The Most mosquito infested cities in America

[Kyle C. Barker]

Hmm

@Coco Loco does DC have a lot of mosquitoes or what?

I mean mosquitos are everywhere but Maryland doesn't have them like Florida!

 

[Kyle C. Barker]

Off top this is wrong. We hardly have mosquitoes in the Bay Area, I’d assume dry ass LA and Palm Springs also don’t have many. I’ve gone years never seeing one or being bitten. DC on the other hand, they used to fukk me up from July - October

If there are mosquitoes in San Fran I sure as hell didn't notice because my black ass was wearing a hooded sweatshirt in August

Operation Big Buzz - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

Operation Big Buzz was a U.S. military entomological warfare field test conducted in 1955 on Savannah, Georgia's predominantly Black Carver Village neighborhood.[1] The tests involved dispersing over 300,000 mosquitoes from aircraft and through ground dispersal methods.

Operation Big Buzz occurred in June 1955 in the U.S. state of Georgia. The operation was a field test designed to determine the feasibility of producing, storing, loading into munitions, and dispersing from aircraft the yellow fever mosquito (though these were not infected for the test) (Aedes aegypti).[3] The second goal of the operation was to determine whether the mosquitoes would survive their dispersion and seek meals on the ground.

Operation Drop Kick - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

Operation Drop Kick was conducted between April and November 1956 by the US Army Chemical Corps[1] to test the practicality of employing mosquitoes to carry an entomological warfare agent in different ways. The Chemical Corps released uninfected female mosquitoes into a residential area of Savannah, Georgia, whose residents had agreed to participate in the project, and then estimated how many mosquitoes entered houses and bit people. Within a day, many reports of mosquito bites were received.[2] In 1958, the Chemical Corps released 1,000,000 mosquitoes in Avon Park, Florida.

Operation May Day - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

Operation May Day involved a series of EW tests from April to November 1956. The tests were designed to reveal information about the dispersal of yellow fever mosquitoes in an urban area. The mosquitoes were released from ground level in Savannah, Georgia, and then recovered using traps baited with dry ice. The operation was detailed in a partially declassified U.S. Army report in 1981.[1]

Also there's no way Charleston SC wouldn't be in the top 5 if this list was legit.

Being from Charleston and not seeing it on this list.

Yh NYC for sure I never experienced nothing like I did in Cherry Valley or wherever that place was that I stayed.

It was worse than any tropical Island or Mediterranean country Iv ever visit.

It was worse than Florida infact, I didn't get bitten once in Florida or Mississippi

That’s crazy. I lived in Biloxi/Gulfport, MS and couldnt escape the mosquitoes and bugs. Used to get ate up. Worst be them mosquitoes and deer flies. Them deer flies live by water, and will chase you. Bites hurt like hell.

We definitely have them but it’s not that bad. That’s as far as the city, go out in a few of those far out counties and you might regret it

Them mosquitoes be eating good out here

Atlanta ranked as 4th most mosquito-infested city by Terminex

As temperatures rise across the nation, mosquitoes are making their presence known earlier than usual.

How the hell is LA above New Orleans which is a literal swamp. Seems like this is based of terminix data. Which probably means how many calls they get to EXTERMINATE mosquitos. Of which places like Detroit or anywhere in the south probably wouldn't do.

I do wonder what metric they used to make the list

I believe you.

St.Augustine,FL is the worst I’ve ever encountered.

How didn't any south Florida city make the list

 

[IsThatBrothaMouzone?]

I knew it was BS cuz of 2 reasons.

1. Not one South Carolina city is on the list.

2. They got DC and Hagerstown, MD combined on the list like they close.....Hagerstown is not in the DC area.

Agree.

Dallas makes sense if you ever go south of downtown, especially in summer. Stood outside one of my cousins cribs and folks was getting bit up like crazy. That Trinity River basin is swampy as hell at times.

New York and LA is some bullshyt....especially LA.

 

[LeVraiPapi]

I call on this list. I lived in the DMV for 13 years and never saw 1 mosquito. Also there's no way Charleston SC wouldn't be in the top 5 if this list was legit.

Yup I spent 6 months in the DMV and never seen one mosquito. Lotta moths yeah but no mosquitoes. I have been in LA and So Cal for 3 years now and I have never seen one mosquito.

Where do they get that LA has lotta mosquitoes ?
Temperature drops in the late evening in LA anyway

 

[LeVraiPapi]

How didn't any south Florida city make the list

I’m saying breh. Miami had so many mosquitoes that sometimes a helicopter has to go spray the lagoons

 

[Justin Nitsuj]

I thought Baton Rouge was in Louisiana. When they moved it to Michigan?
