Hi

Interesting you should ask about this. We have a really bad Mosquito problem in our house. They come and fog the village once every couple of years (or basically when someone gets Dengue).

I hired a company to come last weekend and Fog our house (inside and outside) and yard (I wanted to do the surrounding houses but they wouldnt agree even though I was paying)...it had an impact for about 36 hours.....but now it is totally back to what it was before.

Its a shame because when they fogged the entire housing village about 18 months ago it really cleared up the mosquitos for a few months.

Speaking as an ex pest managment proffesional,deny them breeding sites,ie; tubs of water,even a tea cup,then you will reap the benifits.

If you have standing water around your house they'll breed like crazy, try putting some pots around your house with guppy in. Keep your grass down and any trees near your house chop them down. I have a few ponds full of fish and 5 pots with guppy in, very rare I get bit now. If I go over to the inlaws wich is just down the road with trees all around and standing water around its infested.

why chop trees down

[Toknarok]

Within 50 meters of my house there are two plots where the owners grow sugar cane. In the rain season the mozzies breed in the water that accumulates where the leaves join the stem of the plant. There is therefore absolutely nothing I can do about the problem except wear appropriate clothing and repellant whilst outside and try to keep the house sealed up. I don't think my neighbours would appreciate me cutting down their sugar cane...

Not much you can do when there is houses all around you,catch the ones you can.

why chop trees down

When we first bought our land it had a few trees on too near the house we were building so they needed chopping down. I climbed up to chop some of the upper branches of and got savaged by mozzies I decided to cut all the trees down and now no mozzie problem.
