HOW TO RID YOUR YARD OF MOSQUITOES WITHOUT HARMING POLLINATORS

A Mosquito Bucket is designed to lure and then kill mosquito larvae

with MOSQUITO DUNKS, which contain Bacillus thuringiensis

israelensis. Guided by the instructions, you place grass clippings and

dead leaves in a bucket of water to ferment until you see mosquito

larvae, which for me took about 4-5 days. At that point, place one dunk

in the bucket; each dunk lasts about one month. Prevent creatures

from falling into the bucket and drowning by covering it with a screen

and a weight, which holds the screen in place. I keep my bucket in the

corner of the yard near the compost bins. It is important to make

certain that the mosquito bucket is the only source of water. I also

place dunks in my rain barrels and bird baths. Mosquito Dunks are

available locally at your favorite hardware or garden store and online. I

placed a Mosquito Bucket in my yard in Lafayette just over a year ago

and have found it to be effective.
