Abstract
Mosquitoes are considered one of the types of insects that have very special features, the most important of which is the stinging (biting) by the pupae, which in turn sucks a blood meal, absorbing with it the viruses of various diseases that are transferable from infected cases considering itself a mediator to go and put its pupa to eat another meal of blood, leaving the disease virus in the new host (the host), which leads to the ease of transmission of diseases, including common diseases such as (malaria, yellow fever, dengue fever, chikungollia, and Zika). Some of these diseases are common and known to us including (mutants, Omicron) and others that are transmitted through the air. Additionally, mosquitoes may help in the transmission of some of these newly discovered diseases. In addition, some of them are what we did not recognize until our time, and it may exist in our bodies, but there must be suitable environments for the presence of mosquitoes such as (relatively high temperatures, and the availability of water, whether it is ponds, lakes, swamps, or even holes into which water descends). This is in addition to the terrain factor that reduces the presence of mosquitoes. This is because the greater the altitude of the area, the less available it is to find mosquitos. This is in addition to human factors that help create a suitable environment for mosquito breeding (such as pollution and the type of dwelling) and other factors that help mosquitoes to exist and even settle down sometimes. This also include other factors that help mosquitos to exist or even to dwell sometimes. Mosquitos of Anopheles, Aedes and Culex is widespread in most of the Nile River basin countries. Moreover, there are natural, physical and human factors that contribute to widespread and increasing numbers of mosquitos. Accordingly, it is important to pay attention to such a research topic to prevent the many diseases that develop into epidemics in some regions of the Nile Basin countries. It is also necessary to work hard to eradicate these transmitted diseases through a single method, which is disease vector control in general and mosquito control in particular.
