With so many anti-mosquito products and tips out there, it can be difficult to know what is real. At Lawn Doctor of North Sarasota-Bradenton, we provide expert mosquito spraying for Palmetto residents. Our goal is to deliver fast, effective treatments to reduce these pests, disrupt their breeding, and restore peace to your yard. We’d also like to share our tips about some mosquito products that simply do not work.
If you search ‘mosquitoes’ in the app store, you’ll find various apps claiming to repel mosquitoes through your phone. These apps allegedly work by emitting dragonfly sounds. Dragonflies eat mosquitoes, so the threat of their presence is supposed to scare them off. The only problem is that this simply does not work. The fact is, mosquitoes are desperate and aggressive pests that draw our blood to support their offspring. They are ready to bite you or die trying.
Another common myth regarding mosquito prevention is the use of citronella candles. These candles have long been thought to offer special protection against mosquitoes. In reality, they achieve the same result as any ordinary candle. They lure mosquitoes by emitting carbon dioxide, heat, and moisture. There is absolutely no reason to spend your money on this specific product.
Now that we’ve covered a couple of anti-mosquito ‘solutions’ that don’t live up to the hype let’s look at a few options that actually work.
Products and Tactics To Supplement Our Expert Mosquito Spraying
- Chemical Repellents. Those with DEET or picaridin as the active ingredients can deliver excellent protection for your skin.
- Lemon Eucalyptus Oil. The CDC recommends this as a botanical alternative to chemical skin repellents.
- Mosquito Traps. These work to reduce mosquitoes around your property, especially when placed in a high-volume area.
- Prevent Standing Water. Mosquitoes need standing water to breed, so limiting these habitats around your yard is crucial.
