The mosquito is one of Canada’s most reliable summer species. Canada has over 82 different species of mosquitoes, with a total population that would never show on a calculator. Scientists believe that mosquitos originated from South Africa, and slowly spread across the world to reach a whopping variation of 2,700 species. Regardless of the size of Canada’s mosquito diaspora, we all know that mosquitos are one of the best party-crashers to summer activities.
