How do hydroponic plants prevent mosquitoes from growing in summer? mosquitoes that are ubiquitous and unpreventable make people feel irritable and inadvertently bitten, and the red and itchy "little pimples" make people miserable. In order to deal with these abominable mosquitoes, people have come up with many ways to close doors and windows, all kinds of mosquito incense, mosquito nets, mosquito repellent water and so on. But obviously there are enough precautions, there are still mosquitoes at home from time to time, this is why? If there are often mosquitoes of unknown origin at home, you should consider whether there are suitable places for mosquito breeding, such as water basins, sewers, etc., as well as hydroponic flowers and plants. Hydroponic plants are smart, clean and easy to take care of, and they are the first choice for beautifying the house and purifying the air. However, the water environment in hydroponic flower containers is very similar to that in wild ponds, and mosquitoes like to spawn and breed in such places. Mosquitoes reproduce so fast that they can hatch new mosquitoes in two or three days. To deal with mosquitoes in the family, those hydroponic plants are our primary goal of prevention and control. First of all, the water in the hydroponic container should be changed every two or three days, so that mosquito eggs cannot hatch successfully. If you are afraid that changing water too often will damage the growth of plants, you can also drop a few drops of insecticide in the water to kill the eggs in the water. However, it should be noted that this method is not suitable for hydroponic plants co-cultured with fish and flowers, because if pesticides are not used properly, the small fish in the water will be "wiped out" together. In addition, there is another way to prevent mosquitoes from hatching in hydroponic containers. Oral vitamin B2 is known to keep mosquitoes away because mosquitoes hate the smell of vitamin B2. So we can use this method to put one or two pieces of vitamin B2 in the water to dissolve it, which can also keep mosquitoes away.
