Bug bites can be a big annoyance when you’re on vacation!

If you’re coming to the Lake of the Ozarks this fall, be sure to bring a bottle of bug spray.

Just a few sprays and you’re good to go.

Here are some other tips to prevent bug bites when you’re at the lake:

• Wear long sleeves in the evening and morning —  those pesky bugs like to bite at dawn and dusk!
• Mosquitos like to linger over stagnant water — so be aware of your surroundings.
• Again — Use that bug spray!
• If you need to, stay indoor around dusk and dawn.

Here are a few more tips and guidelines from the Center for Disease Control.
