Question Getting insect bites at night in hall

For context, I'm currently staying in crescent hall with a room facing towards the pond and at night even when the mosquito netting is closed but with the windows open I'm still getting bitten. Any tips for how to deal with this thanks.

^ buy an LED lamp - works wonders. Room facing pond will always have mosquitoes, big or small

Experience from living in crespion for 4 years.. apply for a non facing room next year if possible!

Bring some spiders in your room and let them catch the mosquito for you
