Do you know that dragonflies can protect you from mosquitoes? You don’t even need to use chemicals. Dragonflies eat mosquitoes, and that’s the solution to your problem. Keep them in your garden, and you will never ever have to deal with mosquitoes again.
Dragonflies may look scary, but they can only hurt mosquitoes. Dragonfly larvae feed on mosquito larvae, and adult dragonflies feed on adult mosquitoes. These insects like comfortable and safe environments. That’s why ponds are perfect for them.
Bring those dragonflies in your yard!
1. Install a pond
Dragonflies spend most of their life under water. Your pond should be around fifteen feet in diameter and a couple of feet deep. Place a few rocks at the edge to give the dragonflies a place to rest and relax. If you can’t dig a hole, use a small pool.
2. Use water plants
Water lilies are a perfect addition for your pond. Dragonflies lay their eggs on the plants. They spend most of their life under water, so make sure you plant Gluceria Maxima. The plant is perfect for dragonflies, and they can climb on it.
3. Use vitamin B1
Vitamin B1 is the only thing that can keep mosquitoes away. It repels the nasty insects as it masks the natural odors that mosquitoes like. Take spirulina every day to get enough vitamin B1. You need a tablespoon every day to get 300mg.
