Mosquitoes

Pests are all over us, insects, bugs, rats, you name it, but mosquitoes on the other hand have a special place in our heart for how much we love to zap them or kill them, because they are definitely annoying and makes our life harder with their wings sound buzzing on our ears while we are asleep, and additionally giving us their itchy bites.

Blood suckers

Vampires or bloodsuckers in general? what do you want to call those bloodsucking little flying vampires? They are hunting for our blood just so they can reproduce which is fine, but as for the bites that itches and turns red, it is not very pleasant and we should definitely kill them and take care of them for good and keep them outside of our houses and rooms, and take the precautions to keep them outside most of the time.

Can't we get rid of them once and for all?

You might think that in our times and with the technology available we can safely say that getting rid of mosquitoes is as easy as turning on a radar that is anti-mosquitoes or maybe fire radioactive technology or vibrations to kill the mosquitoes, but that is not yet available or might not even be created anytime sooner or later, which is why we get only use toxic or poisonous materials that kills those pests at home, another method is to buy a light that zapps or electric shocks the bloodsuckers when they reach it.

Minimizing the problem

Yes, minimizing the problem can be done and achieved by simple technics or ways to combat the mosquitoes, one of them is wearing light colored clothing like the white color, because mosquitoes are attracted to dark colors like black, and how much CO2 you produce or exhale, since they can detect the CO2 from our breath and are attracted to it, but we can not stop breathing, so try opening the window with an anti-flies sheet cover to keep them out of your room, another way to reduce the pests inside is to have a pet spider that creates webs and eats the flies keeping them away from your home, but if you have a phobia against spiders or the solution is too creepy for you then just pass.

Mosquitoes types

There are literally plenty of types of mosquitoes in the world and to name some of them like the yellow fever mosquito or the Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes or Culex, fancy names for the blood thirsty flies. Some of the mosquitoes are dangerous and they can cause you harm or pain when they bite you, and malaria is one common disease in Anopheles that gets transmitted from the female pest to human beings, and this type is found in Africa in the sub-sahara area. One more disease out of many is chikungunya which is also a dangerous disease that can be transmitted from the same type of mosquitoes found in Africa.
