          5. Eliminate Standing Water<\/strong><\/h3>\n
            \n

                  9. Use Air Conditioning or Fans<\/strong><\/h3>\n
                    \n
                  • Use air conditioning or fans to create an environment that is less inviting to mosquitoes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                    10. Consider Prophylactic Medication<\/strong><\/h3>\n
                      \n
