Mosquitoes are a headache every summer. Instead of covering yourself with bug spray, take a different approach. When you start early to control mosquitoes and combine those measures with a professional mosquito spraying service, homeowners like you from Great Bridge to Chesapeake, VA and beyond can keep insects in check. You’ll be able to step outdoors with confidence and enjoy more peace and quiet. Here’s what to do and why early steps are so important.
Why Early Mosquito Spraying is Key
During winter, mosquitoes don’t all die off. Instead, like other animals, some hibernate over winter and lay eggs that hatch in spring. Once conditions are around 50°F and above consistently, these eggs hatch and mosquitoes emerge, ready to attack.
Once you notice a lot of buzzing and biting, you already have an infestation. More serious measures or additional spraying might therefore be required. However, when you take steps early in the season, you’ll be able to avoid this from happening during the height of summer and when you’re trying to enjoy life outside.
The best way to keep unwanted mosquitoes away is to check your lawn for areas with stagnant water. Anything from clogged gutters to flower pots, old tarps, buckets, kiddie pools, and bird baths can be breeding grounds for mosquitoes. Remove or drain these to get rid of the sites where mosquitoes propagate.
Besides spraying, another way to avoid mosquitoes in the Great Bridge area is to install yellow lighting outdoors, rather than white lights. Mosquitoes can’t see yellow as clearly as white, so they’re less likely to find you and your family when you’re trying to eat dinner or relax outside at night.
