Welcome to Pest Talk: The Buzz on Bugs!—the show where your favorite pest pros, Mark Buzz and Anna Bugs, break down all things creepy, crawly, and downright annoying.

In this episode, we’re diving into one of the internet’s favorite DIY pest control myths: Can bleach really get rid of mosquitoes? Spoiler alert—it’s not the miracle solution you might think. We talk about what bleach can do (like knocking out mosquito larvae in water), what it can’t do (like stopping adult mosquitoes from crashing your BBQ), and why it might be doing more harm than good around your yard.

We’ll also share smarter, safer ways to keep those bloodsuckers at bay—like ditching standing water, using BTI, or just a drop of dish soap. And of course, when it’s time to call in the pros, we’ve got tips for finding solid pest control that actually works.

Tune in, bug out, and let’s get those mosquitoes off your guest list.
