NATURAL MOSQUITO CONTROL

There is nothing quite like the long, hot days of summer. The desire to be outdoors can be overwhelming, in spite of the dangers and risks associated with mosquito bites. Gone are the days when a mosquito bite meant nothing more than an annoying itch and a small, temporary bump. These days, there are serious and potentially deadly diseases associated with these small bites, such as West Nile Virus. A good repellent spray can be effective, but have you ever read one of those labels? The list of chemicals and toxins can be more scary than the insect itself! Isn't it about time that we had a more natural mosquito control method at our disposal?

The good news is that we do. Today there are a variety of good, non-chemical methods of natural mosquito control. All we have to do is find them. From traps to biological enemies, we have a whole assortment of natural mosquito control options at our fingertips. Let's take a look at what these options are, and how they work:

First, let us look at natural mosquito traps. A trap is a device which lures and contains an unwanted nuisance for death or disposal. There are several styles of traps. The one which I would like to highlight is a thermo-CO2 device. This trap uses heat and Carbon Dioxide to lure the pests into the trap where they are snagged in a fine net or a sticky trap. These traps are limited to a specific area, but can be quite effective. Next, we can use herbal lawn sprays.

These are solutions derived from natural plants tha help to repel mosquitoesfrom your yard when sprayed over your lawn with the use of a garden hose. This treatment is very safe and effective, but lasts for a period of a few months before needing to be reapplied. Then, there is bio control. That's right, one of the most technologically advanced methods of natural mosquito control is the employment of biological agents to curb the growth and multiplication of mosquito colonies by destroying their larval communities.

There are small bacteria that mosquio larvae will eat. After they eat these larvae, the bacteria attack the digestive systems of the mosquito larvae killing them quickly. Entire colonies can be wiped out in a single hour. Use any of these treatments where there is standing water or continuously moist soil.
