Factors Driving Mosquito Activity in Ixtapaluca

Several factors influence mosquito populations in Ixtapaluca. The combination of warm temperatures and frequent rainfall during the summer months creates perfect breeding grounds.

Understanding these factors can help locals reduce mosquito habitats by eliminating standing water and maintaining clean surroundings. Learn more about local climate patterns at Servicio Meteorológico Nacional.
