When you step outdoors, you want to relax and enjoy life. However, mosquitoes can suck the fun from your time outside. The good news is that there are many ways you can stop them from biting. Yet, with a wide selection available, which do you choose? Lawn Doctor of Dover-Middletown has the answers. As a leading mosquito spraying service in Clayton, Middletown, and surrounding areas in DE, we know what works and what to avoid.
- Do buy the right repellent. Not all insect repellents are the same. The only ones that are effective are those that contain active ingredients, such as DEET, Picaridin, or if you’d like a more natural remedy, lemon eucalyptus oil. These have all been tried and tested.
- Do eliminate breeding sites. Make sure all standing water is emptied or removed from your yard. This includes anything from kiddie pools and tarps to buckets, clogged gutters, and wheelbarrows full of water. If you have a bird bath, change the water on a weekly basis to keep mosquitoes from breeding in it.
- Do place a fan outside. A fan can be surprisingly effective because it clears away the body odors and carbon dioxide that attracts mosquitoes. It also makes it harder for insects to reach you, since they’re not strong fliers.
- Don’t use apps and sonic devices. While these sound cool and cutting-edge, they don’t work. Designed to emit a sound similar to a dragonfly, which is the natural predator of a mosquito, they haven’t been effective when tested.
