The number of mosquitoes that are actually capable of causing infection in humans is relatively small, but it is always advisable to take preventive measures to protect yourself.
- Wear mosquito repellent containing up to 30% DEET (10% for children).
- Wear long sleeve shirts and pants.
- Avoid outdoor activity at peak mosquito feeding times (dawn and dusk).
- Eliminate water-holding containers (buckets, tires, etc.) from your property.This will reduce numbers of several mosquito species.
