Time of day has no bearing on you contracting the disease. If you live in the tropics you can get it anytime .If you don’t ,find something else to worry about.
The feeding time for Malaria mosquitoes ( Anopheles specie ) is late at night and eral in the morning. And also that particular time, usually at 10 pm onwards, patient with malaria is at the height of their fever beacuse inside the body the malaria parasite ( Plasmodium ) is actively reproducing itself. Hope this helps.God bless
