5 Chemical Free Ways to Keep Bugs at Bay
It’s the time of the year you might feel something bugging you…buzzing around your ear…crawling up your wall. As if this year's historic double brood "cicada-apocalypse" weren't enough, the annual onslaught of mosquitos and other flying pests can wreak havoc on outdoor activities. Here are five effective ways to keep pesky flying insects from spoiling the good times for you and your guests. Best of all, you won’t need to spray your yard or your friends with chemical bug repellants.
1. The One-Acre Natural-Attractant Trap
The One-Acre Natural-Attractant Trap lures and kills mosquitoes in yards up to one acre without harmful chemicals. The trap mimics the natural conditions of human habitation by emitting heat, odorless carbon dioxide (the same gas people expel during respiration) and light to lure mosquitoes. When mosquitoes are drawn inside, they die of dehydration.
2. The Pest Thwarting Elevated Garden
Want to take your gardening to the next level? The Pest Thwarting Elevated Garden raises plants beyond the reach of ravenous ground-based marauders to a height that also allows one to tend to crops without bending or kneeling. An optional greenhouse cover combines heat-trapping polyethylene with a micro mesh layer that prevents flying insects from damaging your plants while still letting them breathe.
3. The Solar Walkway Insect Zappers.
Creating a bug-free zone anywhere in your yard without chemicals, The Solar Walkway Insect Zappers help clear pesky bugs wherever they congregate. They simply stake into the ground and harness the sun’s energy to efficiently eliminate mosquitoes, flies, and other insects with a 300-volt charge. The touch of a button converts the zappers to accent lights that provide gentle illumination along a pathway.
Using the same technology but covering a larger area, The Cordless Bug Zapper eliminates biting insects without requiring proximity to a power outlet. Its six UV bulbs turn on automatically at dusk and lure mosquitoes, flies, and other insects within a 1/2-acre radius to eliminate them instantly with a 750-volt electric charge. Five solar panels on top of the unit gather enough sunlight to provide power for up to eight hours.
5. The Cicada, Mosquito, And Insect Blocking Canopy.
For those who would just as soon avoid all contact with winged interlopers, The Cicada, Mosquito, And Insect Blocking Canopy provides a haven from all flying insects day or night. This enclosure fits over a patio table’s umbrella to provide a protective barrier that keeps out cicadas and locusts, mosquitos and other biting insects, pesky yellow jackets, and any other uninvited winged guests. The sheer-like 100% polyester netting is not only too small for pests to penetrate but also treated with EPA-registered permethrin to repel mosquitos. A zippered flap provides easy entry and exit for humans.
In the battle against bugs, it isn't necessary to resort to chemical warfare. With our proven problem solvers, you can say goodbye to buzzing and crawling nuisances, and enjoy your outdoor spaces to the fullest.
