Comment on It's probably for the best that mosquitoes havent evolved so they're bites aren't itchy

Mosquito bites itch after they bite, not while they bite. The itch is your body responding to the saliva it injected.

It’s not news to me.
I still am motivated to kill them before or after they bite because they are a known irritant. If they just took a tiny bit of my blood without the irritation I wouldn’t be so motivated to kill them
