In this video, I share how to attract dragonflies for a mosquito free yard and garden! Dragonflies are nature's mosquito control. A single adult dragonfly consumes dozens of mosquitoes a day, and swarms of dragonflies can eat thousands! I attracted armies of dragonflies to my yard, and my mosquito problem has been eliminated! I want to teach you how to do this!
Mosquitoes are the deadliest animal on earth, killing an estimated 750,000 to 1 million humans each year by spreading lethal diseases from person to person. But aside from the danger, mosquitoes are downright annoying and can ruin an otherwise perfect spring or summer evening by making your backyard unusable. I have a creek behind my backyard, and I had terrible mosquito problems that made it impossible to go outside on warm evenings. I knew I had to do something, and constantly spraying chemicals to kill mosquitoes was not the solution. Instead, I took a natural approach and transformed my backyard and garden into an oasis for dragonflies. Now, my backyard colonizes enormous populations of dragonflies. You'll see them practically everywhere throughout the video. By attracting dragonflies to my yard, they are controlling insects for me so I no longer have to. It's absolutely incredible.
In addition to mosquitoes, dragonflies eat gnats, flies, beetles, moths and other nuisance insects. The insect control benefits are endless. This video will teach you how to attract dragonflies to your yard, and it only takes 3 easy steps.
