A few tips to avoid mosquito bites:
- Adopt good personal hygiene, as mosquitoes are attracted by body odors such as sebum and sweat. Certain perfumes also attract females.
- Keep skin exposure to a minimum: wear light-colored clothing, as mosquitoes are attracted by dark colors, which emit more heat.
- Avoid places near stagnant water: mosquitoes are numerous near places where they can lay their eggs. Consequently, try to eliminate stagnant water (buckets, dustbins, tires, containers, etc.), cover water tanks, drain water from tarpaulins, etc.
- Place a fan close to you: mosquitoes bite less on very windy days, because they can't fight air currents. Placing a low-speed fan on the balcony or in the bedroom will prevent them from entering or moving around properly.
- Protect yourself especially at the end of the day: mosquitoes are most active at the end of the day. Avoid being outdoors without protection during this period.
- Adopt a mosquito net: It's out of the question to sleep with your windows open. A mosquito net is an effective way of protecting yourself from mosquitoes while enjoying the fresh air outside. A few sprays of repellent can be applied to the screen for even greater protection.
