The simple answer to this question is that mosquitoes are here for the same reason we human beings love living in Texas. Our lush landscape is dotted with large trees (shade) amongst the rolling hills with lakes and rivers cutting through central and coastal Texas provide a perfect breeding ground for mosquitoes. Combine the fact that certain imported, invasive species such as Aedes Albopictus and Aedes Egyptus have infiltrated our areas and are thriving. If you feel like there are more mosquitoes now in Texas than you remember 20 years ago, you’re probably right.
