Factors Driving Mosquito Activity in Ravenna

Several elements influence mosquito presence in Ravenna. The city's proximity to the Adriatic Sea and its humid climate create ideal breeding grounds. Warm temperatures combined with standing water from canals and nearby wetlands promote mosquito proliferation. Key factors include:

Water sources: Stagnant water in gardens or urban areas.
Vegetation: Dense greenery offers shade and humidity.

Understanding these helps locals reduce mosquito habitats by eliminating standing water and maintaining gardens. For more on controlling mosquitoes, visit the Italian Ministry of Health.
