Water and Mosquitoes

That isn't correct according to the CDC. See:
http://cdc.gov/chikungunya/resources/…
Look for the figure labeled "Estimated range of Aedes aegypti in the United States 2016." This mosquito is also the vector for dengue, chikungunya, and yellow fever viruses.

Only if you are in the tropics - the vector for Zika is a tropics-only mosquito. (Of course there are lots of other nasties spread by mozzies so making life hard for them is a good idea wherever you are)
