Practicum: Day 1, 17 June 2014.



Today is much anticipated. I have been nervous about this teaching practice from early of this semester. After final examination subject for today, ended at 10.30am, my fellow practical trainee friends – Hani, Zyah, Maryam and me went straight to our designated school – SMK Putrajaya Presint 14 (1), Putrajaya.
                We were first greeted by PK Ko-ko. The Head Teacher was not in the office today and PK Ko-ko said that the school waited for us yesterday as they said we were supposed to report to school on Monday (16th June, 2014). We told PK Ko-Ko that we are having final examination in university and that we have a letter from University of Malaya saying that we are not able to report to school on certain days during our final examination dates. PK Ko-Ko asked us what uniform unit we took while we are in university. We said that she could assign us with any to help the school. We were told that the school now is occupied by Sports Day that will be held next two weeks.
                Afterwards, we were introduced to our mentor teacher, Madam Hayati. We were briefed about Form 1 and Form 2 OPS-ENGLISH programme, where students have just finished their Speaking and Listening 6 months training. Now that the OPS-English is done, students will learn about normal syllabus. We were told that we will be teaching Form 1, Form 2 and Form 4. There will be 2 Form 4 classes, and other classes will be divided to us. We will be given our schedules later that for this week, which is starting tomorrow, we will be shadowing teachers to classes, and perhaps will be giving hands to sports day event. I remember PK KOKO told us that on the 29th August, one week after end of our training.
                Madam Hayati briefed us about the school like operation hours, that Wednesday is the uniform unit day and toured us to the school compound and to the other teachers in teacher’s room. She also had small talks with us and gave some insights about the teaching world – sharing her experiences being a teacher and teacher’s trainee.
                Basically, though that I’m nervous to do the practical here, I am excited too because this can be said as a new experience for me. My journals here in this blog – I don’t care much about my language structure and all (well, perhaps will do proof-readings later), I’m focusing keying-in my daily experiences in school being the teacher’s trainee –  besides, I need to do other things that requires quite a lot of time too.
Project to do:    (1) Beautify English language corner at MBMMBI section.

                                (2) We have not yet meet with the Principle, perhaps we will be assign a project to do by the Principle – like previous teacher’s trainees, they were assigned to do ‘Kajian Tindakan’.

Teaching Practice (Practicum) for B.Ed. TESL

Salam a'laik my blog readers. How do you do? It's been a long time since I'm blogging in this blog :) Now I'm in Year Three (out of four years programme) of Bachelors of Education, Teaching English of Second Language (TESL). During our semester break (or actually before that - during final exam week exactly), teaching practice to school will be done.

I got SMK Putrajaya Presint 14 (1) as my practicum school together with my other three classmates. My final examinations will be clashing with the practicum for the first two weeks. Insya-Allah I will be updating my life experiences during the practicum here. I'm nervous because I think that I'm not quite ready - in term of knowledge, I need to learn more actually. My lecturer supervisor is Dr. Sofi. He will be evaluating us for three times, two times for TESL, one time for Literature lesson and he will be coming for social visit in Week 1 and 2 to our school too. Hope that all will be well. The teaching practice will start from 16 June - 22 August 2014. My final examination dates are on the 16th, 17th, 21st & 24th June 2014. Pray for the best, insya-Allah..

Motivational Quotes

Someone has written these beautiful LINES. Read and try to understand the deeper meaning of them.

1. Prayer is not a "spare wheel" that you pull out when in trouble, but it is a "steering wheel" that directs the right path throughout life.
2. Why is a car's windshield so large & the rear view mirror so small? Because our PAST is not as important as our FUTURE. So, look ahead and move on.
3. Friendship is like a BOOK. It takes a few seconds to burn, but it takes years to write.
4. All things in life are temporary. If they are going well, enjoy them, they will not last forever. If they are going wrong, don't worry, they can't last long either.
5. Old friends are gold! New friends are diamond! If you get a diamond, don't forget the gold! To hold a diamond, you always need a base of gold!
6. Often when we lose hope and think this is the end, God smiles from above and says, "Relax, sweetheart; it's just a bend, not the end!"
7. When God solves your problems, you have faith in HIS abilities; when God doesn't solve your problems, He has faith in YOUR abilities.
8. A blind person asked God: "Can there be anything worse than losing eye sight?" He replied: "Yes, losing your vision!!!"
9. When you pray for others, God listens to you and blesses them, and sometimes, when you are safe and happy, remember that someone has prayed for you.
10. Worrying does not take away tomorrow's troubles; it takes away today's PEACE.
If you enjoyed this, please copy it and pass it to others. It may brighten someone else's day, too.


