Mosquitoes in Wisconsin

Weather-driven mosquitoes risk forecasts for Wisconsin cities and counties.

Mosquitoes are more than a nuisance in Wisconsin — they carry West Nile virus and other diseases. Our mosquito forecasts analyze weather conditions that affect breeding, hatching, and flight activity across your area.

Seasonal Pattern

Mosquito season in Wisconsin runs from late May through September, with peak populations in July and August. The first hard frost ends the season. Standing water from snowmelt and spring rains provides early-season breeding habitat.

Weather Influence

Mosquito populations are driven by three main weather factors: temperature above 60°F for breeding and flight, rainfall that creates standing water breeding sites, and calm winds (under 8 mph) that allow mosquitoes to fly effectively. Heavy rain followed by warm, calm days creates ideal conditions.
