For mosquitoes, cool white or blue lights are attractive since they see this wavelength more. On the other hand, yellow lights are less attractive since this color is less visible to them. Therefore, to repel mosquitoes, you may opt for lights that are in warmer colors like yellow.
- What is the one color to wear if you hate mosquitoes?
So, to repel mosquitoes, wearing white (or another light or pastel colour) is wise.
