DEET – Use insect repellent containing DEET.
DRESS – Dress in long sleeves and pants when you’re outside.
DAWN, DAYTIME and DUSK – Dawn, Daytime, and Dusk are the times when mosquitoes are most active. Avoid being outside during these
times of day to prevent bites.DRAIN – Regularly drain standing water, including water that collects in empty cans, tires, buckets, clogged rain gutters, and saucers under potted plants. Mosquitoes breed in stagnant water.
DOCTOR – Consult your physician if you feel sick after being bitten.
Please call 311 to report abandoned property, high grass, or standing water.
