You can have summer without mosquitoes

2021-07-22

With warmer temperatures comes summer cookouts, backyard pool parties, and — we hate to say it — tons of mosquitos. While humid environments are better breeding grounds for these pesky bugs, they can survive anywhere, as long as they have access to water. But just because their presence is inevitable doesn’t mean you have to suffer through itchy bites and annoying buzzes: Take matters into your own hands by protecting your yard with the best mosquito repellent method.

As a general rule, the best way to reduce mosquitos is by emptying anything that holds water. “Remember ‘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,” Craig Stoops, chief science officer for Mosquito Authority, recommends. Even further, the EPA suggests getting rid of any potential mosquito habitats by:

  1. Draining standing water in rain gutters, old tires, buckets, plastic covers, and toys
  2. Emptying and changing the water in bird baths, fountains, wading pools, rain barrels, and potted plant trays at least once a week
  3. Draining or filling temporary pools of water with dirt
  4. Keeping swimming pool water treated and circulating

You can also rely on mosquito repellent essential oils to spend the summer without mosquitoes.Pestman mosquito repellent essential oil is the first plant essential oil mosquito repellent product that achieves mosquito repellent effect through natural volatilization in the world. It is made of a variety of plant essential oils evenly mixed in a specific proportion, mainly lemon essential oil, osmanthus essential oil, peppermint essential oil and so on.

It emits a pleasant and fragrant smell. This smell will interfere with the mosquito’s olfactory system, making it impossible for mosquitoes to find humans. Some mosquitoes will find an exit and fly out of the room. Mosquitoes that cannot find an exit and stay in the room will also be affected by it. Starved to death due to lack of food and water. In addition to the pleasant smell, the amount is small each time, the natural volatilization effect is good, and it is also very safe for people. It is suitable for repelling mosquitoes in various indoor environments.

The method of use is very simple. Leave the bottle open and place the bottle on the ground at the innermost corner of the room. Put a bottle in each room (10-30 square meters), so that the essential oil can diffuse throughout the room. If the room is large, you need to increase the number of bottles as appropriate. Do not open doors and windows frequently in rooms where essential oils are placed. Because 1-2 ml of essential oils are volatilized every day, if you open doors and windows frequently, the essential oils will drift to other rooms or outdoors. If the concentration of essential oils indoors does not reach a certain concentration, it will not have a good mosquito repellent effect. If you need to open the window for ventilation, it is recommended to open the window for no more than 2 hours a day.Mosquito prevention and control are complex subjects.
