4 Tips to Reduce Mosquitoes in Your Yard

4 Tips to Reduce Mosquitoes in Your Yard

Nothing ruins outdoor fun faster than buzzing mosquitoes and the itchy bites they leave behind. Fortunately, a few simple steps can make your yard less inviting to mosquitoes – and much more enjoyable for you and your family.

1. Eliminate Standing Water

Mosquitoes lay eggs in stagnant water. Empty anything that collects rain – buckets, birdbaths, flowerpots, kids’ toys, and clogged gutters. Check your yard after each rainfall to ensure nothing is overlooked.

2. Keep Your Yard Tidy

Mosquitoes rest in tall grass, weeds, and overgrown shrubs. Mow regularly, trim bushes, and clear away leaf little to reduce their hiding spots.

3. Use Repellent

Protect yourself with mosquito repellents, ideally those containing at least 25% DEET.

4. Call the Pros

For ongoing problems, professional mosquito treatments can significantly reduce their numbers – and your stress.
