How to Get Rid of Mosquitoes
Here's how you can tackle those pesky mosquitoes step by step:
- Get rid of standing water: Mosquitoes love breeding in still water, so empty out any containers, pots, or places where water gathers regularly. Think flower pots, bird baths, clogged gutters, and old tires.
- Use bug sprays: When you're outside, especially during dawn and dusk when mosquitoes are most active, put on insect repellent containing DEET, picaridin, or oil of lemon eucalyptus.
- Screen your windows and doors: Keep mosquitoes out of your home by making sure all your windows and doors have screens.
- Try mosquito traps: There are different kinds available that lure mosquitoes with light, heat, CO2, or other tricks, then trap them.
- Plant repellent plants: Grow citronella, lavender, basil, and marigold around your home to naturally repel mosquitoes with their scents.
- Keep your yard tidy: Mosquitoes like hiding in overgrown grass and bushes, so keep your yard trimmed.
- Use mosquito dunks: These little donut-shaped things contain bacteria that kill mosquito larvae in standing water.
- Call in the pros: If your mosquito problem is serious, consider hiring pest control experts to assess your property and deal with the issue.
Remember, it's usually best to use a mix of these methods to keep mosquitoes in check and reduce their numbers around your home.
