Ridgewood NJ, stay safe and protect yourself from mosquitos and mosquito-borne illnesses this summer with some helpful tips from the Bergen County Division of Mosquito Control:

Remove any standing water from your yard. Overturn any cans, buckets, children’s toys, or any other similar containers that may hold standing water.
Clean clogged roof gutters.
Clean and chlorinate swimming pools not in use, and remove any water that may collect on pool covers.
Wear loose-fitting long-sleeved shirts and pants, particularly when mosquitos are most active at dawn and dusk. You may also consider wearing light colors.
Use a CDC-recommended, EPA-registered insect repellent with effective bug-repellant ingredients such as DEET.

  1. There’s a lot of standing water by the community garden on meadowbrook.

  2. There’s a little thing called “OFF”. It may seem old school to some folks but, this body spray has and still works for protection

    1. I hear they make a nice asbestos chewing gum for bad breath too.

      But please keep spraying yourself with toxic crap. And I’m not being facetious. I’m serious. I enjoy reading all your mutant comments and seeing more pride flags pop up around the neighborhood.
