NO-SEE-UM: INTERESTING FACTS​

  • The scientific name Ceratopogonidae is from the Greek words 'Keratos', meaning horns, and 'Pogon', meaning beard. The name may refer to the adult male's hairy antennae.
  • The adult stage is most prevalent in the months of June and July.
  • Many species of the Ceratopogonidae genera, especially the Culicoides genus, tend to bite humans. The bites can be very irritating, painful, and can even leave lasting lesions on some people.
  • Due to their small size, they can often climb through screen doors and get into homes; this makes them very troublesome for some people.
  • They are commonly known as 'biting midges'.
  • A few species are parasites that live on the outside of their host's body (making them 'ectoparasites'), and some species may also transmit diseases.
