MOsquitoes And Rain - how to prevent mosquitoes in your yard after rainfall near chicago

Mosquitoes are actually not attracted to the rainfall, but rather what the rain leaves behind. Mosquitoes prefer to lay their eggs on or near standing water. After rain, mosquitoes have wet areas on vegetation, bird feeders, and planters in your yard for their eggs to survive and hatch. During the spring and summer months, you will probably notice even more of these pesky mosquitoes in your yard after it rains. This is because the wet surfaces attract mosquitoes to lay their eggs. The wet weather conditions will only increase opportunities for these pesky insects to become a true nuisance. 
If you are living near Chicago in suburbs like Schaumburg, Elk Grove, Barrington, and Palatine, you have seen firsthand this season what wet weather does to attract mosquitoes and other pesky insects in your yard...a true buzz kill for any outdoor summer fun! 

Preventative Measures You Can Take to Fend Off Mosquitoes in Your Yard After Rainfall 
Make your yard less hospitable for mosquitoes 


Since mosquitoes lay their eggs on standing water and have a quick reproductive cycle, populations of mosquitoes will hang around their breeding grounds, quickly increasing their numbers. Be sure to pour out any still water that has collected in your yard. Look for it all over your yard, including:

• Gutters
• Buckets
• Playsets
• Planters
• Cover your pools
