No, a fan does not stop mosquitoes.
While fans can create air currents that might disrupt a mosquito's flight path, they are not an effective way to prevent mosquito bites.
Here's why:
- Mosquitoes are attracted to warmth, carbon dioxide, and other scents: Fans do not eliminate these attractants.
- Mosquitoes are small and agile: They can easily navigate around air currents created by fans.
- Fans do not kill mosquitoes: They only move them around.
To effectively prevent mosquito bites, consider using insect repellent, wearing long clothing, and eliminating breeding grounds.
