Summertime Entertaining Tip: How to Keep Your Outdoor Events Mosquito Free

Isn’t it wonderful to see the sun? After a long winter and chilly spring, it’s finally time to start hosting outdoor events. Whether you’re thinking a casual barbecue with your buddies, an elegant tea party in the garden, or the sort of family reunion everyone will be talking about for generations, it’s time to have some fun.

Do you know what is not fun? Being bit by mosquitoes is not fun. The bites are itchy and uncomfortable. Even worse, mosquitoes carry dangerous diseases. As the host, you really don’t want to be responsible for any of your guests becoming ill.

What are you supposed to do to keep mosquitoes from biting your guests? It’s hardly polite to douse everyone down with insect repellant. We turned to the lifestyle experts – wedding planners and event organizers – and asked them what the secret was to mosquito free events.

The answer – turn to your local lawn service. In Pembroke, mosquito control services include special event mosquito control. Generally provided the day before or morning of special events, the mosquito control products are applied to eliminate all active mosquitoes from the property. These products are family and pet safe, so all of your guests will be able to enjoy your events without worry.

What about those of you who entertain all of the time? Pembroke mosquito control services are also available to rid your landscape of pesky biting pests on an ongoing basis. This includes identifying and eliminating mosquito breeding sites; eliminating adult mosquitoes from their nest sites and taking steps to discourage the mosquitoes from returning.

Generally, mosquito control services are required on a bi-weekly or monthly basis, with additional treatments sometimes needed after extended periods of heavy rain. Mosquitoes are most active in our region from now until early September. After that, party planning becomes a little easier as it will be too cold for mosquitoes!
