First Florida Termite and Pest Control

Archive for October 11th, 2016

With the rain that we have been getting make sure to empty any extra standing water around the outside of your home. Mosquitoes are not only bothersome; they carry diseases (Zika Virus, etc.). Reducing them around your home should be a priority.
First check around your property for standing water in containers. Containers include: Trash cans, buckets, and empty planters. Water is required for the first stage (larva) of the mosquito’s life. If you have a boat; make sure the bow is higher than the stern so water will drain out. Don’t be out at dusk or dawn because then the mosquitos will stay there.
