Mosquito Facts

Here are a few facts that you should need to think about these nasty small bugs:

• Mosquitos existed because the dinosaur era which was 400 million years ago
• They can develop from eggs to adults in only six to ten times
• They are discovered near still water Where their hatchlings feed and create
• They appear to be drawn to dark colours
• Mosquitos will commonly bite you at dawn or nightfall – since they mostly attack at night. That is when their inner clocks tell them it is feeding time
• Mosquitos are attracted to heat and they find lactic acid alluring, thus, would tend to bite people who’d just exercised
• Larger people often attract more mosquitos because they generate higher carbon dioxide and lactic acid

Avoiding Mosquito Bites

There are simple approaches you can hold secure and keep away from a range of the fitness risks associated with mosquito and midge bites:

• Avoid bright colours – don’t wear bright colours or use powerful scents such as perfumes and deodorants as such attract insects.
• Wear clothes that cover most parts of your body such as long sleeves, pants, footwear and hats
• Use insect repellent sprays – on vulnerable skin and repelling candles or items when sitting
• Avoid areas with water – keep clear of slow-moving or stagnant or still water.
• Tuck pants into socks – when hiking through brush or rough grass and avoid brushing through long grass or bushes

Top Tips to Keep Mosquitos at Bay

Mozzies are synonymous with Australia but that does not mean we love it. There are a few matters you can do around your own home or business to rescue you from those pesky pests:

• Keep home windows shut – after dark, maintain doors and windows shut or block out the light with curtains
• Insect screens – fit fly screens to windows
• Clear up – clear up dead mosquitos, as they provide a tasty snack for other pests such as carpet beetles
• Cover water – cover water butts with well fitted lids to prevent mosquito larvae from the water
• No standing water – don’t leave standing water (in watering jars for example ) as this gives mosquitos a spot to breed
• Natural predators – if you’ve got a garden pond, consider getting some goldfish as they will eat mosquito larvae
• Natural repellents – use natural repellents, for example, citronella, neem oil, peppermint oil, lemon eucalyptus oil, witch hazel, garlic, lavender and vanilla focus
