Organized Ways to Defend Yourself Against Mosquitos



If you (or someone in your family) tend to get a lot of mosquito bites when you're outside, take some measures this week to protect yourself. Here are a few tips:

1. Wear light-colored clothing. Mosquitos are drawn to dark colors. And the more skin you have covered, the better.

2. Remove standing water...which is a breeding ground for mosquitos.

3. Don't wear scented products. Mosquitos love perfume, cologne, perfumed shampoos, scented detergents, etc.

4. Use fans. Mosquitos don't fly well when fans are on. If eating outside, place fans around to help blow them away.

5. Avoid peak mosquito hours. I know...it's fun to be outdoors at night in the summer...but not as fun when you come home and you're itching for hours.

6. Use insect repellant. I'm really not a fan of harsh chemicals, but if I'm going to be outside when mosquitos are out, I use insect repellant with DEET. I know...not everyone is a fan, and again, I find it's better to not be outside at mosquito-meal-time...but if I have to be out at that time, this type of repellent is very effective for me. I'm definitely a mosquito magnet. Be sure you shower it all off when you're back home.

7. Have the professionals spray your yard if you live someplace where the mosquito population is unbearable.
