Mosquito Control Tips from Giroud Tree and Lawn Include Organic Treatments and Clean-up of Mosquito Hot Spots in the Yard to Protect from Itchy Bites and Deadly Illnesses

Mosquito control is essential between now and October to protect family and pets from itchy bites and other dangerous illnesses like the Zika virus. Giroud Tree and Lawn provides Mosquito Control strategies homeowners can use to prevent mosquito bites and make the yard a "No Itch Zone."

"The first step in mosquito control is to know where mosquitoes thrive and hide," says Lou Giroud, President of Giroud Tree and Lawn and ISA Certified Arborist. "The most important control points are outdoor gathering and play spaces as well as Hot Spots like foliage, vegetation areas, mulch beds, buildings, porches, eaves, decks and patios."
To ensure child and pet safety, a 100% Organic Mosquito Control Program works best. Giroud's treatments are made from essential oils including Peppermint and Cedar oils which are a natural repellent. As an added benefit, these treatments also protect against ticks and nuisance pests like fleas, gnats and ants. Read this for more information.

Mosquito control requires more than just a spray here or there. Giroud recommends a comprehensive approach that starts with a professional inspection:

1.    Risk Assessment: Ask a professional to do a comprehensive inspection that includes identifying mosquito hot spots and developing a customized Mosquito Control Program.

2.    Best Timing for Treatment: Mosquito populations skyrocket as the weather gets warmer. Mosquito Control treatments should be done every 3 weeks especially during the warmest months from late Spring through early Fall. Additional treatments may be required for properties with unusually high mosquito populations.

3.    100% Organic Mosquito Control: To be successful, mosquitoes must be controlled where they hide which is typically any dark, moist environment or dense vegetation. For safety and effectiveness, a 100% Organic treatment should be used for:

4.    Remove or Empty Objects that Collect Water: Mosquitoes need water. The inspection will identify areas where water collects that must be removed, emptied frequently or treated. Recommendations may include: old tires, buckets, plastic covers, or any other container.

5.    Prune or Remove Overgrown Vegetation: Mosquitoes are shade lovers. Shady habitats should be minimized in two ways. First, cleaning up and/or clearing overgrown areas. Second, pruning tree branches and shrubs around the lawn edge to let in more sunlight.
