How to Get Rid of Mosquitoes on House Plants

Mosquitoes are one of summer’s biggest annoyances. They frequently live outside in tall grass and damp locations. However, mosquitoes are eager to feed and will follow a food source indoors. Once inside, they will stay if they find desirable living conditions. Keep mosquitoes away from your plants by removing any enticing habitat.

  Allow plants to dry out slightly between watering. The top 1 to 2 inches of soil should feel dry to the touch before you water again.

  Remove any excess water from the tray under the plant’s pot. Still water is breeding ground for mosquitoes.

  Move any water sources that are near the plant, such as pet water bowls or indoor fountains.
- 4
  Close all the windows and doors to your house. Install screens if you don’t have them. Only keep doors and windows open if they have screens.
