Mosquitoes are delicate creatures and relatively weak fliers, adding a floor fan or two on their deck or patio to help to keep them away. This can be especially effective in commercial accounts such as restaurants with outdoor patios. Ceiling fans, which are often kept on a low setting, are not very effective, as mosquitoes tend to stay relatively close to the ground and hence don’t feel any breeze.
