When is mosquito season?

The northeastern United States is a high-risk mosquito-borne illness region.  Is there a defined mosquito season?

If being in the field of mosquito bite prevention has taught me one thing, it is that most people inaccurately label summertime as “mosquito season.”  While we do see more mosquitoes in the summer, this is not mosquito season.  Nature brings them out when the time is just right – but not only in the summer.
