Bugs (like mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas) can spread a number of diseases. Many of these diseases cannot be prevented with a vaccine or medicine. You can reduce your risk by taking steps to prevent bug bites.
#1. What can I do to prevent bug bites?
#2. Cover exposed skin by wearing long-sleeved shirts, long pants, and hats.
#3. Use an appropriate insect repellent.
#4. Use permethrin-treated clothing and gear (such as boots, pants, socks, and tents).
#5. Stay and sleep in air-conditioned or screened rooms.
#6. Use a bed net if the area where you are sleeping is exposed to the outdoors.
