The eggs float around until they stick to some grasses. It usually takes 2-3 days for the babies (wrigglers) to hatch. They eat very tiny plants and animals in the water. After they have eaten enough, the wrigglers become a pupa. Inside the pupa, they change from a wriggler into an adult mosquito in less than a week.
