Factors Influencing Mosquito Activity at Little Bay Beach

Several environmental factors influence mosquito populations in Little Bay Beach. The island’s tropical weather, combined with frequent rainfall, creates ideal breeding grounds. Key contributors include:
  • Standing water in natural pools and man-made containers
  • Warm temperatures averaging 26-30°C (79-86°F)
  • Humidity levels above 70%
Additionally, the nearby mangroves and lush vegetation provide shelter for mosquitoes. Human activity, such as improper waste disposal, can also increase breeding sites. Understanding these factors helps locals and tourists anticipate mosquito presence and take preventive measures. For more details on mosquito ecology, check out the Caribbean Mosquito Network.
