In this episode, we're tackling all the mosquito questions that have been bugging our listeners. Why do they bite? Why do the bites itch? Is scratching them a good idea? Why do some people seem to be more delicious to mosquitoes? How can we keep them away from us? And are mosquitoes good for the world? The Hoax Hunters also make another hoax-tastic appearance.
*Note: if you had a problem with jumbled voices talking over each other, that has been fixed. Just re-download the file or refresh the feed. Appologies - I was trying to shoo away a mosquito.
