When mosquitoes will die in Richmond

But some good news: This could be the week the little 🤬s finally die, Times-Dispatch meteorologist Sean Sublette tells Axios.

• "I think Friday night or Saturday night have a legit shot to get below 30°F for four to five hours," Sublette said, and below freezing for several hours is exactly what's needed to kill them for good.

Be smart: Mosquitoes survive best when the temperature is between 50-95°F, and some species never die — they just burrow into trees and come out as the weather gets warm to find a "blood meal," Dobrinska said.
