Asian Tiger Mosquito |
Mike Waldvogel, NC Cooperative Extension Specialist for structural and residential pests shares this advice for controlling mosquitos:
Many areas of
the state saw significant rainfall last week and that also
means they will see a rise in mosquito activity particularly by
the Asian tiger mosquito which takes advantage of those small
and often inconspicuous sites around your property that fill
with storm water and become prime mosquito breeding sites.
Before you start planning a chemical assault on your yard as the
solution to mosquito problems, you need to start with a
simpler and more long-term approach . . . . . learn more by reading the rest of the article, posted here on the Pender Extension website: http://pender.ces.ncsu.edu/2012/07/wet-weather-brings-mosquitos/
