Factors Affecting Mosquito Activity in Dekemhare

Several factors influence mosquito populations in Dekemhare. The area's semi-arid climate combined with seasonal rains creates temporary pools perfect for breeding. Key influences include:
  • Rainfall amount and frequency
  • Temperature fluctuations
  • Vegetation density around the town
Additionally, irrigation practices in surrounding farms can increase standing water, encouraging mosquito proliferation. Understanding these factors helps explain why mosquito numbers rise sharply in summer months. For more on how climate impacts insect life, visit the Eritrean Meteorological Department.
