When are mosquitoes active?
Mosquitoes generally start to be dispatched in May every year and reach the peak in the middle and late August. When the temperature drops below 10℃, the remaining mosquitoes will stop breeding, enter hibernation and stop eating. Many people think that mosquitoes only exist in summer and will disappear in autumn. In fact, early autumn and Mid-Autumn Festival are both active periods for mosquitoes. When the weather is too hot, the vitality of mosquitoes will weaken. The most suitable temperature for mosquitoes to survive is between 28 and 30 degrees Celsius, and mosquitoes are more active in rainy days. Female mosquitoes bite people indoors. They suck blood in order to provide more nutrition for their offspring when laying eggs. Rainy autumn and pleasant temperature create more opportunities for mosquito breeding. Therefore, autumn mosquitoes bite harder, suck more blood and carry more germs, so there is a saying that autumn mosquitoes are more poisonous than summer mosquitoes. But the life span of mosquitoes is generally 1 to 4 weeks. As the weather gets colder, mosquitoes will gradually disappear within half a month after the Mid-Autumn Festival.
