Although these insects typically only live for one to two weeks, their impact can be deadly. The female mosquito feeds on human blood and carries deadly diseases such as the West Nile virus.

Not under normal conditions. They will be seen picking at plants but they are actually eating bits of algae etc that are on the plants.
When do mosquitoes lay eggs all year?
Mosquitoes lay eggs (after sucking the blood of other animals) when it is warm and wet out, which is usually during the spring time, during a wet summer, or even during the fall. Standing water is a must for mosquitoes in order to be able to have their eggs hatch into larvae, go into pupae stage and then turn into adults.

What is the treatment for dengue fever?
As of now, there are no specific dengue treatments and the best is symptomatic treatment. Taking plenty of rest in bed, drinking lots of fluids and maintaining a healthy diet can help a great deal in managing dengue symptoms.
The symptoms like fever and aches and pains that accompany dengue fever are treated with separate medications to provide relief to the patient from related sufferings.
In case you suffer from dengue hemorrhagic fever, hospitalization is the only option where supportive treatments like intravenous fluids are administered to prevent shock.
For more information about dengue fever and its treatment, see the related links section below.
What can you do if you want to reduce the mosquito population?
the dragonfly nymph eats mosquitos in all life stages, so you could always overpopulate your front yard with them. In terms of keeping the mosquitos away from you, Walgreenz and other drug stores sell a wide selection of repellents.
What is the easiest way to ground and center oneself spiritually?
New answer
another view, not in disagreement, but another view.
Yoga, Tai Chi, and planting/growing wheat grass for my cats in a small pot on the counter. I guess I am a believer in moving meditation reading that short list to myself just now.
When I am out of whack, I go back to those three.
I try not to get distracted by coming up with other official methods for myself, as being centered to me is not being scattered.
At the same time, other things enhance centered-ness for me-- such as looking at the stars, watching the ocean, getting in the ocean, hiking, feeling nature, feeling the sun warm my body for five minutes, taking strolls (different by far from power-walking, which might serve another purpose). Chopping vegetables for a stew, soup or other type of dish is another winner.
I clean out clutter annually, (my month for this is October, I'm not sure why I picked that month for certain). And I never clean out all my clutter, for some reason.
I practice a fairly intense hot room yoga and am best if I practice my Tai Chi on my own and not just during my once a week class.
I practice being centered not because I am that way by nature, but by desire. It is the way I prefer to live, but sometimes I forget. That is why I have a short, three item list.
Being centered is a very personal activity. Some people seem to be centered by nature, without any direct conscious effort. I am not that type of person.
I know it when I feel it, which is the other suggestion I would give-- try and feel centered and as relaxed as possible. One's ability and the availability for one to be centered and more relaxed is limitless, so feel as much of it as you can is what I try and remind myself.
Do something kind.

The best approach is to admit your right to know. Set about to learn about more of yourself and seek first the kingdom of heaven and all else will begin to be added. My progression really began when I said to myself, I will know. I know there is a system available that will allow me to understand the whole set up and I will have it, now where is it. At that point I didn't know what it was called or who had the information, but by me implementing that intention, I found it or it found me, and I began. They taught me about undivided attention, concentration, listening and remembering skills and meditation. At the same time I was given information on the universal laws, how they work and how to work within them. It was a study about me, where I came from, where am I going, and where I am now in relation to where I am going. I began to understand the why of it all, and through my own resulting experiences, I was able to prove to myself the validity of the system. It was the hardest thing I ever did, but by far the most worthwhile. Sorry, but the good stuff is not easy to have, but it is available as I have proven. It does get easier after the practice of much discipline.
If you are looking to ground yourself in terms of being more in tune with the physical plane rather than drifting off into the spiritual, the way to ground yourself is simple....try to be a part of this physical plane. I.e .. when you meditate, try to focus something to keep you from drifting off....if that is too hard, try staring at something or chant a mantra,...do some chi kong/yoga..that will help a lot as you will need to focus your attention on yourself whilst maintaining a clear sense of mind and these will help build your base chakra. The base chakra is pretty important. It's like this...if your crown chakra is overworked...it's like you're trying to hold a balloon that just wants to wonder off into nowhere. But having a good base chakra gives you a strong hand, and control over this balloon.

Is there a food chain with a mosquito in?
I found this website on the topic - http://www.gi.alaska.edu/ScienceForum/ASF7/723.html
Below is the text cut and pasted:
n these ecology-minded days, we are constantly reminded that everything has its place, and to disturb a single thread in Nature's fabric is to risk unraveling us all. Every link in the food chain is vital, we learn. Yet, during the moist days of early summer, it is difficult to find even the most dedicated environmentalist who will stand up for the pesky mosquito. Who needs it? What is it good for? Why was it ever invented? Even people who enjoy the graceful flight of swallows admit the birds can eat other insects--and note that mosquitoes are eager to dine on nestling swallows. A rather sketchy off-the-cuff sampling of opinions from several experts within the university system reveals that nobody is really sure what would happen if all the mosquitoes on earth were to disappear overnight. Since we'll never know, I'd like to list just a couple of the more interesting comments that I received. Dr. Richard (Skeeter) Werner, an entymologist with the Institute of Northern Forestry, feels that the mosquito probably plays its most important function as an aquatic link in the food chain of fish while it is still in its larval and pupal stages. Dr. Mark Oswood, a biologist with the University's Institute of Arctic Biology, agrees that the aquatic stages of the mosquito are probably when they are the most valuable in the animal food chain, and he also includes wading birds such as cranes as animals whose diets they supplement. Mosquitoes are also important pollinators, as a large part of their diet consists of plant nectar. But as a product in the animal food chain, Oswood puts the matter into neat perspective when he says that mosquito larvae might be pictured as: "small machines that transform algae, bacteria and organic matter into compact packages of protein." I forgot to ask what they transformed my blood into.
Does tea keep mosquitoes away?
Yes, it actually does.
You will not find any mosquitoes around a field growing tea. The smell of tea repels them.
You can drink tea to act as a repellent as the tea will be present in your sweat, repelling mosquitoes. You can also dampen some tea and leave it near doors and windows to keep them away. Though it might be strange to the neighbours seeing teabags hanging from your doors on string.
They are excellent crappie bait. Bass, catfish, bream and other fish eat them as well.
