In fact, North Carolina has one of the worst mosquito problems in the country. That&#8217;s why we&#8217;ll always recommend mosquito spraying throughout the year. It&#8217;s just one of the many expert lawn care services we offer for your home.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll find a lot of myths about what works and what doesn&#8217;t for mosquito control. Here&#8217;s a quick overview of what you should know.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>4 Pro Tips For Mosquito Control in Matthews\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>For homeowners in Matthews, it&#8217;s tempting to try everything when it comes to mosquito control. But some methods are simply more effective than others. Let&#8217;s review what does and doesn&#8217;t work:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: disc;\"><strong>Don&#8217;t count on citronella candles. <\/strong>While citronella candles seem to be popular every year, they&#8217;re unfortunately not that effective. Studies show that they don&#8217;t do much when it comes to keeping mosquitoes away. While they may briefly distract mosquitoes, drawing them closer to the candle, a regular candle would do just the same thing.<\/li>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: disc;\"><strong>Mow the lawn regularly.\u00a0<\/strong>Mosquitoes love shady areas where they can shelter during the warmest hours of the day. Tall grass, weeds, and dense shrubbery offer perfect places for them to hide out. Be sure to regularly mow your grass plants, so they&#8217;re not tall enough to protect mosquitoes or even ticks.<\/li>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: disc;\"><strong>Bug zappers can have mixed results.\u00a0<\/strong>Bug zappers are another common tool when it comes to DIY mosquito treatments, but you can look forward to patchy results. In fact, zappers are more likely to catch other insects like moths or beetles instead\u2014bugs that can be important to your yard&#8217;s flourishing ecosystem.<\/li>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: disc;\"><strong>Set a mosquito spraying schedule.\u00a0<\/strong>Spraying on a schedule is a great way to get\u00a0mosquitoes to back off your turf.\u00a0When you get in touch with our lawn care team in the Matthews area, we can always schedule mosquito treatments throughout the warm months.
