It’s early Saturday evening.
You’re craving some breeze, a little Vitamin D, hearing the leaves in the trees, playing fetch with your pup. Maybe you’ll sit outside and read a chapter of that book finally. Who knows? The night is young!
With bright spirits and your favorite iced tea, you open your back door and BAM! Your blissful intentions are screeched to a halt with the annoying, pesky, gross MOSQUITOES that bite your ankles and mess up your vision. Is it foggy outside or is that a mosquito in your eye?
Sound painfully familiar?
This was me several months ago, before I began a consistent routine that I’m about to give you the inside scoop on… because sharing is caring, Wonder Pack.
Here’s the thing. Mosquitoes are relentless little creatures. No one has ever claimed they’re “easy” to get rid of, which is why you need a plan of attack. And even better: a tried and true plan of attack chock-full of realistic steps and doable tips:
Step 1: Eliminate the things mosquitoes LOVE like
- Standing water
- Leafy debris
- Have a bird bath? Replace its water every few days.
- Have a pool or pond? Keep the water clean, treated, and filtered.
Step 2: Keep your grass cut short
Mosquitoes love super-tall grass and unkept landscaping. So don’t give it to them! Make sure to keep landscaping areas as manicured as possible. Not into landscaping? Maybe now’s the time to consider xeriscaping.
Step 3: Treat your yard with Wondercide
Don’t take my word for it. Our mosquito yard sprays underwent third-party lab testing that proved their effectiveness at killing mosquitoes. In fact, Wondercide was proven to exceed the same effectiveness standards as conventional sprays. And, when used as directed, Wondercide is safe around loved ones.
To get control of your mosquito issue, apply as directed and repeat every few days if needed. Once the mosquitoes are under control, apply as often as needed. Typically, applying every three or four weeks will do the trick. The great thing about Wondercide yard sprays is that you can use them as often or as little as needed to get results.
Be sure to cover your yard fully each time and ALL outdoor areas (decks, porches, patios, fences, outdoor furniture, trees, plants, gardens, bushes). The spray also works great as an outdoor tick spray and a yard flea spray.
