Mosquito Control –Take responsibility for your own health by following these suggestions from The Texas Department of State Health Services to protect yourself and your family from mosquitoes:

· DRAIN any standing water in your yard – Mosquitoes love to breed in stagnant water. This includes pools, broken flower pots or other open containers, clogged rain gutters, and bird baths. Empty buckets, bowls, tires, unused bird baths and non-circulating water fountains where water may become stagnant.

· DRESS in long sleeves and pants if you are outside and mosquitoes are active. For extra protection, spray clothing and exposed body areas with repellent.

· DUSK/DAWN is when mosquitoes are most active. Try your best to stay indoors! If going out, use repellent.

DEET is an ingredient to look for in your insect repellent.  Other acceptable
