The mosquito emoji (π¦) depicts a small, dark insect with long legs and delicate wings, symbolizing annoyance and illness. Commonly associated with disease transmission, it's often used in discussions about malaria, dengue fever, and Zika virus outbreaks. A striking example of its cultural impact is the phrase "mosquito bite" used to describe minor irritations in life. Beyond its pestilent reputation, the mosquito plays a role in ecological balance, underscoring its complex significance. Just remember: in some regions, it's a light-hearted reminder to pack the insect repellent! The emoji version is 11, released in 2018.
