You can count on us to reduce mosquito activity around your home or business and provide you with a more pleasant outdoor environment. For outdoor adventures away from home, rely on skin repellents to deter mosquito bites. Chemical repellents with DEET or picaridin as the active ingredient are the most effective. The CDC recommends lemon eucalyptus oil if you’d rather utilize a botanical option.

While these solutions will enhance your protection from mosquitoes, there are many options out there that fail to match their claims of mosquito protection. Let’s take a look at which products to avoid.

Anti-Mosquito Tactics That Do Not Work

Unless you enjoy being covered in itchy mosquito bites, we encourage you not to rely on any of these methods of ‘protection’:

  • Mosquito-Repelling Smartphone Apps. Since dragonflies prey on mosquitoes, these apps emit dragonfly sounds as a form of repellent. While this is an interesting idea, conclusive testing of these apps has shown that they do nothing to keep these bloodthirsty pests away.
  • Protective Wristbands. A band worn around your wrist that emits mosquito repellents will only function as minimal protection for your wrist. It will not help deter mosquitoes from your legs, upper arms or other areas of exposed skin.
  • Citronella Candles. These candles provide no more protection than any regular candle, so don’t waste your money.

Trusted Mosquito Spraying in the Howell Area

To reduce future populations of mosquitoes, you need to control the amount of standing water on your property. Mosquitoes can make quick use of any amount of standing water to lay their eggs and support their offspring. By removing these habitats, our professionals can quickly diminish their rapid breeding cycle and help you avoid a more serious infestation.

We combine anti-breeding tactics with powerful spray treatments to deliver comprehensive relief for homes and businesses. Lawn Doctor of Lakewood-Jackson-Howell operates throughout:
