Mosquito repellent

For our coming summer nights in the backyard...

Find this mosquito repellent in the area behind the driers.

 

Make sure you generously scatter it on leafy and damp areas about an hour before you are planning to sit outside. This repellent will be wiped out by rain.

Also, as a general rule, the best way to reduce mosquitos — besides using sprays and repellents — is by emptying anything that holds water. 

'Tip and Toss': Tip over items that you can’t dispose of to empty water where mosquito larvae may be found. Then toss any items in your backyard that you don’t need anymore and may be sources of mosquito breeding. The EPA suggests getting rid of any potential mosquito habitats by:

-    Draining standing water in rain gutters, old tires, buckets, plastic covers, and toys
-    Emptying and changing the water in bird baths, fountains, wading pools, rain barrels, and potted plant trays at least once a week
-    Draining or filling temporary pools of water with dirt
