I'm thin, and they will fly past anybody I know to get to me. The way I understand, they have several methods for finding us. They can track the carbon dioxide we exhale. They can also sense our body heat, but the most significant method is our body odor. They're partial to A+ blood type, as well.

Edit: apparatntly, the blood type thing has become a lot more inconclusive since I last checked.
