What's the best trickto keep mosquitoes away while you sleep?

Screens & nets: Sleeping in houses with screens on windows or under a Permethrin treated bed net are the best way to avoid mosquitoes at night. Keep your sleeping area closed during the day so that mosquitoes cannot hide and come out to bite at night. Turn on the ceiling fan as mosquitoes cannot fly against a breeze.

Mosquito Net: There are many products on the market that can be used to kill mosquitoes to include Natural Attractant Mosquito Traps, Zappers and Flying insect traps. Different models have varying degrees of sophistication. Some use ultraviolet light to lure & then trap them. Others can generate heat and carbon dioxide to attract mosquitoes. They eventually become dehydrated and die.
