Definitely not true for me (sure wish it was). Lived in Hilo for decades with shady trees and abundant mosquitoes which loved and irrtated the heck out of me and still do when I'm down there. Minimal mosquitoes here in Fern Forest, I presume the lower temps discourage them, but cleaning gutters and other water catchers is a good practice.