MAY ALLAH SWT BLESS YOU !

Kelebihan Surah Taha ayat 1-5 Doa hilang malas solat, degil dan melawan kata ibubapa

Terima kasih kepada anda yang memilih untuk klik link blog ~Dominasi Pertamaku // My First Domination~ untuk membaca artikel yang insyA-Allah memberi manfaat kepada anda.

Ayat 1 - 5 ini adalah salah satu doa untuk melembutkan hati suami/isteri/anak yang degil, yang tak mahu solat. Melalui pembacaan saya pada buku-buku dan blog yang lain, setelah membaca doa ini 3x hendaklah dihembuskan ke muka yang tersayang anda semasa mereka sedang tidur nyenyak, apabila mereka sedang menarik nafas masuk. Lakukan sekurang-kurangnya tujuh kali seminggu. 


Maksudnya:
  1. Taa. Haa.
  2. Kami tidak menurunkan A-Quran kepadamu (wahai Muhammad) supaya engkau menanggung kesusahan.
  3. Hanya untuk menjadi peringatan bagi orang-orang yang takut yang melanggar perintah Allah.
  4. Al-Quran diturunkan dari tuhan yang menciptakan bumi dan langit yang tinggi.
  5. Ia-itu Allah Ar-Rahmaan,yang bersemayam diatas 'Arasy.

Kisah Umar al-Khattab

doa lembutkan hati

السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ

Surah Taha adalah surah yang ke 20, juzuk 16. Surah yang baik untuk melembut hati yang keras terutama sekali dibacakan kepada ahli keluarga yang keras hati, malas dan degil untuk beribadat kepada Allah SWT. Boleh diamalkan sebagai ayat pendinding diri. Ayat 1 hingga 5 yang dibaca oleh Saidina Umar Al-Khattab r.a yang pada masa dan ketika itu belum lagi memeluk Agama Islam, tersentuh hatinya dan beliau terus memeluk agama Islam pada hari itu juga dihadapan Nabi Muhammad SAW.

Beliau seorang yang berani semasa kafir dan bertambah berani sesudah beriman. Sifat berani dan garang sehingga iblis atau syaitan pun tidak berani melintas dihadapan beliau lari lintang pukang jika bersua dengan Saidina Umar, inikan pula kita yang lemah semangat.

Semasa Nabi Muhammad s.a.w. mula menyebarkan Islam secara terang-terangan, Saidina Umar mempertahankan ajaran tradisi masyarakat Quraisy. Saidina Umar ialah antara orang yang paling kuat menentang Islam pada masa itu.

Menurut ahli sejarah Islam, semasa Saidina Umar dalam perjalanan untuk membunuh Rasulullah s.a.w., beliau bertembung dengan seseorang yang mengatakan bahawa beliau haruslah membunuh adik perempuannya dahulu memandangkan adiknya telah memeluk Islam.

Saidina Umar pergi ke rumah adiknya dan mendapati adiknya sedang membaca Al-Quran. Dalam keadaan yang marah dan kecewa beliau memukul adiknya. Apabila melihat adiknya berdarah, beliau meminta maaf dan sebagai balasan beliau akan membaca secebis ayat Al Quran kepada adiknya. Beliau berasa terharu apabila membaca dan mendengar ayat-ayat Al Quran yang begitu indah sehinggakan beliau memeluk Islam pada hari itu juga. Itulah kelebihan Surah Taha yang dibaca oleh beliau.

Selepas peristiwa terbabit, beliau berjanji akan melindungi Islam sehingga ke titisan darah terakhir. Dia menjadi khalifah kedua Islam pada 23 Ogos (633-644) bersamaan 22 Jamadilakhir tahun 13 Hijrah dan merupakan salah satu khalifah di dalam Khulafa al-Rasyidun.

