Mosquito Prevention Tips for White Plains Residents

There are several simple lawn maintenance steps you can take throughout the year to keep mosquito populations down. Here’s a quick look at a few of these easy tasks and how they contribute to lower mosquito numbers in the long run:

Clean Out Blocked Gutters

When the gutters on your house or garage become clogged with leaves and other debris, it can lead to the accumulation of water. Although the collection of water in blocked gutters generally isn’t very much in terms of volume, it is often enough for mosquitoes to establish breeding grounds. Clearing out the gutters on your property, particularly after rainfall, is a great way to keep mosquito populations low over time.

Change Outdoor Light Bulbs

Mosquitoes are drawn to certain types of light more strongly than to others, which is where “bug bulbs” come in. By switching out your standard outdoor light bulbs for these yellow-tinted, pest-specific bulbs, you’ll be able to reduce insect activity in your yard without much work.

Remove Standing Water Sources

Standing water leads to mosquito infestations. Addressing puddles, trash can lids, and lawn toys after rainfall minimizes standing water sources and can lead to significantly lower mosquito populations over time.
