If you live on the 4th floor of a random building, are you likely to have fewer mosquitoes on your balcony?
You should. They actually don't usually fly higher then 10 feet, although wind might blow them higher.
Why are there so many mosquitoes in my room? How do I get rid of them?
Mosquitoes should be considered very seriously in order to get ir of them. If you see three or four of them, don’t take it lightly it doesn’t take much time to multiply and attack you.· Mosquitoes are mostly found in areas of high humidity and survive by sucking blood from human beings and animals.· They can also multiply where there are stagnant water (not flowing or moving).· It can also be seen in places with waste and garbage.How can you get rid of mosquitoes?· You have chemical repellants which prevents mosquito bites (with DEET 30-50% for adults and 10-30% for children).· Keep your home and surroundings neat and clean. Don’t allow water to get stagnant anywhere to avoid breeding of mosquitoes. Remove all the wastes and garbage on a daily basis.· Move plants which keep small pockets of water. As the can multiple from this plants, mosquitoes are attracted to it. You can also plant some mosquito repellant plants like citronella, catnip, tansy etc.· Put mosquito netting on the windows and doors. This can prevent mosquitoes from entering the home.· Spray insecticides which kill the adult mosquitoes as they are the ones who breed. This should be sprayed all the mosquito prone places.· Using yellow LED lights are also useful as the yellow lights are invisible to mosquitoes and therefore they do not follow the lights.· Mosquitoes are also attracted to sweet smells. There avoid using perfumes. Use garlic for cooking so that your sweat smells garlic and mosquitoes are repelled by it.There are many other ways in which people get rid of them. But chemical repellants are not appreciated as they come with many side effects. Use natural ways and keep your family and yourself healthy.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------For any Pest Control service consultation, feel free to call us on +91-9108284705 or visit www.unplan.in
How do I keep mosquitoes out of my bedroom at night?
After three years living in Thailand, I have a few suggestions.Mosquitoes are mostly active at night; but unlike their blood-sucking fantasy cousins, they are not afraid to come out during the day. So it's important to keep entrances to the room closed at all times. This means not leaving the door open, even for the time it takes to go for piss.To keep the room from getting stuffy, make some mosquito screens for the windows. Even if I was only staying for a couple for months I'd buy a mosquito net, cut it into large squares, and secure the pieces over the windows. You can just screw some hooks into the window frame and peg the net on; or tuck it into the frame - there's usually a lazy man's way, but proper screens are worth the effort too. This allows you to open the windows day or night for fresh air.Look for cracks under the door, or between the frames. Mosquitoes can get in through poor workmanship. Use a draft excluder to cover any gaps.Buy a mosquito swatter. These things are great fun anyway - I kill a hundred of the pests outside every day - finding their "lurking" places - just for payback. (I'm not going to heaven.)Before you go to sleep, take a turn around the room. Mosquitoes tend to chill out in dark spaces so use the swatter to pat around areas inside wardrobes, drawers, laundry baskets, etc. The swatter will zap them when they get disturbed. Dark coloured clothes are popular - blues especially. Sweep the room every day - after a short while you'll learn where all their favourite hang-outs are.Be especially careful at dusk and dawn when entering and exiting the room. Get into the habit of not leaving the door open for more than a second. For instance, don't stand in the doorway chatting to someone. In or out!Occasionally we'll get bitten, but for the most part our various rooms have been mosquito free by following these golden rules. It's worth the extra care required - all day - to stop them even getting in.

Do all Nigerians live in huts?
You ask a provoking questionHere in Nigeria we have just 3 problems: Rats, Mosquito and the Government. owning and living in beautiful houses is not one of them.I do not know the country you are living and I honestly do not care. I believe the western news agencies put food on their table by constantly telling the rest of the world how poor Nigeria and Africa-in-diaspora, is. Watch BBC and CNN, you will come to terms with what I am saying now. The world is being fed with fake, unfounded and poorly researched news from these news channels. Sorry to be so dramatic but it appears you are a victim too, just like other members of your family who live in big mansions.Now, Nigeria is a country of many colors, permit me to show you both colors below.The Western news stations will show you thesethese by the way looks sort of like the primary school I attendedThen I was born in something like these, I mean my mother gave birth to me in this sort of house and there was no form of child delivery complications you people face in your fancy hospitalsThise was a kind of my streetKind of the houses of my neighbors then who were mostly civil servantssomewhere in northern NigeriaThen there is this part too; the part CNN and BBC will never show you, if they do and constantly do, then they will go bankruptFor it is only those who have mastered the art of evil knows how to profit from itFolorunsho Alakija’s HutMike Adenuga’s HutDangote HutsEver seen these parts of Nigeria on CNN?P-Square’s HutThe blogger ‘ Linda Ikeji’ Hut.Lagos a city embarrassed with lots of poor HutsThen Abuja the headquarter of HutsI’m fooling myself by showing you these few huts when we have so many of them scattered in every city and even villages in Nigeria.

Do bats attack humans? I go out running and there are a few bats flying near trees. Is it risky, as they sometimes fly just in front of my head?
as wild animals go, bats are actually incredibly docile. they have no reason to attack you. and are even unlikely to nip while you scoop them out of their beds, hold out their wings to examine them (younger bats do not have such solid bones as fully grown, so by extending a wing and holding it to the light, you can tell if a bat is an adult or juvenile) etc. they are extremely tolerant, and very laid back about being handled by a very large (to them) animal. I’ve handled many bats during population surveys, and never been bitten. the old chap that was in charge was very old school, and unless it was the larger two breeds (still easily fit in the palm of your hand) he would tell you to take your gloves off or you won’t even feel them. and this is largely true. they are so small and light, if you put your hand into a bat box, taking one out to identify the species IS tricky with even light gloves on. and most bat species can’t bite through those gloves to the skin, a few would barely leave a scratch on your hand if they tried. this is NOT recommended practice. recommended practice is to always wear thick gloves if you are handling a bat, and for most people I’d advise it. but he felt that gloves made you less able to handle the smaller species competently. if a roost was in a site not likely to be used by one of the two larger (still small) species, then your hand was going in bare. I’ve never been bitten by a bat.now vampire bats, tiny little things, MAY feed on a human. you can’t really consider this an attack. there are health risks from the saliva, but the way they feed is not an attack. they have numbing and thinning agents in their saliva, and just cut a tiny scratch in the skin. they can double their weight in consumed blood (hence the name desmodus rotundus, as it makes them appear quite bloated) but to host animals, the amount is still tiny and insignificant, and barely even felt. mostly they feed from livestock. occasionally sleeping humans, who do not wake.interestingly, vampire bats have a highly mutually benefical social structure. bats that are unsuccessful, return to the roost and request that their roost mates regurgitate to feed them. the bats will do so. if they do not do so, if they return unfed, other bats, not just the one they refused, will refuse them. so they take care of their communitiesso even the so called “scariest” type of bat is really quite adorable.
