This little bucket hack can help stop mosquitoes before they even hatch. Mosquitoes were making our backyard miserable at night, so last year I finally tried the mosquito dunk bucket hack- it worked so good I made three more this year! I used a 5 gallon bucket with a lid, drilled several holes in the top to help keep kids and pets out, then added water, yard clippings, and a mosquito dunk. Mosquitoes are drawn to the bucket to lay eggs, but the larvae never survive. It’s inexpensive, easy to maintain, and honestly one of the best backyard hacks. I soray painted my lid with a plastic primer them a green color I had on hand to make it blend in with my yard. backyard entertaining, patio season, outdoor living, mosquito control, family friendly backyard, pet friendly mosquito solution, DIY mosquito bucket, backyard hack, summer backyard tips, outdoor hosting, cottage backyard ideas LTKSeasonal LTKmomlife LTKHome
