Mosquito checklist

When you reduce the opportunities of being bitten by mosquitoes, you greatly reduce the chances of irritation from mosquito bites, possible allergic reactions and secondary infections from scratching. Below are some simple tips:

Indoor mosquito control: limit the opportunities for mosquitoes to breed, by removing stagnant / standing water in plant pots, vases etc… and install insect screens to windows and doors.
Outdoor mosquito control: check areas such as guttering for blockages that could leave pools of stagnant water or dregs in watering cans, over watered plant pots, outside pet water bowls, even paddling pools and drain away the standing water, cover water butts with tight fitting lids to prevent mosquito larvae, if you have a pond try adding goldfish who will eat the mosquito larvae.

Mosquito Bites and Treatment

Mosquito bites are not usually painful, but the itchiness that follows a bite can cause some discomfort. There are simple ways you can keep safe and avoid some of the health risks associated with mosquito and midge bites.

How to Avoid Mosquito Bites

There is a greater risk of bites when you are outdoors and from dusk into night when many biting insects are most active.

Luckily, there are ways you can keep safe when you are out and about.

Avoid bright colours – Do not wear bright colours or use strong scents such as perfumes and deodorants as these attract insects.
Reduce exposed skin – Wear long sleeves, trousers, footwear and hats.
Use insect repellent sprays – On exposed skin and repelling products or candles when sitting.
Avoid areas with water – Keep clear of slow moving or still / stagnant water.
Tuck trousers into socks – When hiking through brush or rough grass and avoid brushing through long grass or bushes.
