Standing Water in Your Yard Is a Huge Mosquito-Breeding Factory!

As you’ve undoubtedly noticed, we’ve been receiving an exceptional amount of rain. While it’s better than the drought we saw last summer, it also means that pesky mosquitoes will be more capable of laying eggs and having them reach maturity. Remember, it only takes enough water to fill a bottle lid to breed hundreds of mosquitoes. With that in mind, how many mosquitoes do you think can hatch tomorrow out of that tarp covering your wood pile?

Mosquitoes here in Worcester MA are having very little trouble finding a suitable place to lay their eggs. But, why allow them to turn your backyard into a maternity ward for blood-thirsty, biting mosquitoes? All you have to do is make certain that you don’t leave objects in your yard that can collect water. While our barrier application is extremely effective, you can help in keeping the mosquito population down within your own yard.
