| Mosquito Control Options Controlling mosquitoes can be accomplished through several methods, including mosquito repellents, mosquito traps, and prevention. Keep in mind control does not mean elimination, since that would be virtually impossible.
Mosquito Repellents Insecticides like Safer®Brand’s OMRI listed® Mosquito and Tick Killer can be used to kill the insects that are currently in your yard.
Mosquito repellents include mosquito granules for lawns and gardens and repellent sprays for humans. Dr. T’s Nature Products® Mosquito Repelling Granules, a professionally tested and proven effective mosquito repellent, contain natural oils of lemon grass, mint and garlic oil. Since this mosquito repellent is environmentally friendly and biodegradable, it will not hurt lawns or gardens. Mosquito repellent sprays for humans may or may not contain DEET. There are some experts that frown on the use of DEET, while others feel this mosquito repellent product does not cause harm to people. Further research may need to be done on the effects of DEET in mosquito repellents.
Mosquito Traps

Mosquito Prevention
Besides mosquito repellents and traps, another key to control is prevention including eliminating places where mosquitoes can breed. Remove old tires and vases filled with water, unattended bird baths, even cups and bottles containing water. In other words, make sure there is no stagnant water left in your yard. Combining prevention with these control options, like Dr. T’s Nature Products® Mosquito Repelling Granules, can be a very effective holistic approach to combat these vectors of serious and fatal diseases. Dr. T’s Nature Products® offers a variety of innovative solutions to effectively control mosquitoes by providing powerful, natural products for your specific mosquito control needs. |
