Is it true that the Aedes mosquito does not bite at night?

The Aedes mosquito is generally day-biting and most active during daylight hours, with peak biting at dawn (soon after sunrise) and dusk (just before sunset). However, in Singapore’s well-lit urban environment, the Aedes mosquito may also bite at night, as it could adapt to artificial lighting.
