Mosquitoes are a nuisance every year. Before numbers get out of control in your lawn, take steps to make it a less hospitable place for these insects. Combined with mosquito spraying from a professional like Lawn Doctor of Hartford-Manchester & Farmington-Simsbury, you’ll be able to enjoy a season of peace and quiet without buzzing and biting.
Why Early Mosquito Spraying is Key
Just because winter arrives, doesn’t mean mosquitoes disappear. In fact, some species hibernate throughout the season and lay eggs before they do. As temperatures rise during spring, these eggs hatch and insects attack.
As temperatures continue to increase into summer, mosquitoes breed even more rapidly. It’s why, if you don’t take steps now, once the height of summer arrives, you’ll have an infestation. It will sabotage your time outdoors grilling, entertaining, or relaxing with your family.
The good news? If your Manchester-area lawn is typically a hot spot for mosquitoes, you can make it less vulnerable by spraying, as well as:
- Checking for standing water. Anything from old tarps behind the shed to buckets, kiddie pools, and bird baths provide the perfect place for mosquitoes to breed. Even clogged gutters are another common source. Find and eliminate or drain these.
- Cutting back overgrown shrubs and bushes. Since mosquitoes like cool, shady spots, overgrown shrubs, bushes, and tall grasses attract them. When you prune these back and keep them maintained during the season, you’ll remove the places where they land and hide during the day.
- Changing white lights to yellow. For mosquitoes, yellow lights aren’t as visible as white lights. So, change your white bulbs to yellow ones outdoors and make yourself and your backyard a less visible target for mosquitoes.
