Kill Mosquitoes at the Source: A Yard Checklist

Barrier sprays help, but 80% of mosquito control is source reduction. Here's a 10-minute Saturday routine.

A single bottle cap of standing water can breed hundreds of mosquitoes. Every Saturday, walk your yard and dump anything holding water: plant saucers, bromeliads, tarps, buckets, kids' toys, wheelbarrows and clogged gutters.

Check screens for tears. Change birdbath water twice a week. Store trash cans upside down when empty. If you have a pool that's been off for a while, treat it with Mosquito Bits.

Combine that with a monthly barrier spray and you'll cut your mosquito population by 90%+. Your patio becomes usable again — even at dusk.
