Mosquito Facts

Here are some facts that you might want to know about these nasty little insects:

• Mosquitos existed because the dinosaur era which was 400 million years ago
• They can develop from eggs to adults in just six to ten times
• They are found near still water where their larvae feed and develop
• They seem to be drawn to dark colours
• Mosquitos will normally bite you at dawn or dusk – as they are mostly nocturnal and that’s when their internal 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 had just exercised
• Larger people often draw in more mosquitos since they produce higher carbon dioxide and lactic acid

Avoiding Mosquito Bites

There are easy ways you can be protected and avoid some of the health dangers related to mosquito and midge bites:

• Prevent vibrant shades – don’t wear vivid colors or use powerful scents such as perfumes and deodorants as those appeal to mosquitos
• Reduce exposed skin – wear long sleeves, trousers, footwear and hats
• Use insect repellent sprays — on exposed skin and repelling candles or products when sitting
• Avoid areas with water – stay away from moderate moving or still or rancid water
• Tuck trousers into socks – when hiking through brush or rough grass and avoid brushing through long grass or bushes

Top Tips to Keep Mosquitos at Bay

In Australia, it is uncommon for mosquitos or biting insects to transmit diseases. The main danger from mosquito bites is the potential skin irritation, which might further add risk for disease. Reaction to bites will differ from person to person. Symptoms that develop are only our immune system’s response to their saliva. Mosquitos do not actually inject anything when they bite. Mozzies are synonymous with Australia but that doesn’t mean we enjoy it. There are a few things you can do around your home or business to prevent these pesky pests:

• Keep home windows closed – after dark, maintain windows and doors closed or block out the mild with curtains
• Insect screens – fit fly displays to windows
• Clear up – clear up dead mosquitos, as they provide a tasty snack for other pests like carpet beetles
• Cover water – cover water butts with nicely outfitted lids to save you mosquito larvae within the water
• No stagnant water – do not leave standing water (in watering cans for example) as this provides mosquitos a place to breed
• Natural predators – if you’ve got a garden pond, try getting a couple of goldfish as they will eat mosquito larvae
• Natural repellents – utilise natural repellents, for instance, citronella, neem oil, peppermint oil, lemon eucalyptus oil, witch hazel, garlic, vanilla and lavender focus