Sebuah hadith dari Ibnu Abbas yang diriwayatkan oleh Ibnu Majah bahawa Rasulullah SAW berkata:
"Apabila Umar memeluk Islam, Jibril pun datang dan berkata: "Ya Muhammad, sesungguhnya seluruh makhluk langit bergembira dengan islamnya Umar"
Setelah memeluk Islam, Rasulullah SAW telah mengelarnya sebagai Al-Faruq kerana dapat membezakan di antara perkara yang benar dan bathil. Ketika ditanya oleh para sahabat bagaimana dia mendapat gelaran tersebut, Saidina Umar menjawab : "Pada suatu hari, Aku bertanya kepada Rasulullah SAW : "Ya Rasulullah SAW, adakah kita dalam kebenaran ?"

Jawab Rasulullah SAW: "Benar"

Aku berkata lagi: "Kenapakah kita beribadah secara sembunyi ?"

Kemudian kami masuk ke Masjidil Haram membuat dua syaf, satu saya dan satu lagi Saidina Hamzah (berjemaah). Maka semua orang KAFIR Quraisy melihat ke arah kami berdua dengan perasaan yang sangat marah yang tidak pernah mereka terjadi sebelum ini, lalu Rasulullah SAW mengelarkan aku Al-Faruq! 

Dengan islamnya Umar, maka umat Islam yang sebelum itu sentiasa ketakutan menjadi kuat. Mereka telah berani solat secara terang-terangan di BaitulLah khususnya setelah peristiwa di atas. Di samping itu juga, orang Quraisy juga tidak berani menganggu orang Islam yang sedang beribadah kerana takut kepada Umar.

Doa Untuk Anak Yang Degil.



Setelah membuat kajian, saya dapati banyak carian berkaitan doa untuk anak. Untuk post kali ini, saya siarkan doa untuk diamalkan oleh ibubapa bagi mengatasi masalah anak yang degil.

Sebelum memulakan rawatan untuk anak ini, saya nasihatkan ibubapa supaya mengenalpasti dulu punca masalah tersebut. Cari sebab kenapa anak-anak kita menjadi degil, nakal atau tidak mahu mendengar nasihat.

Cuba lihat pada nama anak itu. Cari maksud nama tersebut. Adakah ia bersesuaian dengan karektor anak.

Kemudian fikirkan sejenak cara kita mendidik dan melayan anak. Adakah sangat ketat, sangat garang, sangat manja atau terbiar sahaja. Kesemua ini memberi kesan terhadap perangai anak.

Cubalah selami jiwa dan kemahuan anak-anak. Barangkali ada pertentangan antara cara kita dan kehendak anak-anak. Mungkin juga disebabkan oleh "jurang generasi".

Fikirkan juga punca rezeki yang kita perolehi. Dari sumber mana dan adakah ia halal, syubhah atau haram. Kesemua ini ada kesan kepada jiwa anak-anak.

Seterusnya , bagaimana pula dengan didikan agama mereka ? Berapa kali kita berjemaah bersama keluarga. berapa kali kita membaca Quran bersama-sama.

Sebagai ibubapa, kita perlu ambil tahu siapakah teman-teman anak kita dan apakah aktiviti mereka dan kemana mereka selalu pergi.

Sekiranya ada kekurangan berkaitan cara kita, silalah perbaiki diri. Berubahlah supaya kita menjadi ilham anak-anak. Rapatkan hubungan dengan ank-anak. Kemudian amalkanlah doa untuk anak yang degil ini.

Untuk memulakan rawatan untuk anak yang degil, mulakan dengan bacaan Surah Al Fatihah, Ayatul Qursi Selawat Syifa sebanyak tujuh kali.kemudian usaplah ubun-ubun anak itu dengan penuh kasih sayang. Pasang niat di dalam hati. Bacalah doa rawatan anak yang degil sebanyak tujuh kali. Tiuplah di ubun-ubun anak itu setiap kali selesai membaca doa dibawah.



Lakukan rawatan ini ketika anak sedang tidur. Ini kerana ketika tidur, jiwa anak anak ini tenang. Ulangilah rawatan ini beberapa hari sehingga ada perubahan pada sikap anak-anak. Jika keadaan agak kritikal, lakukan solat sunat hajat.

Semoga post ini memberi manfaat kepada anda dan dapat membantu menyelesaikan masalah anda. InsyaAllah.

Wassalam.

The Blacksmith and the Perfume seller

On the authority of Abu Musa al-Ash'ari (radiAllahu anhu), the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said:

"The likeness of a righteous friend and an evil friend, is the likeness of a (musk) perfume seller and a blacksmith. As for the perfume seller, he may either bestow something on you, or you may purchase something from him, or you may benefit from his sweet smell. And as for the blacksmith, he may either burn your clothes, or you may be exposed to his awful smell."

