Nothing ruins a relaxing Florida evening faster than a swarm of mosquitoes. If you live on the Treasure Coast—from Port St. Lucie to Vero Beach and Hobe Sound—you already know how relentless mosquitoes can be in the summer. Not only are they annoying, but they can also carry dangerous diseases such as West Nile virus, Zika, and dengue.

The good news? There are effective ways to keep mosquitoes away from your Florida yard.

⚠️ Why Mosquitoes Are Such a Problem in Florida

Florida’s hot, humid climate 🌴 creates the perfect breeding ground for mosquitoes. They only need a tiny bit of standing water to reproduce, which means even flowerpot saucers or clogged gutters can fuel an infestation.

On the Treasure Coast, heavy rainfall, canals, and lush landscaping add even more mosquito habitats.

🏡 Simple Steps Homeowners Can Take

You can reduce mosquito populations around your home by following these tips:

  1. Eliminate Standing Water 💧 – Empty buckets, birdbaths, kiddie pools, and clogged gutters.

  2. Maintain Landscaping 🌿 – Trim shrubs and keep grass short to reduce resting spots.

  3. Use Outdoor Fans 💨 – Mosquitoes are weak fliers and avoid breezy areas.

  4. Add Mosquito-Repelling Plants 🌱 – Citronella, lemongrass, and lavender may help deter them.

  5. Wear Protection 🧴 – Use EPA-approved repellents when spending time outdoors.
