During October and November, temperatures at roosting sites within major hibernacula in six states averaged 43.5 to 53.2 °F (6.4 to 11.8 °C). Roost temperatures at the same hibernacula ranged from 34.5 to 48.6 °F (1.4 to 9.2 °C) from December to February.
The temperature at which an insect spontaneously freezes is referred to as the supercooling point (SCP). For freeze-avoidant insects, the SCP is thought to be equivalent to the lower lethal temperature (LLT) of the organism. [11] The freezing process is usually initiated extracellularly in the gut, tissues, or hemolymph. In order to supercool ...

Mansonia indiana is a species of zoophilic mosquito belonging to the genus Mansonia. It is found in Sri Lanka, [1] Java, India, Myanmar, Malaya, Singapore, Sumatra, Thailand, and New Guinea. [2] It is a vector of nocturnally subperiodic Brugia malayi. [3] Females are known to be strongly anthropophilic (human biters).
The best way to avoid mosquito bites is to use bug sprays with DEET. The CDC also recommends Picaridin (known as KBR 3023 and icaridin outside the U.S.). The sprays won’t kill the bugs, but they ...
