Mosquitoes

It is very well known how irritating – and painful – midges and mosquitoes can be. Despite feeling like you swatted many mosquitoes and midges away, somehow you may find yourself with an uncomfortable and nasty itchy bite or two.

Below are some facts to know about these unpleasant little insects:

• It takes only 6-10 days for them to mature from eggs to adults.
• They populate around still water, where their larvae feed and grow.
• Mosquitoes and midges appear to be drawn towards bright colours.
• At either dawn or dusk, you should be aware of possible mosquito bites. If you’re unlucky, this can occur during both. It is during these periods that their internal clocks tell them it's feeding time.
