How To Protect Yourself & Your Family From Mosquitoes

Mosquitoes are considered to be one of the most dangerous insects in the world. These tiny creatures are responsible for millions of malaria and dengue cases each year. The problematic part comes down to the fact that their population keeps increasing by folds every day. There has been an increase in mosquito pest control services or mosquito pest control treatment every year.

Mosquitoes are also known to spread a host of diseases like:

  • Chikungunya
  • West Nile
  • Zika virus etc.

Here are some of the tips that you can follow to protect yourself and your family from mosquitoes.

  1. Clothing
  2. Cover your babies and children from mosquitoes by covering them in full clothing. By full clothing, we mean full-sleeves upper half and lower half. Covering their strollers and carriers with mosquito netting can also take you a long way. If you are using an insect repellent on a kid, make sure that you use a non-expired product, the correct quantity, keep it out of their reach and follow the label instructions properly.

  3. Loose clothing
  4. Wear loose clothing that covers your arms and legs. Wearing full sleeves is fine but if the clothes are skin tight, you might face other issues like suffocation, rashes and red marks. Apart from that, mosquitoes can bite through the thin clothing. So, it is better that you prefer comfort and health whilst going outdoors or in an open air ground or gathering.

  5. Indoors
  6. You can use screens on windows and doors. So, if you see any holes in the screens, repair it immediately and keep the mosquitoes outdoors. You can see holes when you see sunlight seeping in through them. Again, we'll highly suggest booking for pest control services for mosquitoes or mosquito pest control services.

  7. Outdoors
  8. It is important to know that mosquitoes can breed in just 14 days. So, in order to stop them from laying eggs, empty the flower pots containing all the water, throw out items that contain or hold water like tires, buckets, planters etc. Here also, we'll highly suggest booking pest control services for mosquitoes or mosquito pest control.

  9. While sleeping
  10. Use an air-conditioner or try to sleep under a mosquito netting. The netting can be used when you are in a room that does not contain screens. To clear out your confusion, the mosquito net has fine holes to let the air easily pass by and not suffocate you. At the same time, it is small enough to keep the mosquitoes away.

  11. Use a repellent
  12. Use the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) repellents. It can be in the form of a paper, a cream, a spray etc. If you are using sunscreen, then you should apply the sunscreen first and then insect repellent.

  13. Essential oils
  14. There are a lot of essential oils like Lavender, Lemon, Eucalyptus, Neem etc. that can aid in getting rid of them. You simply have to mix some droplets in some water and diffuse it in rooms and spaces.

What works the best?

All of the above mentioned tips are for the short term. If you really want to get rid of them for a long period of time and in a cost-effective manner, we'd highly suggest getting pest control services for mosquitoes or mosquito pest control services. They are better because:

- The technicians are trained and know their jobs.
