As the rains begins, its important to manage water flow. Since mosquitoes eggs do not hatch unless they are in water, we can manage standing water by the following activities;

Remove old tires, buckets, cans, jars, broken toys, and other water-catching devices. Clean out ant receptacle holding stagnant water; and place tight covers over drums cisterns, cesspools, septic tanks, barrels, and tubs where water is stored.
Never over- apply water to lawn and garden, drain out tree holes; and drain or fill with sand any stagnant water pools, puddles, ditches, or swampy areas.
Clear organic matter from your gutter to enable free flow.
Inspect water in plant containers, and water-holding stumps; keep grass mowed around bodies of water and ponds.
