3 Tips to Get Rid of Mosquitos
Unknowingly homeowners often create the perfect environment for mosquitoes to breed and grow right in their yards! Here are three tips to help you avoid attracting and breeding more mosquitos.
1. Tip Over Containers with Rainwater
After a hard spring rain, tip over any containers collecting rainwater. Items like large pots, children’s toys like sandboxes, and other containers collect water and create the perfect spot for mosquito breeding.
2. Clear Your Yard of Junk & Debris
Junk and debris may seem harmless, but piles are the perfect home for a mosquito family. Even items like old tires attract mosquitoes to move in.
3. Always Pull Tarps Tight
Do you use a tarp cover on a grill or other large items? Always pull the tarp tight to decrease folds. These folds trap water, dirt, and other particles mosquitos love.
