West Nile isn’t spread airborne, dumbass.
That’s not how West Nile Virus works.
That’ll keep those pesky mosquitos away!
Actually, it might. I thought mosquitos were attracted to the co2 from our breath. So the masks might help reduce how far they can smell you.
That’s an old wive’s tale, it’s the heat you radiate.
I was curious, so a quick search yielded that they are both attracted to the CO2 from our breath, and scents from our skin. I do not see mention about heat, which I had previously heard was the actual old wive’s tale.
Not a wives tale. That how mosquito traps are made is by burning a small flame of propane to generate co2 and heat. And then a small fan blows air into a net faster than they can fly so they get trapped in the bag and dry out
Not sure if you were intentionally making a joke knowing it’s spread via contact/mosquitos, or just really dumb.
Either way, I chuckled.
