Recent rain showers have been great for landscapes and wildflowers. But they’ve also ushered in mosquitos by the millions.
Stop swatting and start enjoying your great outdoors. Help prevent these masters of misery from hanging around.
- Eliminate ALL standing water. Even a tablespoon of water can breed mosquitos.
- Clean bird baths or wildlife water features often.
- Add fish to your ponds. They feast on mosquito larvae.
And the No. 1 way to keep mosquitos at bay? Reduce irrigation! Excess water can collect on vegetation and clay soils and become a mosquito breeding hotspot.
