An increase of heat brings out more mosquitos this summer after may snow storm

Summer is finally here, and with it comes the inevitable presence of mosquitos. However, experts say that this year, we can expect to see even more of the flying pests due to the strange weather patterns that have hit certain parts of the world. In fact, it’s been reported that May’s snowstorm in some regions has resulted in an increase of mosquito populations.

According to recent studies, mosquitos thrive in warm, humid weather and reproduce more efficiently in those conditions. When there’s a sudden increase in heat following a cold spell, mosquitos are likely to emerge more rapidly than usual, resulting in a sudden surge in their population. This means that areas that experienced cold weather and snow in May may see a higher than average number of mosquitos this summer.

To make matters worse, mosquitos are also notorious disease-carriers, transmitting potentially dangerous illnesses such as Zika, West Nile, and malaria. So, it’s crucial to take measures to protect ourselves from these pests. Experts recommend using insect repellent, covering up with long-sleeved clothing, and avoiding being outdoors during peak mosquito hours during dawn and dusk.

In addition, getting rid of standing water around your home can help reduce mosquito populations. This is because mosquitos typically lay their eggs in stagnant water, so getting rid of any sources of standing water will reduce their breeding grounds.

In summary, we can expect more mosquitos this summer due to a sudden increase in heat following May’s snowstorm in some regions. The increase in mosquito populations should be taken seriously, as they can transmit dangerous diseases that can be fatal to humans. By taking preventative measures such as using insect repellent and removing sources of stagnant water, we can protect ourselves and our loved ones from these pests.
