Mosquitoes Pests Unmasked: Your Guide to Sydney's Stealthy Biters.

Mosquitoes are a ubiquitous pest in Sydney, with several common species, including Aedes, Culex, and Anopheles. These tiny, blood-feeding insects are most active during the warm months, particularly in summer and early autumn. Their typical behaviour involves locating hosts by detecting exhaled carbon dioxide and body odours. Once they've found a host, mosquitoes use their specialized mouthparts to pierce the skin and extract blood. In the process, they can transmit diseases like Ross River virus and Barmah Forest virus, making them more than just a nuisance.

Mosquitoes are a problem in various outdoor and indoor settings in Sydney. They thrive in areas with stagnant water, making gardens, ponds, and even rainwater tanks ideal breeding grounds. Outdoor events, picnics, and barbecues can be marred by mosquito bites. Additionally, mosquitoes often find their way indoors, causing sleepless nights and discomfort. The situation becomes more concerning near wetlands or coastal regions where mosquito populations can surge. To effectively manage mosquito infestations in a city with a favourable climate, comprehending their behaviour and preferred environments becomes paramount.
