Tips
- Eliminate any stagnant water from your property. These are ideal breeding sites for mosquitoes.
- Keep vegetation trimmed to prevent mosquito resting sites during daytime hours.
- Purchase fish that feed on mosquito larvae for ponds on your property, such as Gambusia fish.
- Use mosquito repellents that contain DEET. Be advised that products containing Permethrin are for clothing only.
- Avoid the outdoors after dusk; mosquitoes are most active from dusk until dawn. If outside after dark, wear long pants and a long shirt.
