How to Keep Mosquitos and Flies Away from Garden Parties

How to Keep Mosquitos and Flies Away from Garden Parties

Mosquitos and flies can ruin a garden party, but there are a few things you can do to keep them away. Here are a few tips from the Top10 Gardener Podcast:

  • Choose the right location for your party. Avoid areas with standing water, as this is where mosquitoes breed. If you must have your party in an area with standing water, try to eliminate as much of it as possible.
  • Use fans. #Mosquitos and flies are weak flyers, so fans can help to keep them away. Place fans around the perimeter of your party area and in any areas where people are congregating.
  • Plant mosquito-repelling plants. Certain plants, such as citronella, lavender, and rosemary, emit aromas that repel mosquitoes and flies. Plant these plants around your party area to create a natural barrier against pests.
  • Use mosquito repellent. There are a variety of mosquito repellents available, including sprays, lotions, and candles. Choose a repellent that is appropriate for the age and health of your guests.
  • Encourage your guests to wear long sleeves and pants. This will help to protect them from mosquito bites.

Here are a few additional tips from Wattersgardencenter.com:

  • Serve food and drinks in covered containers. This will help to prevent #flies from landing on the food and drink.
  • Clean up spills immediately. Don't let food and drink sit out for too long, as this will attract flies.
  • Use citronella candles or torches. These can help to repel mosquitoes and flies.

By following these tips, you can create a mosquito- and fly-free environment for your next garden party.
