Do mosquitoes try to make a meal out of you each time you step outdoors? There are many ways to keep them at bay. Unfortunately, some products are just hype and don’t deliver much protection. So how can you tell what works and what doesn’t? As experts in mosquito spraying in Haddon Heights, Cherry Hill, and nearby areas in NJ, we know how to stop mosquitoes and protect your lawn and loved ones. Avoid trial-and-error and just follow our tips below for a better summer season.
- Do use the right insect repellent. There are many products available on the market in and around Haddon Heights that are sold as mosquito sprays. However, the only ones that are proven to work are those containing DEET, Picaridin, or lemon eucalyptus oil as the active ingredient.
- Do clean up your yard. Any areas with standing water are attractive to mosquitoes because it’s where females lay eggs. So, refresh water in your bird bath on a weekly basis, clean out gutters that are clogged, and dump out buckets, wheelbarrows, grill covers, and anything else with stagnant water.
- Don’t use an app. Though it seems like there’s an app for everything, there is yet to be an effective one designed for mosquito control. Some claim to work by sending out a sound that’s similar to dragonflies, which are natural predators of mosquitoes. Unfortunately, when tested, they aren’t effective.
- Don’t use a wrist band. Another product that seems like it would work, but unfortunately provides little protection, are wrist bands with insect repellent. They might protect your wrist, but not much more than that.
