Top Reasons Why Natural Bucks County PA Mosquito Control Methods Help Keep Your Home Bite Free

By Carla Bergoba


Mosquitoes like nothing better than to find a pool of standing water for breeding. Their larvae grow best in stagnant murky water, making it difficult to see their growing young. But keeping the spread of West Nile Virus contained is of primary importance to environmental agencies and they have developed excellent natural ways to do it.

There are small pellets of natural bacteria which eats growing young larvae. Available for sale in many garden supply stores, these are added to stagnant water in small amounts. It is simple to drop in a few and let them do their work. But, should there be any questions, contact a Bucks County PA mosquito control official to get accurate professional service.

In the public spaces, where large bodies of water are part of the scenery, mosquito fish may be added to keep decorate fountains and other features clean. These are a successful aquatic addition because they eat young larvae. Trained employees know when and where these are best used, as they are considered a life long solution. They are more expensive than other methods.

In home water features, ornamental species can be added to eat larvae and add beauty. Properties with fountains, wishing wells, waterfalls and similar additions do best when they are aerated and clean. Remove containers which tend to collect rain and trash old flower pots, barrels, and in particular, discarded tires, which are prime spots for breeders.

Outdoor bite-free spaces result from regular use of biological barrier spray. Made from natural plant sources, it is non-toxic. This advantageous option completely covers your landscape.

Keeping biting insects at bay is best achieved using a three stage process. Clearing any stagnant pools from property and treating with natural methods will eliminate young larvae. Adding barrier sprays will kill flying adults, and using timed perimeter sprays add extra protection in areas where people will gather. A good service plan is scheduled about every four weeks. This interrupts the mosquito life cycle and keeps yards bite free. Add additional services when necessary.
