New research has found that smelly armpits may turn some people into a mosquito magnet.
This is apparently the reason that some people are so plagued by the annoying critters — while others get off scot-free, according to scientists.
The pesky insects are drawn to body odor, also known as BO — and mosquitoes can find us from 350 feet away once they get a whiff, according to SWNS, the British news service.
Recently, another U.S. team found that mosquitoes were put off by coconut-scented soaps.
