What you can do:

As part of its "Fight the Bite" campaign the Health District recommends the 3 Ds of mosquito safety. 

• Drain standing water in flower pots, pet dishes or clogged gutters so mosquitoes don’t have a place to breed and treat water that can’t be drained

• Defend by using an EPA-approved insect repellent

• Dress in long sleeves and pants when outdoors.
