Tips for Preventing Mosquito Bites

• Dump out standing water near your home, as mosquitos can breed in just 14 days using a small amount of water (in a flower pot, gutter, bird bath, etc.). Adding mosquito-eating fish to water sources also helps.
• Keep mosquitos outside using a combination of screens, AC, and mosquito nets.
• Use mosquito repellent. The most effective ones contain DEET insecticide, which is safe when used as directed (for pregnant women, nursing women, and babies over 2 months).
• Wear light-colored clothing outdoors. Mosquitos are attracted to colors like black, deep blue, and red. Additionally, thicker fabrics and loose-fitting clothing are more protective than tight clothing.
• Stay indoors during dawn and dusk, which is when mosquitos feed.

Rodents reproduce rapidly and are attracted to sources of food in your home. Crumbs, trash, and dry goods like grain/cereal are popular sources of infestation. Keep these items sealed to avoid contamination. Additionally, fruits and vegetables should be stored and disposed of properly.

Rodents also like cardboard, as it is prime material for chewing and nesting. Seal openings in your cardboard to prevent entry and reentry. Getting rid of rodents that are already in your home or place of business is tricky. Luckily, Synergy Pest Management provides completely unique treatment programs that assess, treat, and maintain the issue.
