Rain in Oklahoma Raises Red Flags for Mosquito Growth

In recent weeks, the rain and humidity in Oklahoma has been rising meteorically, causing a corresponding increase in mosquito population growth and encounters with the pest. This kind of development is typical of this time of year, but the numbers, and occasionally, the size, of the pests have been a cause of concern. The main source for the infestation is standing water, and as the Summer season approaches Florida rapidly, it is recommended that people clear out any standing water indoors, while wearing bug spray outdoors. This will reduce the severity and commonality of the mosquito behavior.
