Mosquito Guardian: Westchester Mosquito Control Programs
Mosquito Prevention Tips: Fighting Mosquitos can be hard, here are some tips to help you keep your home mosquito-free! Mosquitos love to breed in water, they only need a bottle cap full to lay their eggs! Any stagnant water that stands for at least a week or so can become a good spot for mosquitoes to lay eggs. Mosquitoes have four stages: egg, larvae, pupae and adult, the first 3 out of 4 occur in water. That is why it is important to make sure to check for any areas where water sits and fix it accordingly. Examples of this include: - Turning over any buckets, lids, wheelbarrows or other containers. - If you have a pet who uses a water bowl make sure to dump and refill daily with fresh water - Keep any protective tarps taught, water will build up on bunched or wrinkled surfaces. - If you have kids that like to play outside, check to make sure all of their toys are turned over or put away If you see any low spots, divots or ditches that have trouble draining water try adding soil, sod or a drainage system so that the water will be able to move. Remove any built up debris (like branches, thatch and leaves) to reduce potential egg laying areas Do not keep your fire wood laying directly on the ground. Use a firewood rack so that you increase air flow to the wood piles. Make sure to check your gutters, just because you see water flowing does not mean there are not low points or built up debris that are retaining small amounts. Replace the water on bird baths at least once a week Keep your lawn and plants maintained:
