Domestic mosquitoes prefer to lay their eggs in containers.
When these containers are flooded with water either through rain or irrigation, the eggs hatch and in a few days adult mosquitoes emerge hungry for a blood meal. These mosquitoes are primary daytime biters and can be quite a nuisance to the people unknowingly breeding them and their neighbors. People should be aware that any outdoor container that s capable of holding water for several days is fare game for these mosquitoes to lay their eggs. And it doesn t take much water for them to get started. Remove old tires or drill holes in those used for playground equipment to allow them to drain.
