I need a season-long eco-friendly mosquito control solution for my teaching garden. Is vinegar the answer?
While vinegar can work to repel some pests in your vegetable garden, it’s not an ideal solution for mosquitoes. Additionally, vinegar will not provide highly effective results. Nor is it a long-term solution for keeping bugs off vegetable plants. So, what is an eco-friendly mosquito option for vegetable plants? Mosquito Squad of Fort Worth has the answer.

Mosquito Squad is pleased to offer a truly effective, eco-friendly mosquito and pest control solution that is ideal for vegetable plants, cutting gardens, herb gardens, and more.

In fact, you can expect a drastic reduction in mosquitoes and other pests for up to 21 days before the next treatment is due.
Is Plant-Based Mosquito and Pest Control Safe for Fruit Trees?
Bugs are attracted to a variety of trees, including oak and maple trees. They are also wild about fruit trees, and having any of them in your yard is like a tasty beacon for pests. Mosquito Squad’s plant-based mosquito control is absolutely an ideal pest solution for fighting bugs in your yard and that have invaded your trees.
