I'm looking for effective methods to keep mosquitoes away from my yard and garden, but I want to make sure that whatever I use won't negatively affect the pollinators. Any suggestions?

I usually just ask my daughter to help out. She seems to attract them all—like a magnet, haha! But it’s a trade-off because biting flies always find me too. What can you do?
A lot of folks recommend using Mosquito Dunks. They’re safe for your plants and won’t harm pollinators. I just found a great video about them on YouTube, so I’m planning to try it myself!
Honestly, just getting rid of any stagnant water around your yard can really help. I don't have any standing water on my property, so I rarely see mosquitoes. Of course, controlling what my neighbors do is another story!
Yeah, it's tough when neighbors don't clean up! Maybe leaving a friendly note could help?
Sounds interesting! I'd love to hear how it works for you after you try it.
