It is mostly spread by the female Anopheles mosquito. It also can be spread by infected blood.
malaria is spread through mosquitos. They drink a person's blood, and malaria is a blood-borne disease. Malaria is more prevalent in hot and tropical areas.
Malaria is spread by female mosquitoes. The parasite which causes malaria is found in the female mosquitoes saliva. When a person is bitten by a female mosquito, the parasite enters the bloodstream via the mosquitoes saliva.

However, there are also other ways for malaria to be spread. A pregnant woman can pass malaria onto her baby. Someone using a needle that has been used by a person with malaria can infect that person. Having a blood transfusion from someone who has malaria can also pass it on to someone else.

Also if there is a person who used the same toiletries as one who as malaria then it can also be spread that way too, as one or person is using the same thing which means that they are passing each others germs and illnesses to one another
By mosquitoes
Malaria is an infectious disease which is caused by parasites. Malaria is carried by the female mosquito (not the male), and is found in their saliva. When a mosquito drinks your blood, this parasite can be transferred into your bloodstream. Pregnant women can pass malaria onto their baby and can also be passed if someone has a blood transfusion. Needles used by a person with malaria can also cause the spread of the disease, if someone else uses the same needle without cleaning it properly first.
