This question depends on where you live, if you're staying in a dirty environment, count them as your friend.
This is your health we're talking about, get yourself a mosquito net, make sure you close your windows/doors before 6pm.


Good life na sense.
Be safe.

Mosquito net...... Open your windows for ventilation.

But mosquito nets are not 100% safe. Some parasites still sneak their way in.

I rather get bitten by a snake than mosquitoes.
That's how much I hate them.
Just order for these foldable mosquitoe nets from Jumia. Should not be more than 9k plus delivery.

Won't just stop you from mosquito bites, it will also beautify your home.

Looks nice but unfortunately it does not last. I can very much attest to this after using a couple of it several years ago.

@op Get the traditional mosquito nets. Find a good carpenter to install 4 sturdy long rods (not wood for durability) at every corner of your bed. Those rods should have a small 'hook' for attaching the mosquito nets..And that's it.

Be careful of using these insecticides overzealously particularly if you have kids. Someone mentioned using the odorless types. That's dangerous. It can cause organophosphate poisoning and the treatment is not your usual milk etc.

Also look into installing window nets to promote adequate ventilation in your homes. Shutting all windows will only make you uncomfortable

You need to block any opening from your ceiling, there are mosquitoes entering your room from there.

I don’t know what to do, there’s no standing water anywhere near my windows, it’s becoming unbearable and i might not sleep this night because of them. Please help me with solutions



Get a broom. Not APC kind of broom. That one is FAKE


SNIPER is your friend. Let it cool off before you get into the room though

Make sure there's no Bush around your house too
Sometimes people dump refuse indiscriminately around the house you need clear it for enough wind to freely blows.
Then fumigate

Again, SNIPER should be used with lots of caution. Many parents have lost their kids to sniper. Use insecticide (which has been significantly diluted) and get a mosquito net

Well, I won't totally write off your experience but I used mine at my former place for more than 2 years. No single tear all through, it all depends on the handling of it. Most people assume because it's not as thick as the traditional nets that it won't last but from my own experience, they aren't correct.

Always close your toilet bowls.

Flush drains with (mixture of Boiling water, Washing Soap, Salt and Baking Soda)

Check door seals, net seals and AC inlet, Kitchen extractor hole and other holes on the walls. Check they are properly sealed.

Internal ventilation. Ensure adequate ventilation in the room.

No soaking of clothes!

Make sure you do nets for your Windows and doors

Get Sniper insecticide (sold for 1200) and spray it.

Make sure you keep the environment clean, clear any nearby Bush etc

Get a mosquito net

Fumigate your environment

Take a very good and long shower with a good and original shower gel before bed
Open your windows fully and sleep like a new born baby,
But make sure that the fresh air from your windows are enough to prevent sweat from your body
Sweat attracts mosquitoes
