Factors Driving Mosquito Activity in Kakata

Several factors influence mosquito populations in Kakata. The region's tropical climate, combined with frequent rainfall, creates standing water—perfect for mosquito breeding.

Rainfall intensity and frequency
Temperature ranges between 24-30°C
Availability of stagnant water bodies

Understanding these elements helps locals and visitors anticipate periods of heightened mosquito presence and take preventive measures, such as using insect repellents or mosquito nets, especially near the Kakata Central Market where crowds gather.
