Factors Driving Mosquito Activity in Jaipur

Several factors influence mosquito populations in Jaipur, a city known for its pink sandstone architecture and vibrant culture. Key contributors include:

Monsoon rains creating breeding grounds
Urban water storage practices
Temperature fluctuations

Jaipur’s semi-arid climate means that water accumulates quickly during the rainy season, facilitating rapid mosquito breeding. Additionally, the presence of water tanks and poorly drained areas in neighborhoods can increase mosquito habitats. Understanding these factors helps locals and tourists anticipate mosquito surges.
