The Effects of Scent Signature on Attractiveness to Mosquitoes

We can quantify the number of mosquitoes that really love that scent or dislike that scent by recording the number of landings. By analyzing that chemical sample, we can actually discern what the chemical constitution of the human scent signature is and whether it's associated with being highly attractive or not so attractive at all. In particular, we found one individual that was a mosquito magnet. And this individual wasn't very frequently targeted by mosquitoes.
