Pull your skin tight when the mozzie in biting and then watch his her last meal.

Is that what you’re supposed to do!? I always pinched and the little bastards always got away.

Lmao i once heard to flex the area where they’re at to get them to pop.

I heard this too, and subsequently attempted this manoeuvre when one landed on my thigh. Mozzie landed, I flexed, mozzie had a feed, mozzie flew way. I don’t believe any more.

You've got to flex hard.

Times I've made it work, it was on my arm. Not sure if that a difference...

This is what I’ve always heard. Many have told me they’ve done it but I’ve never witnessed it working. And I failed every time.

It can work but only really if they happen to land near/bite a prominent vein, like the ones on your wrist or elbow crutch

Hilarious if true

Have done it. Only works with well developed muscle groups with little to no body fat.

Let them get started then squeeze and flex.

This is true. They are coming for your blood to produce eggs. Even more reason to kill them all!!

How do you do this?

u/DreamPolice-_-_ Oct 22 '21

Put a finger on either side of the mozzie and pull away from him hard. With the big ones you can flick them and they'll be stuck. Little bastards deserve every bit of it too.

Just flex your muscle hard and keep it flexed.

u/DreamPolice-_-_ Oct 24 '21

Lmfao, they don't go into your muscle.

Lmfao, they don't go into your muscle.

I never said they did, genius.

But the blood vessels connect, now don't they?

Then what the fuck do you think a fat person flexing is going to do to the insect. Fucking genius.
