Have you been getting more mosquito bites?

You're not alone, and yes, it sucks. (haha) 

Literally.

Get it? Lol.

According to reports, disease-carrying mosquitoes that can spread the Zika virus are among us!

They're called Aedes aegypti mosquitoes and are not native to California but have spread in many California communities. 

They're small but aggressive day-biting mosquitos. Mosquitoes in California typically bite at sundown or night. 

Still, these mosquitos are "most active during daylight, for approximately two hours after sunrise and several hours before sunset," according to reports.
