Mosquitoes are a common nuisance in Lithuania, particularly in areas like Pavilniai Regional Park. The warm and humid climate in the summer months provides the perfect breeding ground for these pesky insects. Mosquitoes are not only annoying but can also pose a health risk as carriers of various diseases.

In Pavilniai Regional Park, the mosquito population tends to peak during the summer months when the weather is warm and there is plenty of standing water for them to lay their eggs. Visitors to the park are advised to take precautions such as wearing long sleeves and using insect repellent to avoid getting bitten by mosquitoes.

Mosquito-borne diseases such as West Nile virus and tick-borne encephalitis are a concern in Lithuania, including Pavilniai Regional Park. These diseases can be serious and even life-threatening, so it is important to take steps to protect yourself from mosquito bites when spending time outdoors.
