Stagnant water sources, including natural pools and man-made containers, serve as mosquito nurseries. Additionally, the lush vegetation around the bay provides shelter. Here are key influencers:

Rainfall patterns: More rain leads to more breeding sites.
Temperature: Warmer weather accelerates mosquito life cycles.
Human activity: Improper waste disposal can increase breeding spots.

Understanding these factors helps locals and travelers reduce exposure. For more tips on managing your surroundings, visit the Caribbean Public Health Agency.
