How to Prevent Mosquitoes

Mosquitoes are attracted to areas with standing water. By reducing the amount of standing water in your yard, you can discourage mosquitoes from breeding and laying eggs. You can also take steps to reduce the number of mosquitoes in your yard by making it less attractive to them.

Some things you can do to prevent mosquitoes include:

• Use a fan when you’re outside to keep mosquitoes away
• Wear long sleeves and pants to protect your skin from mosquito bites
• Apply an EPA-approved mosquito repellent to your skin and clothing
• Keep your yard well-maintained and free of debris
• Trim your trees and shrubs to allow sunlight to reach the ground
• Remove any standing water from your yard, such as bird baths and empty flower pots
• Keep your gutters clean and free of debris

How to Tell If You Have a Mosquito Infestation

Most people can tell if they have a mosquito infestation by the number of mosquitoes they see in their yard. If you notice a large number of mosquitoes in your yard, you could have an infestation. You may also notice mosquito larvae in standing water around your yard. These larvae look like small, black worms and can be found in bird baths, buckets, and other containers that collect water.

Why You Should Hire a Professional Mosquito Exterminator

While there are many products available that claim to get rid of mosquitoes, most of them are not very effective. In fact, many of these products can actually make your mosquito problem worse. If you want to get rid of mosquitoes and keep them away, you should hire a professional mosquito exterminator.

A professional mosquito exterminator will not only eliminate your current mosquito problem but will also create a barrier around your yard to keep mosquitoes away. This barrier is made up of a combination of products that are designed to repel mosquitoes and kill any mosquitoes that come into contact with them. By applying these products to your yard on a regular basis, you can keep mosquitoes away for good.
