Did you know? Mosquitoes & Your Yard
When tending to their lawns, homeowners
are advised to pay attention to areas that may feature standing water. According to the World Health Organization, standing water is a breeding ground for mosquitoes, which can breed in great numbers in pools of water. Mosquitoes are known to carry diseases like malaria, West Nile virus and Zika.
Furthermore, mosquitoes that bite pets can transmit heartworms, a serious problem if it goes undiscovered. Standing water also can be a haven for bacteria, mold and parasites that are dangerous to human health.
If standing, stagnant water is a problem
in your yard, remediation is necessary. Directing downspouts away from the house can remediate standing water.
Changing the grading of soil so that low spots are elevated is another way to reduce instances of standing water. This may be a project that requires the assistance of a drainage professional.
In addition, homeowners can remove standing water from empty fl ower pots, pool covers, bird baths, and more to reduce the likelihood that mosquitoes will appear on their properties.
