VERY SHORT ANSWER TYPE
List any three effective methods for controlling mosquitoes

Answer 1

1. Reducing Breeding Areas:- Mosquitoes lay their eggs in stagnant water, so the first step to reducing the number of mosquitoes on your property is to eliminate as much stagnant water from your property as possible. 2. Making Your Yard Inhospitable to Mosquitoes:- In addition to treating standing water with larvicide, you can also introduce species that like to feed on mosquito larvae. Try stocking ponds with top feeding predacious minnows. 3. Protecting Yourself- If possible, try not to be outdoors at dawn and dusk, when many species of mosquitoes are most active. Keep in mind that mosquitoes are also most active when the weather is warm and humid.
