Product Description

US Customs and Border Protection – Laredo Air Operations Patch

Los Moscos — the Mosquitoes of the Laredo border.

CBP Air Operations in Laredo, Texas, patrols one of the most active smuggling corridors on the U.S.-Mexico border. Known by their unit nickname "Los Moscos" — The Mosquitoes — the Laredo Air Operations team conducts aerial detection, monitoring, and interdiction missions over the South Texas brush country, where smuggling networks attempt to move contraband and people across the Rio Grande. The Mosquito nickname reflects the unit's persistent, relentless presence in the skies above the border — always buzzing, always watching, always ready to strike. The Laredo sector's flat, thorny terrain presents unique operational challenges that demand skilled pilots and sharp-eyed sensor operators.

Perfect For:
CBP Laredo Air Operations personnel, Air and Marine Operations agents, South Texas border enforcement professionals, federal law enforcement aviators, and CBP unit patch collectors.

Los Moscos never stop buzzing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right backing?

If you want to swap patches on/off gear, choose hook & loop (velcro). If you’re attaching permanently to uniforms or fabric, choose sew-on. If you want quick application on compatible fabric, choose iron-on / heat seal (when offered). Backing options are shown on the page and update based on the variant you select.

What size is this item?

Size is shown on the product page and updates with the variant you select (example: 3"). If you’re mounting on a hat or small panel, choose smaller sizes; for plate carriers and display boards, larger sizes fit better.

Are these Officially Licensed?

If the product is officially licensed, it will say “Officially Licensed” in the title and/or in the product details. If it doesn’t, it’s still a legitimate product—just not part of a licensed program.

Do you offer bulk or reruns for units/squadrons?

Yes. If you see a note like “bulk reruns available,” that means we can support group orders or reruns. If you don’t see it, contact us with the unit/squadron and quantity and we’ll confirm options.

Can you make a custom patch / name tag / lanyard / apparel?

Yes—custom solutions are available (patches, name tags, lanyards, apparel). Use the custom request page and include artwork, size, backing preference, and quantity.
