As you may recently have read or viewed on local news, a Florence, SC resident has contracted West Nile Virus after being bitten by a mosquito as reported by WMBF News.

These are a few ways to reduce the mosquito population around your home.

  1. Empty or get rid of containers, old tires, etc. that can hold stagnating water
  2. Eliminate standing water in saucers under potted plants
  3. Empty and wash birdbaths weekly
  4. Keep your roof gutters free of leaves and other debris
  5. Examine flat roofs after rains to be sure no water remains on them
  6. Keep screens on doors and windows in good repair
  7. If you use barrels/containers to collect rainwater for watering gardens, cover them with screening to keep out debris and mosquitoes. Keep the screens clear of debris as well
  8. Store boats, canoes and other objects so that they do not collect rainwater
  9. Cover or drain unused swimming pools. If you cover them with a tarp, make sure you remove leaves and other debris that collect on the surface
  10. Correct drainage problems in your yard that allow rainwater to pool in low lying areas

YOU MAY BE SURPRISED HOW AFFORDABLE PROFESSIONAL MOSQUITO REDUCTION ACTUALLY IS.
