Unsurprisingly, most mosquitoes navigated to the zone that beamed infrared light at around 34C (93.2F) or the human skin temperature. The mosquitoes could see the IR light up to 70 cm (2.5 feet).

Adding thermal IR from a 34º Celcius source (about skin temperature) doubled the insects’ host-seeking activity. This makes infrared radiation a newly documented sense that mosquitoes use to locate us ...
