Factors Influencing Mosquito Activity in Antigonea

Several elements affect mosquito prevalence around Antigonea Archaeological Park.

Seasonal rainfall increasing standing water
Temperature fluctuations boosting mosquito breeding
Local flora providing shelter

Understanding these helps visitors anticipate mosquito presence. For more on how climate impacts mosquito life cycles, visit Climate Data Albania.
