A male mosquito lives, on average, 8 or 9 days. The female lasts a month.
If winter comes before the female has had a chance to lay her eggs, she hibernates until favorable conditions return. Sometimes it takes 4 or 5 months.
They rarely stray more than 300 meters from their birthplace.
They beat their wings a thousand times a minute.
It is the females who suck the blood of mammals, birds and amphibians to later produce eggs. Males live on nectar or plant sap.
