I always thought it was because the wind usually goes down at those time. At least that has been my observation.

I believe they don't like direct sunlight..they also are very active in forests where little sunlight reaches the floor, even during mid-day.

,!They love humidity(their larva develop into the water) so it 's obviuos humidity is not to be found while it's sunny!
