There’s nothing more annoying than being swarmed by mosquitoes when you’re trying to enjoy your outside space. Avoid this by taking an earlier approach to keeping these insects in check. With a few simple measures, such as mosquito spraying, homeowners like you, from Brecksville to Beachwood, OH and beyond, can take back control and enjoy a season of peace and comfort.
Why Early Mosquito Spraying Is Key
The end of summer doesn’t mean mosquitoes die off, their eggs overwinter in our climate. So, as soon as the temperatures begin to warm up, those eggs begin to hatch. Once spring conditions arrive and temperatures start rising, insects become active once again with eggs hatching. In addition, the warm, wet conditions of this spring were ideal for these pests to breed and populate your lawn. Did you know that every single female mosquito can lay up to 600 eggs in her lifetime? She will lay eggs every 3 days for her entire four – five week life cycle.
As temperatures increase into the height of summer, mosquitoes breed even more rapidly. As they do, they can buzz and bite, transmitting diseases to your loved ones and pets. If you don’t treat your yard for them, it is quite likely that their eggs will simply wait until next spring and you will be faced with the same problem next season, repeating the cycle all over again.
By taking some early steps, though, you can make your lawn and yard a less inviting place for them. Besides mosquito spraying, one of the best steps homeowners in the Brecksville area can take is to remove or empty out standing water. Make sure flower pots are drained, buckets and wheelbarrows are emptied, and any other places holding water are removed. If you have a bird bath, dump out the water and refill it each week. Even a bottle cap can hold enough water for a mosquito to lay her eggs in.
Another way to keep mosquitoes away from your lawn is to focus on the places where they like to hide. They prefer dark, cool spaces, so they will land in overgrown shrubs and bushes, as well as tall grasses. Trimming these back and routinely mowing will ensure your lawn and yard is a less hospitable place for mosquitoes.
