What Influences Mosquito Activity in Saint-Pierre Town?

Several factors influence mosquito activity in Saint-Pierre Town. The region's cool maritime climate, combined with the presence of freshwater pools and marshy areas around the island, creates ideal breeding grounds during warmer months. Key influences include:

Temperature fluctuations
Rainfall patterns
Local vegetation and standing water

Mosquitoes thrive when temperatures consistently rise above 10°C (50°F), which typically happens from late spring through early autumn here. The proximity to the Atlantic Ocean also affects humidity levels, which can increase mosquito longevity. For more detailed climate insights, visit Environment Canada’s local weather page.
