Mosquitoes do not even use our blood as food. ... They inject their saliva into the skin to stop the blood from clotting and swell their abdomen so that they can up to triple their body weight. It is the saliva that causes an allergic reaction in the skin, making it swollen and itchy.

Here is ur answer mate!!

This saliva of the mosquito serves as an anticoagulant;
without it the female mosquito's proboscis might become clogged with blood clots.
This specific type of saliva has chemicals and proteins in it that prevents blood from clotting.
They inject it into their victim before they start sucking its blood to prevent any clotting while they slurp. Therefore, the itching that you experience after a mosquito bite is your body reacting to the mosquito's saliva.
