Get rid of standing water

Water is a breeding ground for mosquitos. We suggest to regularly change water or constantly check wheelbarrows, buckets, or old flowerpots that may have been forgotten or placed outside.

 

 

 

By installing a turf lawn, you can get rid of the hassle of lawn maintenance and control the pest population rather than spending hours of labor and hundreds of dollars cutting and treating your grass for bugs. Due to the lack of water and easy access to organic materials as a food source, artificial turf is a great insect prevention.

 

 

There are numerous plants that are naturally insect repellent, yet some, like a grassy lawn, attract bugs as a habitat and food source. You can repel insects and make your house and outdoor spaces smell good by choosing a variety of each and placing them:

 
Basil: flies, mosquitoes
Catnip: mosquitoes, ticks, flies, cockroaches
Chrysanthemums: roaches, ants, ticks, fleas, bedbugs
Lavender: moths, fleas, flies, mosquitoes
Lemongrass: mosquitoes
Geranium: mosquitoes
Lemon thyme: mosquitoes
Marigold: mosquitoes
Rosemary: mosquitoes
Bay Leaves: flies
Floss Flowers: mosquitoes
