‘Fight the [Mosquito] Bite’

Did you know that as little as a bottle cap of water is enough for mosquitoes to breed? Please continue to check outdoor areas around your home and apartment and eliminate standing water.

• Empty out water from containers, potted plant saucers and birdbaths at least weekly.
• Clean out roof gutters and corrugated downspouts.
• Fix dripping outdoor faucets and get rid of puddles near air conditioning units.
