Looks like this is the study: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6776349/
Doesnt this study just imply that paint repels mosquitos? If they wanted to disprove that I don't see why they wouldnt use black paint instead of what they did which was using black cows. If you paint a black cow black, and it gets bit less, that would sort of give it away wouldnt it?
The study says that zebra markings repels flies.
It says at most that paint over skin will reduce mosquitos biting. Unless there is more expounded up in the study that was left out here.
