Poison Mosquito

The Poison Mosquito is a hostile Mob in the Shipwrecked DLC. It is a yellow and purple coloured version of the normal Mosquito, and its attacks Poison the target. It has a 50% chance to drop a Yellow Mosquito Sack and a 25% chance to drop a Venom Gland.
Poison Mosquitoes spawn either in Monsoon Season from Flooded tiles or via a bad outcome of the Slot Machine. Like Mosquitoes, they are fast-moving and can be caught with a Bug Net. They have a small yellow blood sac which grows with each successful attack. On the fourth successful attack, the Poison Mosquito will explode and cause additional damage to its surroundings and poison Mobs around it.
Wearing any kind of head and body Armor at the same time will prevent the player from taking damage, being stunlocked and poisoned by Poison Mosquitoes. The player still takes damage and gets poisoned from the explosion.
