Infected mosquitoes spread West Nile virus that can cause serious, life-altering, and even fatal disease. Most people infected with the virus have no symptoms or they have flu-like symptoms. Sometimes it can cause severe illness, resulting in hospitalisation and even death.

It is important to know the symptoms and methods to minimize the infection risk, especially if virus activity is reported in an area near you.

Here are some tips to avoid mosquitos:

Mosquito Attack

  1. Mosquitoes are attracted to dark colours. When outdoors, wear light clothing that covers most of the body.
  2. They are also attracted by some body odours. Avoid fragrances in soaps, shampoos, and lotions.
  3. Many species of mosquito prefer biting from dusk until dawn. The problem is worse when the weather is hot or humid. Avoid playing outdoors during the peak biting times in your area.
  4. Try to stay away from still water.
  5. The most effective out-door mosquito repellers are DEET (N,N-diethyl meta-toluamide), picaridin, and oil of lemon eucalyptus (Repel)
  6. Use ucalyptus containing anti mosquito patches when you are out door(no any side effect)
  7. Use mosquito net in high endemic areas (most effective).
  8. Insect killer traps are the most effective for indoor use.
