The Florida Everglades is a popular destination for eco-tourists and adventurers, known for its vast wetlands and incredible biodiversity. However, along with its beauty, the Everglades is home to millions of mosquitoes. Whether you're hiking, kayaking, or exploring the swamps, effective insect repellent is crucial to protect yourself from mosquito bites.

Why Mosquitoes Are Abundant in the Everglades Wetlands

The Everglades has a unique mix of freshwater and brackish water, creating ideal breeding conditions for mosquitoes, especially species like Aedes and Culex. Mosquitoes lay their eggs in standing water, and with year-round humidity and warm temperatures, the mosquito population in this region is constantly thriving. This makes proper mosquito protection a necessity for visitors.
