Additionally, deforestation around the river has altered natural habitats, sometimes increasing mosquito populations. Key factors include: - Rainfall and humidity levels - Availability of stagnant water - Vegetation density near the river Understanding these factors can help locals reduce mosquito habitats by eliminating standing water and maintaining clean surroundings.
