The Life Cycle of Mosquitoes and How to Keep Them Away
Mosquitoes go through various stages in their life, starting as eggs that need water to hatch, then turning into larvae, also known as wigglers, that live in water and feed on organic stuff. After that, they become pupae or tumblers, which don’t eat but move in the water until they turn into adult mosquitoes that fly off to feed on plant nectar. To keep mosquitoes away, you can burn candles or lanterns with essential oils like clove or citronella, set up traps, and use EPA-approved repellents, especially during their active times in the morning and evening.
