They don't, that's rather the point of some mosquito prevention programs.
The reason there are still mosquitos despite the programs is that there is never no water. We can try to reduce or treat large bodies standing water that mosquitos can get to, but it's not possible to completely get rid of it.

While it does not get rid of mosqitos per se, the mosquitos won't bite you (and really that is all I am concerned about). Get your clothes smokey (like from a camp fire) and wear them that way. Mosquitos don't like smoke and will not come near you if you smell like it.