[Bukhari and Muslim]


This is one of the many narrations from the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam), which is striking in its simile, wonderful in its rhetoric, and ingenious in its explanation. The Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) would always explain concepts in the simplest way, and yet their effect on the human heart would be fantastic. This is especially important considering human beings are of all different cultures, intellects and understandings, and the words of the Messenger (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) transcend all these barriers.

"The likeness of a righteous friend and an evil friend, is the likeness of a (musk) perfume seller and a blacksmith.."

This first sentence is the object of the hadith-friendship. In the Arabic, the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) starts with the restrictive word innama, which is very difficult to incorporate into the English translation while at the same time maintaining its coherence. The inclusion of this first word means the comparison that the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) is making is a very exact one, even though it may not be literal.

There is no doubt friendship is an integral part of life for all human beings. A very interesting point is that the Arabic word for human is insan. Scholars have pointed out there may be several words where insan is derived from. One of these is isti'nas, which means pleasure or joy from another's company. This implies that human beings are naturally social, communal creatures, who have a need for each other. Here the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) recognises this fact and gives a stern warning, as well as some warm advice.

In fact, the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) has frequently stressed on the importance of one’s friends or immediate social surrounds. For example, he (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said:

"A man is on the religion of his close friend, so each of you should look to whom you take as close friends."

This powerful advice stems from Revelation, as Allah (Ta'ala) created human beings to be social. It is also backed by thousands of years of human experience, and is also corroborated by modern science. Countless completed studies suggest that peer pressure is vital in the way humans behave, particularly in our youth, driving them towards smoking, drugs, alcohol and vulgar sexual behaviour.

Even more seriously, an evil social group eventually drives one to negligence in obligatory actions and disbelief. An example of this, discussed later, is even mentioned in the Qur'an. So how does this work? The Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) explains:

"As for the perfume seller, he may either bestow something on you, or you may purchase something from him, or you may benefit from his sweet smell.."

The company of the righteous friend is where the heart is at rest, and where the spirit is in harmony. It is the person who makes one truly happy. He/she provides encouragement during times of hardship and is also there to provide motivation in times of ease. But most importantly, the righteous friend improves one’s Islamic character and Iman.

According to the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) the benefit comes in three forms. Firstly, he may provide you with an easy avenue for good deeds, such as reminding you of Allah (subhanahu wa Ta'ala) or perhaps telling you a hadith you have never heard. In essence, he has provided you with a gift.

Secondly, he may provide you an avenue to good deeds that perhaps requires some effort on your part, such as encouraging you to give charity.

Thirdly, you may simply benefit from his presence, which provides an inner sense of peace, and a softening of the heart.

Sahih International
"Indeed, [O Muhammad], you do not guide whom you like, but Allah guides whom He wills. And He is most knowing of the [rightly] guided." (Al-Qasas 28:56).

Meaning, Allah holds the heart of people in giving Hidaaya, we as normal human just like a 'mediator' to other people's hidaaya. By being a good friend, our good advice would give possibilties of giving good virtue lesson(s) to our friend(s) and ourselves. :)

Sekarang ni di Putrajaya memang banyak nyamuk. Geram nk tidur malam-malam susah. Dah macam gambar Jong Kookie (Running Man) kat bawah ni dah haha.

 Kementerian Kesihatan pun mengarahkan Klinik Kesihatan teruskan operasi sehingga jam 11 malam (bukan Putrajaya je, di sekitar kawasan KL dan Selangor juga). Nyamuk cukup mengganggu dan sangat berbahaya sebagai penyebar pelbagai penyakit (terutamanya demam denggi). Racun pembunuh serangga di pasaran kurang efisien dan bahkan membawa kesan sampingan yang serius.


Berikut ini cara yang MUDAH dan MURAH yang boleh anda mencubanya. (Cara buat di bawah video). Di bawah juga ada informasi tentang nyamuk. :)



Bahan yang diperlukan adalah :
- 200 ml air
- 50 gram gula merah
- 1 gram ragi/ yis (yeast)
- Botol plastik 1.5 liter

Langkah-langkah:







1. Potong botol plastik di tengah. Simpan bahagian atas/ mulut botol.




2. Campurkan gula merah dengan air panas. Biarkan hingga sejuk dan kemudian tuangkan di bahagian bawah botol yang telah dipotong itu.




