You’ve shut all the doors and windows, yet mosquitoes keep showing up in your house — why? It’s a common and frustrating mystery for many homeowners, especially during Karachi’s warmer months. The reality is, mosquitoes are experts at sneaking in and breeding in hidden places, and closing doors alone isn’t always enough.
🔍 How Do Mosquitoes Enter Even When Everything Is Closed?
1. Tiny Gaps and Cracks
Mosquitoes can enter through tiny openings in doors, window frames, ventilation holes, and even under doors. Any gap larger than 1/8 inch is a welcome gate for them.
2. Openings in Exhaust Fans, Drains, or AC Units
They may enter through bathroom exhausts, AC vents, floor drains, or gaps around plumbing. If there’s no mosquito netting or cover, it’s an easy way in.
3. They’re Already Inside
If you've left a door or window open even for a few minutes during the evening, mosquitoes might have entered and stayed hidden. They often hide in dark corners, curtains, behind furniture, or near potted plants.
4. Indoor Breeding Grounds
Mosquitoes don’t always come from outside — stagnant water inside your home can create perfect breeding spots. Common sources:
Water trays under potted plants
Open water tanks or buckets
Leaky pipes or AC drain trays
Bathroom floors with standing water
⚠️ Why It’s a Health Risk
Besides being annoying, mosquitoes are dangerous disease carriers. In Karachi, they commonly spread:
Dengue
Malaria
Chikungunya
Zika virus
If you’re getting frequent bites inside your home, you may be at serious health risk — especially children and the elderly.
✅ What Can You Do?
Basic Prevention Tips:
Install fine mesh screens on windows and vents
Use mosquito repellents and electric zappers indoors
Cover all drains and seal small gaps in walls and doors
Empty standing water daily (including plant trays and buckets)
Burn mosquito coils or use vaporizers during peak evening hours
