Keeping these harmful insects at bay is crucial to maintaining an outdoor environment you can feel comfortable in. And there are several products out there that claim to help you do just that. However, not all of these products live up to these claims. We&#8217;ll go through some common mosquito deterrents below and go into whether or not they actually work. And to keep these pests out of your outdoor spaces without the stress of relying on deterrents, choose our professional mosquito spraying in Fair Oaks, GA.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Truth About Common Mosquito Deterrents<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a quick look at some of the most common mosquito deterrents and if they actually help you keep these pests at bay:<\/p>\n<p><strong>What Works<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>DEET &#8211;\u00a0<\/strong>You&#8217;ve likely used DEET products once or twice before, as DEET is one of the most common ingredients used in mosquito repellent sprays and lotions. The reason why it&#8217;s used so commonly in these products is because it&#8217;s extremely effective at preventing mosquitoes from landing on you and biting you.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Picaridin &#8211;\u00a0<\/strong>Picaridin is similar to DEET in how it&#8217;s used and its effectiveness, but it&#8217;s not as common due to not being available for use in the US until recently.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mosquito Traps &#8211;\u00a0<\/strong>There are several types of mosquito traps, but they generally use carbon dioxide and mosquito bait to attract and trap these insects. These devices are effective when it comes to killing mosquitoes, but they can also be expensive.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>What Doesn&#8217;t Work<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Citronella Candles &#8211;\u00a0<\/strong>In candle form, Citronella hasn&#8217;t been shown to be any more effective than household candles when it comes to keeping mosquitoes away from you.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Wristbands &#8211;\u00a0<\/strong>Regardless of the protection that pest wristbands provide, they only protect your wrist, leaving the rest of your body\u00a0vulnerable\u00a0to mosquito bites.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sonic Devices &#8211;\u00a0<\/strong>Some devices claim to keep mosquitoes away from you by emitting dragonfly sounds. However, these products should be avoided, as there&#8217;s no evidence that the sound of dragonflies actually does anything to deter mosquitoes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Why Choose Our Professional Mosquito Spraying in Fair Oaks<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Choosing our professional mosquito spraying helps Fair Oaks area residents protect their outdoor spaces without the need to constantly refill traps or reapply sprays.
