Check often for cobwebs, mice and rodent droppings in sheds or garages, then make sure to call an expert if necessary to remove them. You might want to look around your yard and remove glass, toys and items such as bottle caps, nails, tires shredded or sharp tools. Check if there are buckets or toys such as cars, that could collect water. Then remove all the water "stand" and make these items inside. Sure you frequently change the water in all ponds or pools.
