When mosquitoes invade your yard, the bright sunny weather can quickly turn dim, and with the increase in rain, the problem will only get worse.
Why does water attract mosquitoes? Because that’s where they lay their eggs.
Many think that since they don’t have a pool or bird bath, these blood sucking insects will leave their yard alone. But they fail to realize that they can reproduce in the most unconventional of places.
For instance, oftentimes mosquitoes will find standing water in trashcans, hoses and other places you may not have thought about. Your home could be a breeding ground for them and you wouldn’t even know it.
Mosquitoes Cause Serious Problems
Mosquitoes cause more human suffering than any other organism. Just think about all the diseases these troublesome little pests carry. From Malaria to West Nile Virus and Chikungunya, keeping these bugs at bay is more than about not being itchy.
In 2013, doctors diagnosed four human cases of West Nile Virus in Davidson County alone. Scientists have yet to identify any mosquitoes with the virus this year, but they expect that to change as the rain continues to increase.
