Actually what you’ve got to do is pinch the skin around it, trapping its mouthparts, and violently blasting blood inside it until it’s too fat to fly.

I read that if you see a mosquito biting you and you can resist the urge to swat her until she’s done, you’ll have less itch because she’ll have sucked most of her saliva back out with the blood. But I haven’t tried it

That would mean when they bite you during the night when they can take their sweet time, you would wake up with no itchiness, but that’s not the case for me.

Maybe the nighttime suckers are kinky bastards who deliberately hock a loogie in you before they leave.
