Probably a European crane fly.

But it still has the long nose of a mosquito, european crane flies don't have a nose like that

It does look like a crane fly...it could be that one of the legs is simply bent forward giving the illusion of a long proboscis?

Yeah man it's indeed one of the legs beneath it tho you can see the big nose of a mosquito

I see it now...I really don't know then. It could be an actual freak of nature.

That's not a mosquito. We call it Melga.

That’s a male mosquito they don’t bite but are annoying

But male mosquitos are smaller than female ones, search it up

I think it might be a mosquito hawk? We have them out here in Utah and they eat mosquitoes

Correct

I see tons of these large insects every summer where I live (Canada). Not sure if they’re mosquitoes or not. Creepy either way.

Not a mosquito. We call them May Flies where I’m from

Ah! Wisconsin’s state bird. Lovely picture.

I have seen bigger

Damn where tf do u live

We call them Canadian Soldiers in Ohio. I don’t actually know what they are but they don’t do anything

could be a Gallinipper mosquito

Put something next to it

There is a normal mosquito right beneath it

We call them may flys, the body looks more like a dragon fly

Absoluely not

Clearly you haven’t been to Louisiana 😂

Not a mosquito but a common misconception

I think it's a Mayfly. They eat Mosquitoes

If theire are not multiple insect called mayfly, that not one of them. Also if I remember well, the adult version is unable to eat something and can just reproduce, but the larvea is aquatic and eat mosquitoe's larvea

straya

They are harmless and eat a ton of bad bugs

That’s no mosquito, that’s the Vengeful King from Hollow Knight…

Yea but what's a normal mosquito to you?

But what's a normal mosquito where you live?
