Why Mosquito Control Matters
Mosquitoes are more than just a nuisance; they can spread harmful disease like West Nile virus, encephalitis, and heartworm. Cases of West Nile virus have been reported in nearly all 50 states, including Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia. With changing weather patterns, mosquito populations could be on the rise, too. Using a professional mosquito control service and taking your own steps to reduce populations can help protect your loved ones and pets.
How to Control Mosquitoes in Your Yard
You can increase the effectiveness of professional mosquito control by taking the following steps in your yard to manage mosquito populations:
- Get rid of standing water. Even a few tablespoons of water is enough to attract the buggers. Common spots we forget about are tire swings, clogged gutters, and tubs or buckets tucked behind sheds, garages, or under decks. If you must have bird baths or pet bowls outside, change their water frequently
- Run fans. If you have a ceiling fan on your front porch or can bring a standing fan outside on your deck, they help move around the carbon dioxide we exhale, which can repel mosquitoes.
- Diversify your garden! Some plants that may help deter mosquitoes include catnip, rose-scented geranium, basil, lemon balm, rosemary, and peppermint. Add those to your herb garden or patio containers.
- Burn burn burn. Light a few citronella candles and if you’re grilling, throw a few sprigs of fresh rosemary onto the hot grill to naturally repel mosquitoes.
