    Invest in professional cleaning & landscaping

    Mosquitoes look for damp grounds and stagnant water to lay eggs and hide behind debris and everything else in your yard. Cleaning up the yard and garden and landscaping the existing hedges, plants, and trees is a good place to start. Also, overhanging trees provide shelter to other pests, too and must be trimmed.

    Get rid of standing water

    You may find small pools of standing water in your yard, which are perfect breeding sites for mosquitoes. Check sources like open trash can lids, garden pots, unused toys, buckets, and small pools of water. The gutters could also offer a thriving ground for pests. Ensure that you call the professionals for a check and clean the gutters extensively every few months.

    Use essential oils and plant the right plants

    Certain plants contain essential oils and fragrances, which can help prevent mosquitos. You can consider planting plants like lemongrass, citronella, lavender, and catnip. You can also use lemongrass and citronella essential oils inside the house to keep mosquitoes at bay. Other essential oils to consider are peppermint, sage, and basil.

    Try candles and diffusers

    It can be hard to prevent pests from getting inside your house, especially mosquitos that are tiny and hard to spot during the daytime. Get candles, lanterns, and diffusers that contain essential oils like clove, lavender, and citronella to repel these small insects inside your home. You can also use peppermint, eucalyptus, and rosemary oils in a diffuser.

    Try mosquito traps

    You can invest in a few mosquito traps that can prevent these pests from entering a space. Of course, not all mosquito traps are the same. When you call a pest control company to tackle an infestation, ask them about the type of traps you can consider, along with other products that can be used in conjunction.

    Check online for the best-rated pest control services in Nampa and get their experts to inspect your home for signs of mosquito breeding and infestation.
