Yes, there are probably several unexpected mosquito breeding areas around your property. Besides emptying the obvious flower pots, bird baths and old tires of water, make sure to clean gutters and downspouts regularly or cover with mesh to prevent leaves and debris from collecting and holding water. Children’s toys, swings, slides and playgrounds can have small crevices where water can collect. A few other odd places you may not have considered: your car, landscape statues, rain gauge, garden hoses and even large plant leaves. If a full plastic garbage bag sits in the rain, it can develop a small pocket where water can collect. Remember, it only takes about a cup of water for mosquitoes to breed. And just because your yard may be free of standing water, does not mean your neighbor’s yard is too.
