    Aedes albopictus—also called the Asian tiger mosquito-- is a mosquito that can transmit the viruses that cause dengue fever. The female mosquito lays eggs in water holding containers around or further away from homes, treeholes and bamboo internodes. It bites people, pets and wild animals. This species can survive year round in tropical and subtropical climates.
