Not practical : It's nearly impossible to prevent all mosquito exposures. However, you can minimize exposure. Wear insect repellent, long sleeves and pants; use mosquito netting where appropriate; eliminate sources of stagnant water near your home; and, avoid being outside around dusk and dawn when mosquitos are most active. Hope this helps. I'm sure there are many other countermeasures i've overlooked.

Some ideas: 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.
