Hello dear,

Thank you for your contact to health care magic.

I read and understand your concern.

I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.

If it bites you it must be some insect.

Fleas never bites you.

I suggest you to spray a insecticides in your home.

You can also use repellent. This will keeps the mosquitoes away from you.

Please take the precautions measures as to some viral infections can be spread by such type of insects. I first advice you to do a examination of the died insect as to which insect it is. Thereafter we can concluded the diseases caused by it.

I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.

Thank you,
