Greek word for “one who waits”. It is common knowledge that these mosquitoes are the ones that carry Malaria, and they are notorious for one thing, the act of human blood-feedings. It is their job to have a meal at the expense of another human. This
The mosquito is in a perfect position to suck the blood of the victim, and by the way, most of the time the victim doesn’t even notice it. However, it takes a little time for the mosquito to feed on its host because the mosquito must crawl up the host and actually get its mouth at the skin.”
An adult mosquito can go through a lot of blood in just one night because, in addition to feeding on human blood, they also feed on any blood that is around, whether it is bird blood or cow blood. This is the time when they take their rest. First and foremost, the resting period happens when the mosquitoes take a breath. While it is resting, the mouthpiece of the mosquito’s proboscis will be open. So, with the breath that they take in, the proboscis actually starts to open, which lets the blood start flowing up.”
These mosquitoes live in tropical and subtropical regions, mainly in regions with forests. Even though these mosquitoes are carriers of malaria, they don’t cause most of the disease. They only feed every one to two nights, when the victim is sleeping. Even though the victim doesn’t feel the bite, the mosquito usually injects the parasites into the victim’s blood. These mosquitoes lay millions of eggs, and it might take several days until the mosquito lays eggs. Therefore, these mosquitoes can cause serious diseases if they are not destroyed by humans and mosquitos are not treated.
