Mosquitoes will bite, day and night, so protect yourself with these tips:

2
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:08,240
Keep mosquitoes outside by shutting doors and covering windows with screens.

3
00:00:08,460 --> 00:00:11,960
Use EPA-approved insect repellents anytime you're outdoors.

4
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:14,720
Cover your skin with long sleeves and pants.

5
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:18,580
Mosquitoes lay their eggs in water; just a bottlecap of water is all they need.

6
00:00:18,580 --> 00:00:23,660
So drain, refresh, or cover anything around buildings that can hold water, at least weekly,

7
00:00:23,660 --> 00:00:26,300
and put away outside items that aren't being used.
