Don’t give mosquitoes a chance to start around your home. Dump and Drain any items that may be holding water.

Unused fountains containing standing water are a prime source for mosquito breeding. Check and clean them weekly!

Lucky bamboo can be a jackpot for mosquitoes. Don't let that standing water become a blood-sucker nursery room. Fill the pot all the way to the top with pebbles to stop mosquitoes from breeding there.
