Do flies and mosquitoes die in winter, or do they go to hibernation?

First of all for mosquitoes and flies.

There is no such thing as hibernation. But their way of wintering is actually similar to hibernation. For adult flies and mosquitoes, they usually fly to eaves, fences, toilets, or warmer rooms before winter.

They don't fly around and they don't eat.

For the larvae, they have a clear difference, for flies, generally it will lay their eggs in human or animal feces, compared to the cold outdoors, the temperature inside the feces is higher, can ensure that the eggs will not be frozen to death, and in the warm season, those eggs will slowly grow, called adults. Generally at 0 degrees Celsius.

Below, flies spend the winter in the form of pupae or hide in their droppings in the form of eggs. In warmer temperatures above 5 degrees Celsius, flies do not lie dormant and continue to reproduce.

As for mosquitoes, they are more vulnerable, below 10 degrees Celsius, mosquitoes will die in large numbers, and the remaining stronger mosquitoes will look for some warmer places indoors, wall cracks, heating pipes, etc. And reduce their metabolism, maintain until the warm season to continue to come out to suck blood and reproduce.

For mosquito eggs, the temperature in the water is generally higher than that outside, and even if it is as low as freezing, it will not die easily. And when the weather warms up, they hatch into larvae and die. However, according to the data, some children born later may also survive the long winter.

Whether it's mosquitoes or flies, they all have roughly the same but slightly different way of wintering, maybe this is the magic of nature, hope, thank you.

Most of them are dead, but there are also many that can survive the winter, after all, it is also warm inside the buildings in the winter in the north now.

It's time to hibernate, after all, if you die, there is still a way to say it, you can't be that they are frozen to death, so it's very likely that they have their own hibernation place.

In the winter they go to hibernation, and I think in the summer is the season when they want to come out and play, and they can go and suck people's blood to be active.

For flies and mosquitoes, there is no hibernation in them. Just like some flowers, they are only suitable for one season.

I think it's dead, after all, I haven't heard that they will hibernate, but there are probably some who hide in warmer places and survive.

When they die, they don't hibernate, they should reproduce their offspring into eggs that we can't see.

I think they went to hibernation, and of course some of them couldn't find a place to hibernate and froze to death.

They do not die, but go to warmer places in the form of pupae to prepare for the cold winter, and most of them will not die.

Hide in a more hidden place, the back of the wardrobe, etc., hide from the heater, etc., not only hide from the harsh winter, reduce the metabolic rate, avoid starvation and death spots, hide in warmer places such as hibernation outdoor mosquitoes, and the second mosquito hatches more eggs.

Flies and mosquitoes must die in winter, they don't have the ability to hibernate, and if they hibernate, wouldn't it be too scary?

Why do mosquitoes and flies become extinct in winter, and where do they go?

Hello, glad to answer for you, flies hibernate, but most of them freeze to death. Flies spend the winter hiding in corners and under the bark of trees. Most of the flies freeze to death, and a few have strong vitality to survive the long winter and come out to breed when the weather warms up.

The activity of flies varies from fly species to species and is mainly affected by two factors: temperature and light. They are phototaxis, prefer to move during the day or in bright spots, and often rest on ceilings, wires, or suspended ropes at night. Houseflies are more sensitive to temperature, most active at 30 hours, prefer to stay in the shade at 30 or more, can feed at 15 hours, can fly at 12 hours, can only crawl at 9 10, 7 8 do not move at all, and the lethal temperature is more than 45.

All kinds of flies are strict in the selection of seasons, so they can be divided into 7 types: spring, spring, spring, summer, summer, autumn, autumn and cold season peak. Geographical location also has a certain influence, such as houseflies appear all year round in the southern tropical regions of China, and stop developing and reproducing in winter in the cold and temperate zones. Most flies overwinter with pupa, but the overwintering method is related to the local temperature and other conditions and species.

The overwintering sites of pupae or adults are mostly near the breeding site, generally within 3 meters, 0 from the surface. 5 cm deep loose soil, garbage breeds overwinter, and then develops after spring warm. Adult pupa wintering mostly choose warm places, lie still, and come back in spring. Thank you.

Not all flies will hibernate, flies are suitable for living in places with higher temperatures, flies breed most vigorously in summer, and many flies will freeze to death in winter due to low temperatures, and only some flies will choose to go to a warmer place to spend the winter.

Flies and mosquitoes do not hibernate

They lay eggs before the weather gets cold, and only some of these eggs will freeze to death, and the rest will hatch as soon as the temperature is right, and generally they will develop from maggots (larvae) to adults in 10 days. So, as long as the temperature is right in spring, there will also be flies. Some eggs may have been laid in the house, so that they will hatch as long as the temperature inside the house is right in winter.

They will find a warm place (such as a pit in a sewer or heating line) to hide for the winter, and mosquitoes that can't find it will freeze to death. They do not hibernate, and if the conditions are right, it is still possible for them to be in our rooms, even in winter.
