There are over 2500 different species of mosquitoes throughout the world, of which 150 species occur in the United States. A single female can lay over 200 eggs at a time. Mosquito eggs can survive for more than five years. All mosquitoes need water to complete their life cycle. Mosquitoes do not develop on grass or shrubbery, although adults frequently rest in these areas during daylight hours.
Mosquitoes are responsible for more human death than any other living creature.