3. Campurkan ragi/yis. Tak perlu digaul. Ini akan menghasilkan karbon dioksida.






4. Pasang/ masukkan potongan bahagian botol atas dengan posisi terbalik seperti corong.




5. Balutkan botol dengan sesuatu yang hitam, kecuali dibahagian atas dan letakkannya di beberapa sudut di rumah anda.


Dalam masa dua minggu, insya-Allah anda akan dapat melihat banyaknya jumlah nyamuk yang sudah mati di dalam botol.

Article below is from Howstuffworks:
Freudenrich, Ph.D., Craig.  "How Mosquitoes Work"  05 July 2001.  HowStuffWorks.com.  08 February 2014.

Mosquito

Let's say it's summer time. You're out in your backyard enjoying thesun and grilling your dinner. Ouch! You look down at your arm and see a painful, swelling mosquito bite. Moments later, you feel another one bite you. What are these pesky insects? Why do they bite? Do they carry diseases? What can you do to protect yourself
In this article, we'll take a close-up look at mosquitoes -- how they breed, how they bite, what diseases they carry and what you can do to control them.

Up Close

Mosquitoes are insects that have been around for more than 30 million years. And it seems that, during those millions of years, mosquitoes have been honing their skills so that they are now experts at finding people to bite. Mosquitoes have a battery of sensors designed to track their prey, including:
  • Chemical sensors - mosquitoes can sense carbon dioxide and lactic acid up to 100 feet (36 meters) away. Mammals and birds gives off these gases as part of their normal breathing. Certain chemicals in sweat also seem to attract mosquitoes (people who don't sweat much don't get nearly as many mosquito bites).
  • Visual sensors - if you are wearing clothing that contrasts with the background, and especially if you move while wearing that clothing, mosquitoes can see you and zero in on you. It's a good bet that anything moving is "alive", and therefore full of blood, so this is a good strategy.
  • Heat sensors - Mosquitoes can detect heat, so they can find warm-blooded mammals and birds very easily once they get close enough.
Something with this many sensors sounds more like a military aircraft than an insect. That's why mosquitoes are so good at finding and biting you. As we'll see later, one of the only ways to stop mosquitoes from finding you is to confuse their chemical receptors with something like DEET.
Like all insects, adult mosquitoes have three basic body parts:
  • Head - This is where all the sensors are, along with the biting apparatus. The head has two compound eyes, antennae to sense chemicals and the mouth parts called the palpus and the proboscis (only females h­ave the proboscis, for biting).
  • Thorax - This segment is where the two wings and six legs attach. It contains the flight muscles, compound heart, some nerve cell ganglia and ­trachioles.
  • Abdomen - This segment contains the digestive and excretory organs.
So you have a sensor package, a motor package and a fuel processing package -- a perfect design!

The parts of a mosquito



Types of Mosquitoes

There are more than 2,700 species of mosquitoes in the world, and there are 13 mosquito genera (plural for "genus") that live in the United States. Of these genera, most mosquitoes belong to three:
  • Aedes - These are sometimes called "floodwater" mosquitoes because flooding is important for their eggs to hatch. Aedesmosquitoes have abdomens with pointed tips. They include such species as the yellow-fever mosquito (Aedes aegypti) and the Asian tiger mosquito (Aedes albopictus). They are strong fliers, capable of travelling great distances (up to 75 miles/121 km) from their breeding sites. They persistently bite mammals (especially humans), mainly at dawn and in the early evening. Their bites are painful.
  • Anopheles - These tend to breed in bodies of permanent fresh water. Anopheles mosquitoes also have abdomens with pointed tips. They include several species, such as the common malaria mosquito (Anopheles quadrimaculatus), that can spread malaria to humans.
  • Culex - These tend to breed in quiet, standing water. Culex mosquitoes have abdomens with blunt tips. They include several species such as the northern house mosquito (Culex pipiens). They are weak fliers and tend to live for only a few weeks during the summer months. They persistently bite (preferring birds over humans) and attack at dawn or after dusk. Their bite is painful.
Some mosquitoes, such as the cattail mosquito (Coquilettidia perturbans), are becoming more prevalent pests as humans invade their habitats.
Let's examine how mosquitoes live and breed.

