Salt marsh mosquitoes, named for the coastal areas where they breed, travel in swarms and are vicious biters but generally do not carry human diseases. Their eggs, laid on dry land, must be moistened by marine water to hatch.
Terry Whitworth, owner of Whitworth Pest Solutions, is quoted in this AP story:
