Have you been looking for a way to enjoy your outdoor space without the worry of pesky mosquitoes? We have the perfect solution for you! Mosquitoes can be a nuisance, no matter where you live (especially the south!). They not only create an annoying buzz, but they can also carry diseases and cause itchy bites that can last for days. Therefore, it is important to take the necessary steps to keep your home free of mosquitoes. Here are some DIY solutions that you can use to get rid of mosquitoes in your home.
1. Eliminate Standing Water
Mosquitoes need standing water in order to lay their eggs and reproduce. So, one of the most effective ways to reduce mosquito populations is to eliminate standing water around your home. If you have any containers such as buckets or flowerpots with standing water, empty them out regularly and keep them away from your house.
Additionally, check for any areas of your yard that may be prone to flooding after a heavy rainstorm or when snow melts; these areas should be drained or filled in order to prevent mosquitoes from breeding there.
2. Install a Mosquito Netting System
Another way to protect your home from mosquitoes is by installing a mosquito netting system around exterior doors and windows. These systems use fine mesh screens that prevent mosquitoes from entering your home while still allowing air circulation.
The downside to mosquito netting systems is that screens need to be properly installed and maintained, as any gaps could allow mosquitoes inside.
3. Add Natural Repellents
In addition to eliminating standing water and installing mosquito netting systems, you can also add natural repellents around your home in order to discourage mosquitoes from entering it.
Citronella candles and plants such as lavender and marigolds are known for their ability to repel insects naturally; planting these near windows or doors can help keep mosquitoes away.
Additionally, you can use Essential oils as they work the same if not better than your common spray mosquito repellant. Try putting essential oils near doorways and windowsills to keep them from coming indoors. The great thing about essential oils is you can even put it on your skin!
4. Consider installing a DIY mosquito misting system
A mosquito misting system is a great way to protect your outdoor areas from mosquitoes, as well as other annoying insects. The system uses an automated spraying mechanism to disperse an insecticide in the form of mist into your outdoor areas, thereby reducing mosquito populations and providing long-term protection against them.
In addition to protection from mosquitoes, a mosquito misting system can also provide control against other insects such as ticks, fleas and flies. Moreover, the system is designed to be discreet and effective, working silently and without leaving any residue or unpleasant smells. As such, it is a safe but effective way to keep your outdoor spaces free of mosquitoes.

Works Better
Our patented system uses state-of-the-art technology which allows you to monitor low water levels, record a history of spray times, and detect leaks. The system automatically shuts off when an issue is detected and reduces chemical usage when the temperature is below 50 degrees. Your machine delivers the freshest possible product because the insecticide solution is mixed on-demand. The system can also spray water only (during testing), which reduces environmental impact. Our system is engineered to mix any chemical with water in any dilution rate and can be calibrated so when new products are developed, our system is ready to use immediately without any rebuilding of the mechanisms.
Looks Better
The MosquitoMax™ tankless system is 75% smaller than barrel systems. It is also wall-mounted (above-ground), which protects the machine in the event of a flood. It can also be painted to match your home’s exterior.
