\"\"<\/a>The unusually hot weather in Malaysia lately not only attracts more mosquitoes but also brings about a rise in cases of dengue fever.\u00a0 The heat shortens the life cycle of mosquitoes from one week (which is normal life span) to less than that and, this, in turn, causes them to bite us more frequently as well as aggressively.<\/p>\n

Below are some of the prevention tips (both orthodox and unorthodox methods) that can help you ward off those vexatious and disease-ridden mosquitoes:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>(i) Avoid wearing dark-colored clothes because mosquitoes are attracted to them.<\/p>\n

(ii) Stay away from beer\u00a0in\u00a0that\u00a0mosquitoes crave for beer drinkers, in particular.\u00a0 To be\u00a0utterly safe, stay sober at all times and avoid any alcoholic beverages.\u00a0 At any rate, treat this as an urban legend.<\/p>\n

(iii) Mosquitoes love to come out from dusk to dawn.\u00a0 So it’s best to stay indoors protectively when night falls.<\/p>\n

(iv) Mosquitoes are attracted to floral scent emitted by the nectars of plants.\u00a0 Hence, it is best to stay away from places grown with fragrant flowers.<\/p>\n

(v) Rub\u00a0orange and lemon peels\u00a0all over the exposed areas of your body to keep the mosquitoes away.<\/p>\n

(vi) Grow some specific mosquito-repelling plants in your yard.\u00a0 Plants that mosquitoes hate are Citronella, Lemon Balm, Catnip, Marigold, Basil, Lavender, Peppermint, Garlic, Pennyroyal, Rosemary, and Geranium.<\/p>\n
