Remove all standing water- old tires, pots, etc. Wear long sleeves and pants when you mow- something lightweight of course. Spray yourself with bug spray.Helpful Reply -

mosquito babies are born in water.....thus the need to dump it out. you don't want them hatching. you can treat soggy areas and potted plants w/ water tray with a product called mosquito bits. there are also "Dunks" from the same company to treat water barrels. they do work.Helpful Reply -
