So, I live in South Texas, and we are notorious for heat, humidity and Mosquitos. My new yearling Redfoots seem to love the heat and humidity in their shaded enclosure, however I worry that the Mosquitos may become bothersome for them. All my web research has turned up is articles related to Mosquitos threatening Galapagos Tortoises, but nothing these guys size. They tend to bury themselves pretty well at night, when the Mosquitos are most active.
Just looking for others who have dealt with a similar geographic situation and if your torts handled it fine or what you did to help them. Mine live in an enclosure that has 1/4" mesh on top, but the Mosquitos can obviously get through that if they were so enclined.
Thanks for any advice.
