There are certain controllable environmental factors, as well as simple, everyday things that Jackson-area residents can do to affect how often you&#8217;re going to be batting away these pesky critters. Here are a few quick mosquito control tips on how to minimize your contact with these critters on a day-to-day basis and lower your chances of being bitten:<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Standing Water Sources<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The preferred breeding ground for mosquitoes is standing water. Ponds, puddles, garbage can lids &#8211; you name it, these sources of standing water are a paradise to incoming mosquitoes, and provide a hideaway conducive to breeding and growing their population. Clearing your lawn of these sources of standing water can go a very long way towards keeping your lawn mosquito free.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Dark Clothing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It may be surprising to learn\u00a0that the color clothing you wear would have\u00a0any effect on mosquito attraction. However, wearing dark clothing makes you more distinguishable from the background, and thus easier for mosquitoes&#8217; poor eyesight to pick out from the scenery. When in an area where mosquitoes are prevalent, wearing light clothing can be an important step in being less of a target.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Being Active at Dawn or Dusk<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dawn and dusk are the times that mosquitoes are the most active, so being outdoors at those times can put you at risk of getting bitten. Try to schedule outdoor activities around these hours to reduce the chances of coming home with itchy arms and legs.<\/p>\n<p data-qtag-num=\"Q50774495\"><strong>Call Lawn Doctor of Tupelo-Corinth-Jackson-Florence-Muscle Shoals today at (662) 287-5551 for more mosquito control tips and to schedule your free consultation.
