Mosquitos

The best method to reduce mosquito breeding on your property is to limit the number of potential sources. Walk your yard and check to see how many of these breeding sites you have on your property. If standing water is found, remove the water or remove the source. If the source is not removed, you must check weekly for standing water to prevent mosquito breeding. Use this checklist to help find and eliminate all the places that mosquitoes breed around your home. Remember to remain vigilant to keep containers free of standing water all year long.
