Why do mosquitoes bite at night time only?

Question:

Answers:
Anopheles mosquitoes enter the house between 5 p.m. and 9.30 p.m. and again in early hours of morning. They start biting by late evening and the peak of biting activity is at midnight and early hours of morning. By keeping the windows and doors closed between 5 p.m. and 10 p.m. and again in early morning, one can prevent the entry of these mosquitoes into the house. Also protect yourself against the bites in the evenings and early mornings by wearing garments that cover the body as much as possible and at bedtime, by using mosquito nets without fail.

some places they don't hide during the day, such as near streams when it's cloudy

I've been bitten by them during the day cause my blood is so sweet! At least that's my theory.
