Run a fan

Change your bedsheets

Dead skin cells attract insects. Change your bedsheets often to prevent insects from getting into the bed and biting you during sleep..

Mosquito net

Keep the windows closed

Close the windows as it starts to get dark to prevent mosquitoes from entering your room and irritate you during sleep.

Light colored clothing

Mosquitoes are attracted to dark clothes. Wear light colours to avoid extra mosquito bites. Light colours not only help deter mosquitoes but also help you feel cooler by reflecting sunlight.

Keep dry

Empty buckets, flowerpots, play equipments, birdbaths, trash container that collects water. Look around your living area and get rid of any standing water.
