There are quite a few things that make mosquitoes the most annoying pests in the world.
As a result, getting rid of mosquitoes in your Central and Southern Maryland yard today is more important than ever.
Let’s review the 3 best ways to get rid of mosquitoes in your yard so you can stop worrying and get back to enjoying your outdoor plans.
Your home and landscape is your safe haven, and you’ve spent a lot of time and invested your hard-earned dollars into making it warm and inviting.
Unfortunately, mosquitoes don’t care. Take back your yard by monitoring these specific outdoor areas that help you best get rid of mosquitoes.
There are a few key facts you should understand about these nagging pests so you can get a better handle on how to get rid of mosquitoes.
Mosquitoes can go from eggs to bloodthirsty adults in approximately 8 days.
And all mosquito eggs require some form of water to hatch--whether the specific species lays eggs directly on water or in small collections of stagnant water.
That’s why one great way to get rid of mosquitoes in your yard is to control any pools of standing water. Here are a few ways you can do that:
Mosquitoes don’t often hide in lawns or low, open areas.
But they do love dense trees, shrubs, and vegetation. They have parties under decks. They like cool, moist places without a lot of sun or wind. They enjoy humidity.
You can minimize mosquito harborage places by limiting the places where they like to hide. Make sure your trees and shrubs are properly trimmed and tidy. Limit woodpiles and other things near your home that create these ideal conditions and you’ll get rid of mosquitoes.
Now that you’ve controlled as many of the mosquito breeding grounds on your property as you can, it’s time to target what you can’t control: the mosquitoes that will breed from nearby, like your neighbors’ yards.
All breeds of mosquitoes only fly a short distance before they must land to rest, so to get rid of mosquitoes in your yard, we recommend mosquito control every 30 days from April through October.
When we spray to get rid of mosquitoes, we use a backpack mister and release a fine mist, targeting the undersides of trees and shrubs, under decks and near other common harborage places.
By controlling and limiting adults, we also limit the production of more eggs and more resulting mosquitoes. Mosquitoes are constantly breeding. That means that the populations we can control this year will mean fewer mosquitoes that erupt come spring the following year.
You want a yard that is free of pesky mosquitoes--their buzz, their bite, and their nasty, disease-carrying presence. That’s what we want, too. Your outdoor barbecue doesn’t need any unwanted visitors.
Stop battling mosquitoes and start living your outdoor summer life worry-free!
