**Micro**-simulation with Behavioral States +blargh! + Mosquito movement plays an important role in malaria transmission dynamics and vector control. This software was developed to explore mosquito population dispersal, the spatial dynamics of mosquito populations, and malaria transmission dynamics on *point sets,* which we call *micro-simulation.* The idea of micro-simulation was described by the late Richard Carter (Carter, 2002)^[Carter R (2002) Spatial simulation of malaria transmission and its control by malaria transmission blocking vaccination.
