Come prepared.
The number of mosquitoes that are actually capable of causing infection in humans is relatively small, but it is always advisable to take preventive measures to protect yourself.
-
Wear mosquito repellent containing up to 30% DEET (10% for children).
-
Wear long sleeve shirts and pants.
-
Avoid outdoor activity at peak mosquito feeding times (dawn and dusk).
