In fact, these bugs have been found in large groups in parts of Virginia, where they\u2019ve been making it hard for residents to spend time outdoors and enjoy the warm weather. Some of them have even gone after residents as they get out of their cars and head inside.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mosquito Prevention<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s not much you can do to control humidity levels outdoors, but you can take steps to lower your risk of having large mosquito populations around. One of the best ways to do so is by making sure you don\u2019t have standing water on your property, such as in bird baths and puddles. This gives these bugs a place to lay their eggs, resulting in much larger mosquito populations. You should also use bug spray to avoid being bitten.<\/p>\n<p>If you have a mosquito problem on your property, please don\u2019t hesitate to contact <a href=\"http:\/\/www.allisonpest.com\/contact-us.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Allison Pest Control<\/a>. Our NJ pest control services can get rid of these biting bugs from your yard, so you can enjoy your summer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>High humidity levels are ideal for breeding mosquito populations.
