These days, there are a series of postings online saying that mosquitoes are keeping you awake at night.

"It's chilly, but I'm tired because I couldn't sleep properly because of mosquitoes.

There are also more than 10 mosquitoes caught."

also said, "I couldn't sleep all night because of a mosquito, so my head is blank." There was nothing in the middle of summer, but one appears at night these days."

No, the mosquito mouth is crooked, and it's already been two months, and clothing stores are putting out winter clothes, so why are mosquitoes still showing up?

Experts analyze that extreme heat waves in summer have reduced mosquito activity and shortened life expectancy, while in early autumn, the average temperature has risen, making it a good environment for mosquitoes to inhabit.

Mosquitoes' activity decreases sharply when the temperature drops to around 13 degrees Celsius, but mosquitoes are still rampant this year because the lowest temperature is high in October.

According to the Seoul Metropolitan Government's mosquito forecast, yesterday's 'mosquito outbreak stage' appeared in level 2 and level of interest,

It refers to a condition in which mosquitoes that invade the house are prominent when the outside temperature decreases, although the habitat of mosquito larvae is less than 20% outdoors.

In this case, it is better to refrain from ventilation in the chilly morning and evening, check if there is a passage for mosquitoes to invade, such as holes in the screen, and if water is contained in the neglected container around your life, it is better to empty it immediately.
