How to install a rain barrelInstalling a rain barrel is very simple and can be done in less than 1 hour. Planning ahead is key!
First, decide where to install the rain barrel? It must be installed near a (roof gutter) downspout to be able to collect water efficiently. Second, you will need the following: shovel, small bag of gravel, level, 2 to 4 cinder blocks, hacksaw, flexible spout, 1/2" self-tapping screws, and hose. Watch this video from our friends at

Mosquito ControlMake sure to maintain the top screen, keep it clean and check it often for openings that may allow mosquitoes in. Make sure you have a hose securely attached to the overflow valve, to keep mosquitoes from entering the barrel.
We highly recommend using mosquito dunks just in case mosquitoes do enter. Dunks will kill the mosquito and the larvae to prevent reproduction (see accessories above). |
