Midges stay in groups primarily for protection from predators and to enhance mating opportunities. Being in a swarm helps them evade threats, as the density can confuse predators. Additionally, grouping together increases the likelihood of finding mates, as many species engage in swarming behavior during mating seasons. This social behavior also aids in thermoregulation and locating suitable habitats.
