What Causes Urine To Attract Ants?

Hi Doctor, I have noticed that recently ants are attracted to my urine and what is even more strange is that mosquitos head straight for my mouth. I have not eaten anything sweet when this happens. I am in my early 30s and I would like to know if this is a symptom of diabetes. Thank you in advance.
