~An Actual-Factual Poem~
Mosquitoes know just how to steal
Their meals from arms and legs.
They drill in search of blood because...
It helps nourish their eggs.
The males feed on juices of plants,
For dinner every night.
The females pierce the skin for BLOOD...
Yes, only females bite!
That's right!