Life Cycle and Breeding

Like all insects, mosquitoes hatch from eggs and go through several stages in their life cycle before becoming adults. The females lay their eggs in water, and the larva and pupa stages live entirely in water. When the pupa change into adults, they leave the water and become free-flying land insects. The life cycle of a mosquito can vary from one to several weeks depending upon the species (the adult, mated females of some species can survive the winter in cool, damp places until spring, when they will lay their eggs and die.)



We’ll look at the stages of mosquito development in the next section.



Aedes aegypti larvae extend into the water and have short siphons.

Mosquito Development

Egg

All mosquitoes lay eggs in water, which can include large bodies of water, standing water (like swimming pools) or areas of collected standing water (like tree holes or gutters). Females lay their eggs on the surface of the water, except for Aedes mosquitoes, which lay their eggs above water in protected areas that eventually flood. The eggs can be laid singly or as a group that forms a floating raft of mosquito eggs (seeMosquito Life Cycle for a picture of an egg raft). Most eggs can survive the winter and hatch in the spring.

Larva

The mosquito eggs hatch into larvae or "wigglers," which live at the surface of the water and breathe through an air tube or siphon. The larvae filter organic material through their mouth parts and grow to about 0.5 to 0.75 inches (1 to 2 cm) long; as they grow, they shed their skin (molt) several times. Mosquito larvae can swim and dive down from the surface when disturbed (see Mosquito Life Cycle for a Quicktime movie of free-swimming Asian tiger mosquito larvae). The larvae live anywhere from days to several weeks depending on the water temperature and mosquito species.

Pupa

After the fourth molt, mosquito larvae change into pupae, ­or "tumblers," which live in the water anywhere from one to four days depending on the water temperature and species. The pupae float at the surface and breathe through two small tubes (trumpets). Although they do not eat, pupae are quite active (see Mosquito Life Cycle for a Quicktime movie of free-swimming Asian tiger mosquito pupae). At the end of the pupal stage, the pupae encase themselves and transform into adult mosquitoes.

Adult

Inside the pupal case, the pupa transforms into an adult. The adult uses air pressure to break the pupal case open, crawls to a protected area and rests while its external skeleton hardens, spreading its wings out to dry. Once this is complete, it can fly away and live on the land.
One of the first things that adult mosquitoes do is seek a mate, mate and then feed. Male mosquitoes have short mouth parts and feed on plant nectar. In contrast, female mosquitoes have a long proboscis that they use to bite animals and humans and feed on their blood (the blood provides proteins that the females need to lay eggs). After they feed, females lay their eggs (they need a blood meal each time they lay eggs). Females continue this cycle and live anywhere from many days to weeks (longer over the winter); males usually live only a few days after mating. The life cycles of mosquitoes vary with the species and environmental conditions.

Mosquito Bites, Diseases and Protection

As mentioned before, only female mosquitoes bite. They are attracted by several things, including heat (infrared light), light,perspiration, body odor, lactic acid and carbon dioxide. The female lands on your skin and sticks her proboscis into you (the proboscis is very sharp and thin, so you may not feel it going in). Her saliva contains proteins (anticoagulants) that prevent your blood from clotting. She sucks your blood into her abdomen (about 5 microliters per serving for an Aedes aegypti mosquito).
If she is disturbed, she will fly away. Otherwise, she will remain until she has a full abdomen. If you were to cut the sensory nerve to her abdomen, she would keep sucking until she burst.
After she has bitten you, some saliva remains in the wound. The proteins from the saliva evoke an immune response from your body. The area swells (the bump around the bite area is called a wheal), and you itch, a response provoked by the saliva. Eventually, the swelling goes away, but the itch remains until your immune cells break down the saliva proteins.
To treat mosquito bites, you should wash them with mild soap and water. Try to avoid scratching the bite area, even though it itches. Some anti-itch medicines such as Calamine lotion or ­over-the-counter cortisone creams may relieve the itching. Typically, you do not need to seek medical attention (unless you feel dizzy or nauseated, which may indicate a severe allergic reaction to the bite).

