Effective Mosquito Control: What to Avoid in Carmel

mosquito treated by mosquito control in CarmelWe take our knowledge of mosquito behaviors and incorporate them into our services, but you can also incorporate those principles into your daily life to cut down on mosquito interaction and lessen your likelihood of being bitten. Here a few key things to avoid to help control your interaction with pesky mosquitoes:

1. Dark Clothing

Going out on your next daily jog clad in a dark outfit can make you a target for neighborhood mosquitoes. Mosquitoes have poor eyesight, and because of this they target areas of high contrast. This attraction to contrast can make your dark t-shirt effectively act as a dinner bell to any mosquitoes in your vicinity.

2.  Dawn & Dusk

Mosquito activity peaks around the dawn & dusk hours. Taking care to plan your next outdoor activity around these hours can go a long way towards preventing you and your group from encountering a hungry swarm.

3. Standing Water & Leaf Litter

The preferred breeding ground for mosquitoes is near sources of standing water or damp leaf litter. Clear your lawn of these conditions and avoid heavily wooded areas after it rains to cut down on your chances of becoming a meal for your neighborhood’s mosquito population.
