Signs of Mosquitoes

Mosquito problems are usually diagnosed by pattern — when and where you get bitten tells you which species you are dealing with.

Mosquito problems are usually diagnosed by pattern — when and where you get bitten tells you which species you are dealing with.

1

Daytime biting

Aedes aegypti bites in the morning and late afternoon and has distinctive black-and-white banded legs — the dengue vector.

2

Night-time swarming

Culex activity peaks after dusk, associated with drains and polluted standing water.

3

Larvae in stored water

Small comma-shaped wrigglers that dart when disturbed; visible in tanks, buckets and plant trays.

4

Resting adults indoors

Mosquitoes resting on dark curtains, behind wardrobes and under beds during the day.

5

Clustered bites on ankles

Typical of Aedes, which approaches low and bites the lower legs.
