After the Rain, Dump and Drain
Rain, rain, dump 'n drain; Stay bite-free another day...
While rain may naturally water your plants, it also collects in the oddest places. Forgotten rainwater becomes stagnant water that will create mosquitoes.
Remember to:
Tip out stagnant water after it rains.
Toss out unused containers from your yard.
Protect yourself with repellent when outdoors.
The best time to mosquito-proof your home is before and after it rains. Your actions now will destroy the mosquito eggs that are growing in your yard and you can send those pesky mosquitoes packing!
