The warm, long days of summer are the perfect time to finally get outside for relaxation, meals, and time with friends and family. You have invested a lot of money and effort getting your outdoor living space ready for the season, and you should enjoy it! But when uninvited guests arrive to buzz and bite, the nuisance is enough to drive everyone back inside.This year, control the mosquitoes before they control you. Blue Grass Lawn Service & Landscaping, Inc. can help you keep your summer space free of these unwelcome bugs. Your family and invited guests will love to hang out in your no-mosquito zone.

Temporary and Partial Mosquito Solutions Can’t Solve the Problem

Every year, homeowners go to great lengths to finally solve their mosquito problem, and every year, they and their families still end up with far too many itchy red bites. Most traditional mosquito solutions are only temporary, or they have very limited effectiveness.

Citronella Candles

Citronella candles are a popular tool for repelling mosquitoes and other bugs, but they aren’t the best fit for every home. Citronella has a strong scent, which can be irritating to many people. If anyone has allergies or sinus problems that are triggered by strong smells, citronella might be enough to keep them away from your backyard. Citronella also only works when the candles are lit, and only in their immediate area. To really control mosquitoes, you would need to keep candles going the whole time you’re outside, and at every location in your outdoor living space. If you like to spread out around the deck, pool, and backyard fire pit, you’ll be going through a lot of candles!

Bug Zappers and Hanging Traps

Bug zappers and hanging traps are also pretty limited. Zappers usually need to be placed near the house where they can be plugged in. Traps get to be a pretty gross sight once the bugs start accumulating in them. Plus, who knows how many bites that mosquito might deliver before it finds its way into the zappers and traps? Because of their limited range and either annoying sound or unpleasant sight, zappers and traps are not the ideal mosquito solution.

Mosquito sprays

Mosquito sprays are one other option, but they are laden with chemicals. Who wants to cover themselves and their kids in sticky, smelly chemicals every time they want to head outside? Sprays may not be good for your skin, and they certainly aren’t great to breathe. If you forget to spray before you head outside, you’re fair game for the bites. And if you’re getting sweaty or spending time in the water, the chemicals will wear off faster than you think. 

All of these solutions are limited at best, and totally ineffective - or even dangerous - at worst. It’s important to keep in mind that none of them actually solve the mosquito problem, either! They might protect a small area or individual people, but they do not rid your outdoor living space of these nasty bugs.
