Tired of mosquitoes crashing your backyard hangouts? Let’s work together to reduce mosquito breeding spots in our yards! 🌿🚫🦟

Here’s what YOU can do:
✔️ Dump standing water from flower pots, birdbaths, and gutters.
✔️ Clear out clogged drains and gutters.
✔️ Keep your grass short and bushes trimmed.
✔️ Make sure tarps and pool covers are tightly stretched to avoid pooling water.

Protect your home and your neighborhood from these pesky bugs.
