But there's nothing worse than sitting down to enjoy an evening in the sun, only to be plagued by irritating insects.
Although there are many natural hacks you can try to repel bugs, Lidl's Livarno Home Cylindrical Electric Insect Killer is guaranteed to make your garden a pest-free zone.
Landing in stores from Thursday, May 15, the £9.99 product will keep bugs at bay both during the day, and at night.
It uses low energy consumption - so you don't have to worry about high electricity bills - and is super easy to clean, thanks to the removable try at the base.
The bargain buy comes with a practical hanger, so you can hang it from trees or table umbrellas and comes with a three year warranty, guaranteeing your garden will be bug free for years to come.
It comes with a 1.5 metre long cable, so you can easily plug it in using an extension cable, and comes with fully insulated housing with protective mesh.
The insect killer is part of Lidl's Middle Aisle range, and can be found in the middle of your local supermarket.
However, as with all Middle Aisle offerings, once they're gone, they're gone, so you better be quick!
Amongst the bargains currently on the shelves in the middle of Lidl, is the Japanese Pull Saw With Angled Handle.
The bargain buy will set you back by just £4.99, making it the perfect product for penny pinchers.
Tips and Tricks to Keep Your Garden Pest-Free
The nifty gadget can help you trim back overgrown hedges, thanks to the flexible saw blade with coarse and fine teeth.
The product also has an ergonomic handle, and a soft grip, so you can chop hedges with comfort.
Lidl shoppers can also nab a bargain on a lawn tool, available at a fraction of the price of a similar Bosch buy.
The bargain supermarket is currently selling the Parkside Electric Lawn Trimmer for just £24.99, £75 cheaper than Bosch's Universal GrassCut 18V-26-500.
Keep pests out all summer
IF you want to ensure that your home is pest free this summer, here's what you need to know.
Hornets and wasps - hate the smell of peppermint oil so spraying this liberally around your patio or balcony can help to keep them at bay.
Moths - acidic household white vinegar is effective for deterring moths. Soak some kitchen roll in vinegar and leave it in your wardrobe as a deterrent.
Flying ants - herbs and spices, such as cinnamon, mint, chilli pepper, black pepper, cayenne pepper, cloves, or garlic act as deterrents.
Mosquitoes - plants, herbs and essential oil fragrances can help deter mozzies inside and out. Try eucalyptus, lavender and lemongrass.
And this handy buy is even cheaper for Lidl Plus app users, at just £19.99.
It is designed for "quick and clean lawn trimming", even in hard-to-reach areas.
With a 300W motor, the gadget features line spools that can be changed without tools.
It also includes a protective hood with a trimmer line cutter, as well as an ergonomic handle.
The gadget has an integrated power cable strain relief for the 10 metre power cable.
This buy, which hits the Lidl middle aisle on Thursday, May 15, boasts a cutting diameter of 23 centimetres.
