Mosquito bites take on two different forms depending on how long the mosquito was sucking the blood for. They\u2019ll either be a small circle-type shape, or a bigger, more elongated blob. It goes without saying that they\u2019re extremely itchy, and scratching them will only make the itch worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
