Nothing can cut into your ability to enjoy the outdoors quite like a horde of mosquitoes, especially when they’re surrounding your home. Mosquitoes, in addition to being just plain bothersome, can carry disease and present a health risk for your family and pets. With Lawn Doctor of The Woodlands-Magnolia-Tomball, you can enjoy your lawn again without the nagging fear of being itchy the next day. We offer our effective mosquito control services to homeowners in The Woodlands, Spring, Magnolia and Tomball, TX areas to keep their yards pest-free through the seasons.
Although DIY efforts are often not enough to completely address a mosquito problem, there are steps you can take to make a significant impact. Here are a few of the things you can do around the yard to put a dent in your mosquito troubles without having to call in professional mosquito control services:
- Eliminate Standing Water Areas
Standing water is a welcome mat for mosquitoes, and is also their breeding ground. After the rain, check any problem areas where standing water might accumulate to reduce mosquitoes’ chances to breed.
- Naturally Repel Mosquitoes
There are a few plants that serve as a natural mosquito repellant, and growing them in your garden or keeping them around the porch can help keep the area clear. Plants like basil and lavender contain certain chemicals that mosquitoes aren’t too fond of, and can help keep them at bay.
- Manage Organic Waste
Leaf litter and other organic waste, if it’s strewn all over your back yard, can attract mosquitoes and provide them with a place to breed. Keeping your lawn clear of wet leaves and organic matter can go a long way in preventing an invasion.
