Banish mosquitoes from your summer parties with Mosquito Squad of Austin. Follow these tips!
The perfect venue, guests showing up in their very best, delicious food, fantastic décor – what could go wrong? Here in Austin, mosquitoes and other outdoor insects could turn your party into a depart-y! If there is anywhere on Earth you don’t want to fight mosquitoes, it’s during outdoor parties and events. Don’t allow mosquitoes to send your guests packing – show them the proverbial door instead!
Decorate with Mosquito Repellents
Believe it or not, some mosquito repellents can play double-duty as part of your décor scheme. For instance, citronella candles and torches can help make outdoor events beautiful and repel mosquitoes in the immediate vicinity. You can also decorate with floral arrangements that repel mosquitoes, like lavender and lemongrass.
If you are using special event lighting, be sure to use LED bulbs and fixtures in place of traditional incandescent lights, which emit heat to draw insects in.
FUN FACT: Did you know that mosquitoes are attracted to certain colors? You can let your guests know which colors to wear that might make them less enticing to mosquitoes. White, green, blue, and purple are not mosquito-friendly colors.
