I seriously doubt Minneapolis has more mosquitos than Miami.
That being said, there is mosquito control. There is no "cold control."
There is definitely more mosquitos in Minneapolis than Miami. Try to eat outdoors in both places. I would be swatting them in Minneapolis, I would hear them buzzing by my ear. It's all those lakes that they have dotting their city.
Here in Miami, I don't hear them, I don't swat them, I never been bitten by them.

That doesn't show that the mosquito problem is worse than it is in Miami. Miami obviously has conditions that allow for mosquito reproduction for a much greater portion of the year (all of it basically).

To do so you need standing, FRESH water. Miami has none of that until you're in the far west portions bordering the everglades. Maybe only there is the mosquito problem similar to Minneapolis. I don't know, I don't go there since there is no reason for me to be there, that's all suburbia.
Here in Miami Beach, there is no fresh water from them to reproduce. No mosquitos whatsoever.
Same is true when you cross the mainland into the urban sections of Miami (Brickell to Wynwood). Again I'm there all the time, eating outside, never had a problem with it.
I have been to Minneapolis, and I couldn't tolerate sitting outside at night. Do you not trust me, do you have anything to go by except the very basic: Miami is warm so it has to have more mosquitos?

I've lived in Palatka, Daytona, Orlando, Deltona and traveled extensively throughout the state and I'll take a handful of non-existent mosquitos any day up north
I've lived in NYC and Indiana and both certainly had good things about them ( Indiana has Indiana U Basketball). I still love visiting NYC great city.
Fort he last 16 years I've lived in Rockport, Texas in Aransas County Texas ( pop. 26,000). It's a peninsula on the Gulf Coast-more beach and water front than people. It's quite a friendly place, many retirees, and it only freezes an average of a couple of hours every other year or so (usually around 4:30 AM). There is a bit of snow every 3 years or so. There is no State Income Tax, NO traffic-- well I consider it traffic when a car comes by and yells out the window "Twiz Please move over ( dog likes to nap on the pavement). Violent crime is rare but usually intrafamily. There are no unsafe streets. Rockport is environmentally liberal but otherwise conservative.
I don't like crime, really cold weather, high taxes and traffic - all items people like to ***** about- so why do you stay?
Cause we have far better beaches lol. Yeah we can only use them in the summer, but the mud covered sand and brown ocean water of Texas beaches is very unappealing compared to blue green water up here and white sand.
Oh, and the record low in Brownsville, TX all the way at the bottom of the state is 12F. So just wait eventually the brutal cold will come down on your area and kill all those palm trees like it did in the 1980's. Texas can get very cold.
