HOW TO PREVENT
Pick up and haul away all trash piles, broken
down washing machines, junk cars, bottles and
cans, and related items from around houses

Avoid having open water areas or containers
around the house such as puddles, open water
tanks, damaged water pipes, tires, etc. that might
breed mosquitoes

Fill tree holes with mortar

Drill holes in the bottom of tire swings

Empty or change water in pet dishes, bird baths, horse
troughs, etc. at least once a week

Keep roof gutters clean

Avoid accumulation of decaying material and garbage in and
