A mosquito can fly at speeds of up to 2 km/h, and can fly for about one hour at a time before it needs to take a rest.
Because of its extremely light weight, a mosquito is extremely vulnerable to prevailing winds, and wind speed has an extreme effect upon the speed at which a mosquito can fly.
The mosquito can fly in one day distance of approximately 7 km, but usually does not stray too far from its stagnant water source that it relies upon.
