Mosquitoes
Mosquitoes can spread diseases to humans such as Ross River virus, Dengue Fever, Zika virus and Malaria. Heartworm in dogs is also transmitted by mosquitoes. Some mosquitoes are active during the day but most are active around dusk. Your chances of being bitten by mosquitoes at this time are very high. The best way to control mosquito diseases is to protect yourself from being bitten and prevent mosquitoes from breeding.
