What Influences Mosquito Activity in Farg‘ona?

Several factors influence mosquito populations in Farg‘ona. The region's fertile Fergana Valley, known for its lush agriculture, provides ample standing water in irrigation canals and rice paddies — perfect mosquito habitats. Temperature and humidity are crucial; mosquitoes thrive when temperatures rise above 15°C and humidity is high. Additionally, urbanization around landmarks like the Kokand Fortress can create microhabitats where water collects in containers or gutters. Key factors include: - Warm temperatures (above 15°C) - Presence of stagnant water - Vegetation density Understanding these helps locals take preventive measures during peak seasons.
