Mosquitoes are a common nuisance in Lithuania, particularly in the Tytuvėnai Regional Park. The park's wetlands and lush vegetation create ideal breeding grounds for these pesky insects. Mosquito populations tend to peak during the warm summer months, making outdoor activities in the park less enjoyable for visitors.

In addition to being a nuisance, mosquitoes in Tytuvėnai Regional Park can also pose a health risk. Mosquito-borne diseases such as West Nile virus and tick-borne encephalitis are a concern in the area. Visitors are advised to take precautionary measures such as using insect repellent and wearing long sleeves to avoid getting bitten.

The local authorities in Tytuvėnai Regional Park take measures to control the mosquito population, such as spraying insecticides and implementing breeding site management strategies. Despite these efforts, mosquitoes continue to be a prevalent issue in the park, especially during peak breeding seasons.
