As the summer season approaches, you’re probably looking forward to more time outside. Don’t let mosquitoes take a bite out of your enjoyment. Instead, with a few simple steps now combined with a mosquito spraying service, Terrace Park homeowners like you in and across Southeast Cincinnati, can keep insects in check. When you step outdoors, to grill, entertain, or just relax, you’ll be able to raise a toast to a quiet, comfortable yard.
Why Early Mosquito Spraying Is Key
Ohio winters can be cold and snowy. However, that doesn’t mean the temperatures kill all mosquitoes. As temperatures go below 50°F degrees consistently, certain species actually go into hibernation, while others lay their eggs in freezing water, preserving them. That means as temperatures warm up, eggs hatch and hibernating mosquitoes become active once again.
Into summer, as the weather gets hotter, mosquito propagation is accelerated. In fact, mosquitoes breed rapidly as it gets hotter, infesting your lawn if you don’t take action. Once you notice a problem, you have to take more drastic measures – which is why early steps are important.
Besides mosquito spraying, one step homeowners like you in the Terrace Park area should take is to remove standing water in your yard. Anything that collects water and sits offers a prime spot for females to lay eggs. So, drain flower pot saucers, dump out buckets and wheelbarrows, empty kiddie pools after each use, and refill bird baths with fresh water.
Another way to prevent infestations is with routine lawn maintenance. When your yard is neat and tidy, it’s less hospitable for mosquitoes, which gravitate toward shady, overgrown areas. Some steps to take include pruning back shrubs and bushes, mowing your grass routinely, and cleaning up any clutter, like leaf litter.
