Answer

Why are warm, still evenings in Mallorca a bigger mosquito risk?

Mosquitoes are often more active on warm, windless evenings, which makes outdoor time feel less comfortable and increases bite risk. In Mallorca, that can matter especially in places with gardens, ports or quiet residential areas near standing water. Simple protection is usually enough, but those conditions are worth taking seriously.
