How to keep mosquitoes away from your front door
Keep grass and weeds small
Mosquitoes thrive in dense cover provided by tall grasses and weeds or grown shrubs. If you are cutting and keeping the grass and landscaping near your home, mosquitoes cannot hide in these areas where you have major access to your home.
Get rid of standing water
This tip applies to your entire yard, but it is very important to have it near your doors. If the mosquitoes find standing water near your entrance, they will lay eggs and the population will congregate there, causing them to enter. Make sure the water in the tires, recycling containers, trash cans, roof gutters, flower pots, pet dishes, lawn jewelry, children's toys, bottles, barrels or buckets are empty.
Install screens
Another good way to keep mosquitoes out is to install high-quality screens on your doors. If you do not want to permanently install the screen professionally, you can choose the magnet. These screens are easy to install and work without using tools. Regardless of what kind of screen you are on, check the mesh frequently to make sure there are no holes or holes.
Use a mosquito lamp
Chances are, your front door or back door has a light next to it. This light attracts mosquitoes and all sorts of other insects, which means all of them buzzing around your door, ready to move in when you open it. To solve this problem, you can try to put a mosquito lamp on your front porch, similar to a Citronella candle, which will spread the repellent into the air, keeping the mosquitoes away.
Add mosquito repellent plants
You can rely on nature to help keep mosquitoes out of your door - or your entire yard. Some plants, such as citronella grass, rosemary, lavender and fragrant geranium, have an undesirable odor for mosquitoes.
Apply Barrier Spray
If you are unable to keep mosquitoes near your door, apply barrier spray on your property. This will keep the population at bay and make you hang out at your house. Spray the door completely inside and out. When mosquitoes come around the door and spray, they certainly won't bother you. Remember to spray every day so you are guaranteed to get it all.
