Yet, with so many products available on store shelves in and around the\u00a0Fortson, GA area \u2013 from mosquito spraying treatments to candles and traps \u2013\u00a0how can you tell which actually work?<\/p>\n<p>At\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Columbus-Phenix City, we cut through the clutter and hype and provide you with the facts on what to use and what to avoid.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Choose the right repellent. <\/strong>Not all repellents offer the same level of protection. Look for a product that has DEET as the active ingredient or\u00a0Picaridin. Another option to consider is a\u00a0repellent made with\u00a0lemon eucalyptus oil. This is even recommended by the CDC.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Skip the citronella\u00a0candles.<\/strong> While citronella candles are on patios and decks across Fortson and throughout Georgia, these don&#8217;t deter mosquitoes much. The carbon dioxide, light, and heat emitted by them attract mosquitoes to the candle and away from people. So, any candle will provide some relief.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Place a trap in your yard.<\/strong> Another option for controlling numbers is a mosquito trap. These work to emit\u00a0carbon dioxide or mosquito bait, which attracts mosquitoes\u00a0and then traps them using various methods. They&#8217;re designed to cut down on numbers in targeted areas.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Empty standing water.<\/strong> If your grill cover is sitting in a corner on your patio covered in rainwater, mosquitoes could be laying eggs on it. That&#8217;s why emptying areas like this is so important and a key step to controlling mosquitoes. Other common culprits to focus on include kiddie pools, containers, tarps, and bird baths.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Avoid smartphone apps and sonic devices. <\/strong>These are designed to work by scaring away mosquitoes. They send out a sound that&#8217;s similar to dragonflies, which are a mosquito predator. However, when studied, there&#8217;s no evidence they offer\u00a0protection.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Get Mosquito Spraying Services from Fortson&#8217;s\u00a0Expert Team\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like professional help restoring peace and comfort to your yard, turn to\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Columbus-Phenix City.
