Pls take time to read about the other Rwandan genocide....comments like this are subtly deadly.
We can blame our leaders all we want for our nations ills, but we don't have to share in their hatred. I am first Nigerian before I am Igbo. Be guided

All Mosquitos buzz but the female has a higher pitched sound than males therefore making it more audible especially when it's near you. Only females come near enough to feed. Human females have been known to do something similar.

Yeah they do but they seem to concentrate on our ears
Re: Why Do Mosquitoes Buzz In Our Ears? by STEVENcrack(m): 11:29am On Aug 08, 2017
it's because your ear produces a compound.. I have forgotten the name, that stuff u remove with cotton bud. The female mosquito has great affinity for the stuff.. but humans won't allow them have it so instead they go for the blood

They buzz in our ears because of the oily moist inside the ears of human attracts them. By buzzing, they are trying to gain entrance into the ear to have access to the oily substance/moist.

THEY NOTIFY YOU BEFORE THEY EAT YOUR BLOOD.

Mosquitoes are naturally buzzing insects, the buzz actually becomes more audible when they come close to the ears.

Re: Why Do Mosquitoes Buzz In Our Ears? by Bobnotrouble: 11:40am On Aug 08, 2017
It buzzs while flying. That sound is from it's wings-gliding.
You only hear it when it's close to the ear due to the ear-function.

Re: Why Do Mosquitoes Buzz In Our Ears? by fashrola(m): 11:40am On Aug 08, 2017
Mosquitoes' wings make that buzzing sound whenever they fly. When they circle your head, looking for a place to land and bite, their buzz sounds louder whenever they're close to your ear. Mosquitoes are attracted to carbon dioxide which you exhale. Every breath you exhale alerts mosquitoes to your presence and they come looking for a place where they can land and bite you
