You can control nuisance mosquitoes and keep your backyard a safe space for outdoor fun by:
Mosquitoes are attracted to water and humid climates. In fact, the pests spend 75% of their life cycle in water, so dumping stagnant water is a crucial step in controlling them. Some common areas to check for standing water include gutters, birdbaths, flowerpots, and buckets.
Besides standing water, mosquitoes like to rest in the shade. Tall grass or bushes can provide shady areas for mosquitoes to hover around. Mowing overgrown vegetation and exposing your lawn to direct sunlight can help curb your mosquito problem.
Citronella, marigold, and lavender serve as natural mosquito repellents. The plants contain chemicals and strong fragrances that irritate mosquitoes, so planting them in your garden can help keep the pests away.
Fans can simultaneously keep you cool and blow mosquitoes away by making it difficult for the pests to land nearby.
Insecticides are commonly used to kill mosquitoes and their eggs and larvae. While spray repellents can help rid your property of mosquitoes, they often contain strong chemicals that can be unsafe for you and the environment. Therefore, it is recommended to have professionals spray your property for mosquitoes using non-toxic and eco-friendly methods to ensure the mosquitoes are the only living thing that gets eliminated.
