When am I most likely to get bitten by a mosquito?
Mosquitos are most active from dusk through to early sunrise. Use bite avoidance measures such as insect repellents, mosquito coils, and nets as well as wearing long, loose fitting clothes to prevent bites. Higher concentrations of DEET (the active ingredient in repellents) are recommended for wet conditions, hot environments or if you suffer from excessive perspiration (when there is a greater chance of it being washed away).
