Old news and there are plenty of structures that prevent enemy spawns. Workbenches being the most common and cheaper to make.

Well , i have a little plain farm island full of workbench to stop spawn and guess what , no one monster bothers me anymore , mosquitos not exist anymore there
And drakes and mosquitos spawns from the ground, not in mid air ( you can see this with drakes when you are close to a egg nest )
