Fighting these pests, however, can be difficult. There are several products out there that claim to keep mosquitoes at bay, but it can be difficult to determine what&#8217;s effective and what isn&#8217;t. Below, we&#8217;ll go through some common mosquito deterrents and give you the lowdown on what works and what should be avoided. For protection you can trust, turn to the professional mosquito spraying we offer to our neighbors in the Norcross, GA area.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Truth About Mosquito Deterrents<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Let&#8217;s take a look at some effective, and some not-so-effective mosquito deterrents:<\/p>\n<p><strong>What Works<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>DEET\u00a0<\/strong>&#8211; DEET is a common ingredient found in mosquito sprays and lotions, and for good reason. DEET is extremely effective as a mosquito repellent, and the products that use it as an active ingredient are generally good at keeping mosquitoes off you.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Picaridin<\/strong>\u00a0&#8211; Because it hasn&#8217;t been around as long as DEET, picaridin isn&#8217;t quite as prevalent. However, this ingredient is comparable in efficacy to DEET, standing out as one of the most effective mosquito repellent compounds out there.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mosquito Traps\u00a0<\/strong>&#8211; There&#8217;s a wide range of mosquito traps out there, with the most effective models utilizing mosquito bait and the release of CO\u00b2.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>What Doesn&#8217;t Work<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Citronella Candles<\/strong>\u00a0&#8211; Citronella can be an effective pest repellent, but it&#8217;s simply ineffective in candle form. These candles haven&#8217;t been shown to be any more effective than regular candles in protecting you from mosquitoes, which isn&#8217;t very effective at all.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sonic Devices\u00a0<\/strong>&#8211; Some devices have popped up in the marketplace that claim to keep mosquitoes at bay by emitting the sound of a dragonfly. However, if you&#8217;ve ever been to a lake in the summer, you&#8217;ll know that the dragonflies buzzing around don&#8217;t do much to protect you from mosquito bites.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Wristbands<\/strong>\u00a0&#8211; Even if a wristband can offer some level of protection from mosquitoes, it only protects your wrist, leaving the rest of your body open and unprotected.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Our Professional Mosquito Spraying in Norcross<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Deterrents can help you avoid getting covered in mosquito bites, but they aren&#8217;t nearly as effective as our professional mosquito spraying treatments. For top-notch protection without the stress of messing around with deterrents, turn to our team at\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Dunwoody, Duluth, &amp; Norcross.<\/p>\n<p>We offer top-notch mosquito spraying to our neighbors in these areas:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Norcross<\/li>\n<li>Duluth<\/li>\n<li>Doraville<\/li>\n<li>Dunwoody<\/li>\n<li>Sandy Springs<\/li>\n<li>And throughout the surrounding communities<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>To learn about professional mosquito spraying in Norcross, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/dunwoody-ga\/contact_lawn_doctor\/\">contact us<\/a> today!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mosquitoes can be a headache when you&#8217;re trying to enjoy your time outdoors.
