How far is a buzzing mosquito from your ear?

| Hmm. In which case, 2 to 4 meters sounds like a LOT to me. My wild conjecture and experience puts the maximum outer bound for a mosquito to be completely inaudible at 1m away. Maybe less.

Much less. I have watched mosquitoes land on my arm without any apparent sound. (Well, except the slap that follows). I do a lot of mosquito watching/killing because they just love to eat me alive. (True story: I share a tent with my two brothers. 95 mosquito bites on me, 10 between the two of them.)If I was going to guess, I'd say six inches is the maximum audible distance.

I think the problem with trying to kill them based on sound (or anytime they're in the air) is that your hand is stirring up a lot of air as you try to swat them. This tends to push them out of the way. You really just have to wait for them to land, then kill them. If you watch them closely, you can see that they have to settle for a half second or so before they bite you. That's when you get them.

It feels like its been forever since Ive last blogged, though three weeks doesnt sound that long. Nothing extremely new or exciting has happened since my last post, but Ill fill you in on how life ... host family could sleep well, so Im not convinced yet. I suppose it was a pleasant experience- mostly because its out of the ordinary for me- though I did start bleeding at one point because a group of fish kept going at a mosquito bite. Id certainly do it again if I got the chance. read moreHow far is a buzzing mosquito from your ear? - Straight Dope ...
However, I did actually want to know the (average?) range at which the human ear should be able to hear a mosquito, so that I can then try and roughly figure out how far it is from how loud or faint it sounds, and swat appropriately. Thats one advantage of phrasing a question in relative calm, you can get it close to how you want it. Quote: ... read moreA Drop Of Sunlight: Mosquito za Kwetu...
