Keeping Pests Out of Your Fourth of July Party

With summer not far away, a lot of people are thinking of ways to host an unforgettable Fourth of July party that their guests will love. If you can relate to them, you are probably planning to have great food, refreshing drinks and fun games that everyone can enjoy. Throwing an impressive Fourth of July party is a nice way to get people together, but you will need to watch out for pests and the issues they cause. Bees, mosquitoes and ants are just a few of the pests that might crash your party and spoil the fun if you are not careful.

Mosquitoes

Sharing meals and games with people close to you is a wonderful way to spend your Fourth of July, and the evening will conclude with a spectacular firework show. When the sun starts to set, mosquitoes will come out of their hiding spots to search for viable hosts, and you and your guests are likely targets. Before you host the event, check for and remove any standing bodies of water near your yard. Also, keep mosquito repellent on hand if you would like your guests to be comfortable and bite free.

Bees and Wasps

Since they can give painful stings, you don’t want bees and wasps to join your Fourth of July party this year. You can check for nests before your party and spray them with an insecticide, but you might want to use a nontoxic product that won’t harm your guests. Hanging brown paper bags around your yard will discourage wasps from getting close, but you can also make traps to keep bees and other stinging insects at bay.

Ants

When ants detect that you are having a cookout, they will want to join you so that they can get a fresh meal. Inability to manage ants during your party can make it hard for your guests to have a good time, and you won’t want to make that mistake. If you want ants to evade your yard, spray vinegar around your property and near your party. Since they won’t like the smell, ants will make an effort to avoid your event.
