Factors Affecting Mosquito Activity in Mosquera

Several environmental and human factors influence mosquito populations in Mosquera. The area's tropical climate, combined with frequent rainfall, especially in the months of June and July, fosters stagnant water pools that serve as breeding sites.

Rainfall and humidity levels
Temperature fluctuations
Presence of standing water

Understanding these factors can help residents and visitors reduce exposure. Simple actions like eliminating standing water in containers or using insect repellents can make a big difference. Learn more about mosquito ecology at the World Health Organization.
