Read full article: Did Februaryās freeze kill all the mosquitos, fleas & ticks?SAN ANTONIO ā Weāve seen how the February freeze hurt our plant, bat and fish populations, but how will it impact our insects? Molly Keck, an entomologist with the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service in Bexar County, says for most local insects the freeze wonāt impact them. And to answer the question about the pesky mosquitos....she says no, the freeze didnāt kill all the mosquitos and fleas. āWhat usually affects them more than constant cold weather is when we have up and down cold snaps and it warms up. She says if we have a wet spring, weāll see more mosquitos, ticks and fleas.
