We will do an initial application of the mosquito repellent at the beginning to mid of April (to catch and kill any developing larva), dependent on the weather and then the repellent will be automatically reapplied every 21 to 28 days.

We first spray the property perimeter, then the lawn perimeter and finally around the house. As we visit the property we will also patrol for any standing water sources and remove them or disturb them.

Our repellent provider: Southland Organics, an All-Natural insecticide without any harmful chemicals.

Recommended tips for preventing mosquitos on your property:

• Hang bird and bat houses outside
• Regular mowing, brush clearing since mosquitos like to hide in tall, lush grasses
• Experiment with mosquito repelling plants such as lavender, mint, catmint, rosemary, citronella grass, chives, basil, etc.
