Natural Mosquito Control

Mosquitoes are a pest that we would all like to get rid of and unfortunately we can’t just make them disappear. It is best to naturally keep them away. Natural mosquito repellant is the best and safest are ones derived from plant based oils such as eucalyptus, citronella, peppermint, geranium, cedar and lemon grass. Not only are these plant oils used in lotions, sprays or creams they are also good plants to have around your house to help deter mosquitoes.
One of the best ways to repel mosquitoes is to not attract them in the first place. Follow these few tips to rid yourself of mosquitoes:  Eliminate any free standing water, such as bird baths or any water that stays more than 1 day after a rain. Try also to keep a good circulation of air around your house. Keep you bushes trimmed and trim your larger trees about 10 feet off the ground. Also if you have a pool keeps the chemicals at appropriate levels.
