Mosquitos
Mosquitoes are small, flying insects known for their role as pests and their ability to transmit diseases. They belong to the family Culicidae and are characterized by their slender bodies, long legs, and delicate, scaled wings.
Mosquitoes are most active during dawn and dusk, although some species are active throughout the day. Only female mosquitoes feed on blood, which they require for egg development. They use their proboscis to pierce the skin of their hosts and extract blood. Mosquitoes are known vectors of several serious diseases, including malaria, dengue fever, Zika virus, West Nile virus, and chikungunya. They can transmit these diseases to humans and animals through their bites. Additionally, mosquito bites can cause itching, swelling, and allergic reactions in some individuals.
Managing mosquito populations involves reducing standing water around homes, using mosquito repellents, installing screens on windows and doors, and employing mosquito larvicides or insecticides.