Diseases

Mosquitoes can carry many types of diseases that are caused by bacteria, parasites or viruses. These diseases include:
  • Malaria - Malaria is caused by a parasite that is transmitted by an Anopheles mosquito. The parasite grows in your bloodstream and can produce symptoms that develop anywhere from six to eight days to several months after infection.The symptoms include fever, chills, headachesmuscle aches and general malaise (similar to flu symptoms). Malaria is a severe disease that can be fatal, but can be treated with antimalarial drugs. Malaria is prevalent in tropical or sub-tropical climates.
  • Yellow Fever - Yellow fever no longer occurs in the United States or Europe, but it is prevalent in Africa and parts of South America. It is transmitted by the Aedes aegypti mosquito. Yellow fever produces symptoms similar to malaria, but also includes nausea, vomiting and jaundice. Like malaria, yellow fever can be fatal. There is no treatment for the disease itself, only the symptoms. Yellow fever can be controlled by vaccination and mosquito control.
  • Encephalitis - Encephalitis is caused by viruses that are transmitted by mosquitoes ­such as the Aedesmosquitoes or Culiseta mosquitoes. The symptoms of encephalitis include high fever, stiff neck, headache, confusion and laziness/sleepiness. There are several types of encephalitis that can be transmitted by mosquitoes, including St. LouisWestern equineEastern equineLa Crosse and West NileWest Nileencephalitis is on the rise in the eastern United States, which has raised concerns about mosquito control .
  • Dengue Fever - Dengue fever is transmitted by the Asian tiger mosquito, which is native to East Asia and was found in the United States in 1985. It is also transmitted by Aedes aegypti in the tropics. Dengue fever is caused by a virus that produces a range of illnesses, from viral flu to hemorrhagic fever. It is especially dangerous for children (see Dengue Fever & Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever for more information).
We'll look at ways to reduce mosquito populations in the next section.



Mosquito Repellents

The best way to reduce mosquito-borne diseases is through mosquito control and personal protection. You can do a few things to reduce the number of mosquito bites that you get while enjoying the outdoors. First, wear clothing that covers most of your body, if temperatures permit. Second, use a mosquito repellent that containsNN-diethyl-meta-toluamide (DEET) at a concentration of 7.5 percent to 100 percent. Lower concentrations are sufficient for most outdoor protection, and a 15-percent concentration is recommended for children. Avon's original Skin-So-Soft is a weak, short-lasting (less than 20 minutes) mosquito repellent, although there are newer Skin-So-Soft formulations that include EPA-recognized insect repellents.Permethrin, an effective pesticide, is for use on clothing only (Never apply it to your skin, it is aneurotoxin!). To learn more about mosquito repellents, see the EPA's How to Use Insect Repellents Safely.
Beyond mosquito repellents and clothing, you can try to control the mosquito population. Mosquitoes need water to breed and will use any source of standing water.



So, to reduce the mosquito population, eliminate sources of standing water in your yard. Empty watering cans, remove old tires and cover rain barrels.


If you have a lily pond in your garden, stock it with some fish that will eat the mosquito larvae. Some petroleum oils can be added to water to form a thin surface layer that suffocates the mosquito eggs; however, many of these oils will also suffocate any fish living in the water.
To prevent mosquitoes from entering your home, make sure that all of your window screens are intact.
Finally, there are many commercial pesticides available to kill mosquito larvae and mosquito adults. Many communities conduct large-scale spraying of pesticides containing mallothione to control mosquito populations during the spring and summer, especially in attempts to reduce the spread of West Nile encephalitis. Another option is a device like a Mosquito Magnet, which lures and traps mosquitoes.

MOSQUITOES ARE IMPORTANT

The mosquito larvae and pupae are important food sources for fish in aquatic ecosystems.

Mosquito Summary

Although small in size, mosquitoes have been around for over 30 million years. They have honed their hunting skills over that time and today use chemical, visual and heat sensors to locate their prey. They use their chemical sensors to detect carbon dioxide and lactic acid from up to 100 feet away. Certain chemicals in sweat can also trigger their sensors. Their visual sensors aren't very keen, but they can see you moving if you are wearing clothing that contrasts the background. They use their heat sensors to detect warm-blooded mammals and birds in their vicinity, so they can always locate humans when they are near enough to sense body heat.
There are approximately 2,700 species of mosquitoes with the majority belonging to 3 major genera: aedes(eggs are laid in floodwater areas), anopheles (eggs are laid in permanent fresh water) and culex (eggs are laid in quiet, standing water). In terms of development, all mosquitoes start as eggs and hatch into larva or "wigglers". As larva, mosquitoes molt several times until they become pupa or "tumblers". As pupa, mosquitoes mature and become adults and begin to mate and feed. After mating, most males die within a few days, whereas the females can live for many weeks, depending on the species of mosquito and the environmental conditions present.
