Sick and tired of pesky mosquitos? Try this trick!!

Here where I live the mosquitos are viscous in the spring! The baby mosquitoes are the absolute worst though. They are so tiny and fly so fast it is almost impossible to catch them! After scouring the internet and trying all the tricks we found one that actually, truly works.

Like chicken eggs, mosquito eggs must incubate. Mother mosquitoes lay their eggs in puddles underneath the water. Then, they hatch and come out of the water and next thing you know you're all chewed up my these stupid bugs who only have a lifespan of 6 weeks!! If you put dish soap, bleach or shampoo it creates a film on the top of the puddle and prevents the baby mosquitoes from escaping their incubater so to speak. Be sure to stir whatever you put in the puddle to make sure you achieve full coverage. Then, enjoy a mostly mosquito free envirement!
*Note*. It only takes a few drops of product per puddle. Also, consider where you are using these products. You may not want to use them in your garden space since after time it will pollute your ground.

There are some spelling and grammar issues with this article, and I would definitely recommend adding a warning about where/how you use these techniques. Adding these types of product to pools of standing water where pets and other wildlife can get into them could be dangerous or fatal.

Got it! Thank you😁
I'm all for anything to kill those pesky buggers!

I think a "puddle" needs to be explained though as putting bleach in a puddle where frogs, chickens, etc., are wouldn't be healthy. I presume you're talking about a puddle in a driveway after a rain?

I also agree, cite some sources for your information.

Got it! Yes I meant puddles from the rain in the driveway or yard. Thank you for the review!😁
Thanks for writing the article!

The little mosquitos in the spring are a different type from the big ones later. There are quite a few different breeds that hatch in a year.

Running the article through spell check would make it easier to read.

Adding come citations to sourced would help readers get more information too.
