You&#8217;re enjoying your backyard on a beautiful summer night. Suddenly, a mosquito is buzzing around your head, then another and another. You&#8217;re getting eaten alive\u00a0and annoyed, too. Sound familiar? As local mosquito control experts, we\u00a0know it&#8217;s a common problem for homeowners, whether you live in Wayne,\u00a0Berwyn, Frazer, St. Davids, Radnor, PA or beyond. We also know\u00a0if you&#8217;re one of those always under attack, there could be a reason. In fact,\u00a0mosquitoes are most attracted to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Those with higher metabolic rates. <\/strong>This translates into more carbon dioxide production in your breath, which is how mosquitoes detect humans. Conditions such as pregnancy, as well as obesity can increase CO2 production, as can a high metabolism.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Moving objects.<\/strong> Mosquitoes can spot moving targets from many feet away\u00a0and will gravitate toward them over still objects.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Certain blood types and secretions.\u00a0<\/strong>Some people produce different secretions that are more attractive to mosquitoes. Type O blood can also make you a more enticing target than\u00a0Type A or B.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Tips for\u00a0Mosquito Control in the Wayne-Area<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Now that you know why you&#8217;re always getting bitten, what can you do to cut your exposure and limit your risk for bites?

Here&#8217;s a look:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Choose clothing wisely. <\/strong>Opt for lighter colors that are harder for mosquitoes to see and tightly woven fabrics that they can&#8217;t bite through.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Don&#8217;t go outside during dusk and dawn.<\/strong> This is the time period when mosquitoes are most active and likely to attack, so opt for indoor activities instead.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Get rid of standing water on your property.<\/strong> Kiddie pools, bird baths, flower pots, loose tarps, and other areas that collect standing water are breeding hot spots. By eliminating these, you&#8217;re taking away areas where mosquitoes live and nest.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Clean up your lawn.<\/strong> Mosquitoes gravitate toward tall grasses and shrubs that are overgrown, as well as wood and leaf piles. So clean up these areas around your lawn to reduce populations.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Call in professional help.<\/strong> If you&#8217;re still dealing with mosquito control issues, connect with Wayne-area\u00a0experts like those at\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Havertown, Lansdale, Boyertown, Tredyffrin.
