How To Get Rid of Mosquito's

How to get rid of mosquito's is not rocket science. There are actually many ways to reach the same result and there are other ways to drastically reduce the number of unwanted mosquito. I have been using some of these methods successfully till today, some require more effort whereas some solution require practically no effort at all. In order to understand how this works, we must understand two crucial approaches, its either ''only a dead mosquito is a good mosquito or keep mosquito at bay but dont kill em''. Having said that, lets dive further into this matter. There are more than 3,500 species of mosquitoes. About 175 of them are found in the United States, with the Anopheles quadrimaculatus, Culex pipiens,Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus (Asian tiger mosquito) among the most common. Not all mosquitos carry diseases, but several species can transmit potentially dangerous diseases like Zika and West Nile Virus. Mosquito species have different activity patterns and feeding preferences (some bite birds; others prefer mammals like us humans), but they all share the same basic life cycle and habitat preferences, which means you can control them all the same way. The techniques that work best have one thing in common: they make your home inhospitable to pests.

An alternative method is the box fan method, economic and very efficient.

Or BTI bacillus naturally non toxic to environment. This is one of the most effortless methods. What does BTI actually do? Bacillus thuringiensis subspecies israelensis (Bti) bacteria is found in soil. Bti is used as a larvicide to kill larvae before they can grow into adults that can bite people. Bti has been used for mosquito control for more than 30 years.

Bits can be sprinkled on the soils surface or mixed with potting soil prior to planting will kill fungus gnat larvae with the same safety and target specific control offered for mosquito larvae.

Another way to drastically reduce the number of mosquito in your backyard is to have dragonflies. Yes, each dragonfly can eat around 100 mosquito's per day. So if you happen to have a pond, a dragonfly will do the rest. And if that is not enough, a gold fish or two in your pond will make sure that your pond stays mosquito larvae free.

Another way to get rid of mosquito is by purple LED light. It's basically an electric mosquito killer gadget. I personally have never used this gadget before, perhaps this review gives a glimpse on how this thing works. Many people use it for camping activities and some use this mosquito killer gadget at their terrace after 6pm.

Most mosquitoes can fly no more than one to three miles, and some mosquitoes such as the Asian tiger mosquito have a flight range of just 100 yards or so. So they're always looking for a place to land or a place to lay eggs, and water is an attractive option. Eliminate standing water where mosquitoes breed by emptying the saucers for plants, hauling off old tires, cleaning rain gutters, and frequently changing the water in birdbaths. Don't leave pet bowls filled with water outside when your pets are indoors. Look out for water that gathers in pool covers, buckets, and trash cans. Even discarded Frisbees, toys, and lids can collect water after it rains and attract mosquitoes.

Walk around your property with an eye for puddles. Fix the problem, and mosquitoes won't have a place to lay eggs. Stock ornamental ponds with mosquito fish that eat the larva or treat the water with larvicide mosquito rings sold at home and garden stores.

Like their fellow bloodsuckers, vampires, adult mosquitoes rest during daylight. Mosquitoes spend daylight hours hiding among vegetation. Reduce mosquito shelter in your yard by trimming weeds and keeping the grass short.

You can get rid of mosquitoes by attracting bats, one of their most feared predators. In one night, one single brown bat can eat 1,000 mosquito-sized insects.

To make that dinnertime feat easier, why not install a bat house to create a mosquito-free yard? Typically made of wood, bat houses can take many forms and can be many sizes. They can be small, backyard boxes or freestanding towers on tall poles to support colonies. Place the house where it will get at least six hours of sunlight per day, facing south, east, or southeast in most climates, and paint the outside a dark color to absorb heat.
