No, maggots are not the young of mosquitoes. Maggots are the larval stage of flies, particularly those in the family Calliphoridae, such as blowflies. Mosquitoes, on the other hand, undergo a different life cycle that includes egg, larval, pupal, and adult stages, with their larvae commonly referred to as "wigglers."
