Here are some tips from Pest Control Frisco Tx to help protect your family from mosquitoes:
- Eliminate standing water around your home where mosquitoes breed. Empty water from flower pots, gutters, pet bowls, discarded tires, etc.
- Use insect repellent containing DEET, picaridin, IR3535, or oil of lemon eucalyptus when going outside. Always follow product instructions.
- Wear long sleeves and pants when outdoors, especially at dawn and dusk when mosquitoes are most active.
