Current and former campaign staffers told BI that they rarely have time to sit for a meal. "I probably ate my weight in Jimmy John's and Subway on those campaigns," he told Business Insider over the phone. Between rallies and phone calls, he chomped away at the sandwiches, one of many frantic campaign staffers without enough time for a sit-down meal. Nellis, now 36, told Business Insider that campaign culture is better now than when he started two decades age.

One week, he made $8,300 doing private rides between stretches of Uber and Lyft driving. He started his own LLC and occasionally markets his independent driving business as a passenger. "You have to treat Uber and Lyft like a business if you're doing it full-time," Trent told Business Insider. "I do rideshare quite a bit, but I do it mostly to build my client business," Trent said. He said he can often charge customers much less than what they pay for Uber or Lyft rides, and he still makes more.

☆ Mosquitoes are most attracted to a chemical compound present in butter, cheeses and yogurts. Their deterrents can be a chemical found in plants, including cannabis.

Researchers conducted a study to find out how different human body odors can attract mosquitoes. The research used a 20-meter by 20-meter screened cage that contained hundreds of African malaria mosquitoes, according to the study. Despite the name, the mosquitoes were not infected with malaria, according to CNN, which first reported on the study. These tents are connected to the cage in a way that the human body odor can be safely fed to the mosquitoes. Researchers found that mosquitoes gravitated to human body odor with "increased relative abundances of the volatile carboxylic acids," including butyric acid.
