Mosquitoes are about to Emerge, Ontario - Get Ready to be Swarmed 🦟

The Deets

Okay, bestie, listen up! The word on the street is Ontario's mosquito game is about to level up in 2025, and not in a good way. Experts are saying the mosquito season is gonna be extra intense, which is a major L for anyone who likes chillin' outside without getting bit.

Why the sudden glow-up for these annoying bloodsuckers? It's all about the weather, no cap. We had a wet winter and early spring with all those storms, plus some recent thunderstorms. Now the temps are rising? Mosquitoes are thriving. It's like they're having a party, and we're all on the guest list – as snacks.

Toronto was kinda dry at first, but other parts of Ontario – like up north, around Georgian Bay, and Cottage Country – got soaked. And word is, more rain is coming late May and early June. So basically, it's a mosquito paradise.

But wait, there's more! It wasn't just wet, but warm, especially up north. And the warm weather is sticking around. So get ready for those buzzy boys! It's not just the bites that are annoying. The biggest concern is the West Nile Virus, so gotta protect yourself.

Toronto Public Health ain't playing tho. They're already planning to drop larvicide in all the gross stagnant water spots starting in June. It's like mosquito birth control, lol.

But fr, you gotta do your part too. Experts are saying to rock light-colored, long-sleeved clothes (even if it ain't the vibe), slather on that bug spray approved by Health Canada, and be extra careful when the sun's setting or rising. Check your window and door screens for holes too. And avoid hanging out near plants and get rid of any standing water around your crib. Stay safe out there fam!
