Biloxi Gutter Installation Pros has published a guide to mosquitoes in gutters for Biloxi, MS homes at https://gutterinstallationbiloxims.com/blog/mosquitoes-in-gutters-biloxi/. The short answer is that a clogged or low-pitched trough holds still water for days after rain, and still water is the one thing mosquitoes need to breed. Clear the clog, restore the pitch, and the nursery is gone. The guide covers homes in Woolmarket (39532) and Back Bay (39530).It starts with the clog. Leaves, longleaf pine needles, and roof grit knit together into a soggy dam, and every rain leaves a shallow pool sitting behind it. A female mosquito does not need a pond — as little as a bottle cap of water is enough to lay eggs in. The eggs hatch within a day or two in warm weather, the larvae feed on the organic matter in the water, and the adults emerge in about a week to ten days. A single run left clogged for a month can raise several batches back to back, and because the water is up at the roofline, homeowners never see the larvae wriggling in it.
Biloxi makes the conditions worse in three specific ways. First, the rain: the city gets 64 to 65 inches a year, much of it in heavy bursts, so a trough that drains slowly is refilled before it ever dries out. Second, the warmth: the breeding season runs long on the Coast, and a warm spell after any storm is enough for a full cycle. Third, the pines: Woolmarket, the Popps Ferry corridor, and Cedar Lake sit under longleaf pines that drop needles year-round, and a needle mat is the dam that holds the water. The one thing that saves a gutter is movement — a gutter that drains properly after every rain is not a nursery.
