Aren’t mosquitoes mainly found near ponds and marshes?
Although those are prime breeding areas for many mosquitoes, some mosquitoes will breed in stagnant water just about anywhere, including old tires, swimming pools, buckets, trash cans and overturned trash can lids, birdbaths, clogged rainspouts and gutters, ditches, trenches, tire ruts, old flowerpots and even knot-holes in trees. As you can see, if there is enough space for a small puddle, there is enough space for mosquitoes to breed!
