Table 4: Temperature threshold for the incubation of mosquitoes [24].

Temperature (Degrees Celsius) Effects on Malaria Transmission
>25 Very important for mosquito lifecycles and must be maintained for a minimum of nine days.
20-30 Needed temperature for transmission of malaria
20-27 The incubation of malaria shortens
<=16 or >=30 The rate of malaria is negatively affected
