malaria is caused by a type of microbe called protazoa. In malaria, protists (one of the groups of microbes) are carried by mosquitoes in tropical areas of the world (the protazoa responsible are of the genus Plasmodium: P. vivax, P. ovale, and P. falciparum).
Although mostly still in foreign tropical locations, some malaria has been found in the far southern parts of the US on rare occasions. To protect from this and other mosquito-borne diseases, use a repellent containing DEET whenever exposed to mosquitoes. Also be sure to eliminate outdoors sources of standing water in your immediate vicinity, even very small amounts can allow mosquitoes to propagate.
