The mosquito population tends to peak during the warm summer months, making outdoor activities in the park quite challenging at times.

In addition to being bothersome, mosquitoes in Raseiniai Regional Park can also pose a health risk. They are known carriers of various diseases, including West Nile virus and Lyme disease. Visitors to the park are advised to take precautions such as using insect repellent and wearing long-sleeved clothing to avoid being bitten by these disease-carrying insects.
