Shunning from mosquito bites

• Make sure that the surroundings of your home are tidy and clean. And they are free of items that contain water such as old tires, tin cans, drums, bottles, clogged rain gutters, buckets, and trash containers.

• When possible, make your kids wear long sleeves, long pants, and socks when outdoors.

• It is mandatory, to fill clean water in your water dishes, swimming pool covers and flower pots on regular basis.
  
  
• Think about staying at home in broad daylight, especially in early evening- which are the highest mosquito biting times.
  
  
• Place mosquito nets over toddler carriers whenever you are out in the open.
  
  
• Set up or fix your window and door screens so that mosquitoes cannot slip indoors.
