Factors Driving Mosquito Activity in Tumon Beach

Several factors influence mosquito activity around Tumon Beach. The island's tropical climate, with high humidity and consistent temperatures, creates ideal breeding conditions. Additionally, the area's abundant rainfall during the wet season leads to standing water in natural and man-made containers, perfect for mosquito larvae. Notably, the lush greenery of Two Lovers Point nearby also provides shaded resting spots for mosquitoes. Key influences include:

Warm temperatures ranging between 75°F and 85°F
Frequent rainfall, especially from June to November
Stagnant water in coconut shells, plant axils, and storm drains

Understanding these factors helps residents and visitors take proactive measures to reduce mosquito encounters and bites.
