L-lactic and 2-ketoglutaric acids, odors from human skin, govern attraction and landing in host-seeking female Aedes aegypti mosquitoes

B. D. Sumner, B. A. Amos, J. E. Bello, R. T. Carde

The paper shows that L-lactic and 2-ketoglutaric acids, components of human skin odor, trigger full host-seeking behaviors in female Aedes aegypti mosquitoes.

Strong attraction of male mosquitoes (Aedes aegypti) to humans

B. A. Amos, A. A. Hoffmann, K. M. Staunton, M.-J. Lau, T. R. Burkot, P. A. Ross

This study shows male Aedes aegypti mosquitoes are strongly attracted to humans in semi-field conditions, challenging the assumption that host-seeking is female-specific.
