Anopheles mosquitoes

Anopheles mosquitoes are a type of mosquito known for being the primary vectors of malaria, a serious disease caused by parasites transmitted through their bites. These mosquitoes are typically active at dusk and dawn and prefer humid environments. They are found in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. Prevention of malaria often involves controlling Anopheles populations through insect repellent, nets, and environmental management. Understanding their life cycle and behavior is crucial for public health efforts aimed at reducing malaria transmission and protecting populations in affected areas.
