Factors Driving Mosquito Activity in Borongan

Rainfall patterns increasing water accumulation
Dense vegetation providing shelter
Presence of freshwater bodies like rivers and waterfalls

Understanding these drivers helps locals and tourists alike prepare better. For example, areas near the picturesque Borongan Bay may experience higher mosquito presence due to moisture and vegetation.
