El Town hall de Jávea warns the population of the presence of the tiger mosquito in the municipality, an invasive species from Asia that is especially active during the hot months. Small in size, it differs from other species by its back with black and white stripes. In addition, it is active during the day and prefers to bite people aggressively and massively, causing painful and persistent bites.
Unlike other species, the ideal habitat for the tiger mosquito breeding are small sheets of water at elevated temperatures, so that private collaboration is essential to halt their presence. Besides helping to eradicate, to prevent suck in our property we will be the first beneficiaries because its range is short.
Tips to curb their presence
Avoid the small standing water (diced, pot dishes, vases, drinking fountains, fountains, sinks, ornamental ponds or small ponds). tightly cover water tanks for irrigation and wells or cisterns. Circulate water fountains or ponds and take them goldfish that eat mosquito larvae. Eliminate or to shield objects that can collect rainwater. Change the water regularly to plants and pets.
Do not draw
It is advised to use repellents, especially in the legs, usually because the insect sting in areas of the body closest to the ground. Maintain good personal hygiene (sweating and strong odors invite you to itch) and do not wear perfume dulzones. It is convenient to use mosquito nets and insect appliances. Try to stay away from areas where there is standing water untreated.
Wear clothing that covers the skin: long sleeves, long pants and socks and avoid dark and bright colors which attract mosquitoes. In addition, it is advisable to shake clothes before use if we have tended abroad. Leave the light off if we have the window open as mosquitoes come to light.
If they suffer some bite is recommended to wash and disinfect the area before applying any lotion or ointment recommended by your doctor or pharmacist.
