Mosquito Control FAQs
Why are mosquitoes so abundant in my yard?
Mosquitoes are attracted to standing water, such as the water in flower pots or clogged drains, and in any container where rain collects. These areas represent ideal egg-laying opportunities. They also rest in cool, shaded areas such as tall grass or bushy leaves, so yards which possess these characteristics are attractive places for them to concentrate.
Are mosquito bites dangerous?
Most bites only give you itchy spots but mosquitoes can also give you illnesses such as dengue or malaria. It would be wise to protect yourselves from getting bitten. Should you get sick or feel very unusual signs such as feverish temperatures after a bite; then, you should head on to a healthcare provider.
How does mosquito control work?
Mosquito control helps lower their population by focusing on areas they gather and reproduce. We treat spots where they rest, such as plants and shaded areas, and eliminate places with standing water. The process also creates a protective layer to block more mosquitoes from coming near your property.
How often should mosquito treatments be done?
Mosquito treatments are typically needed about every three weeks when they are most active. This helps manage their population and keeps them from returning quickly. We can assess your property to figure out the best timing to maintain effective control throughout the season.
Will the treatment harm my family or pets?
No, the products we use are designed to be safe when applied the right way. We focus only on the areas mosquitoes live in. You can be sure that the pests will be controlled by the treatments without endangering your family members.
Is it possible for mosquitoes to live indoors?
It is true that mosquitoes can enter through open doors or windows. Although they typically don’t stay indoors for very long, they might if they can locate water to deposit their eggs in. One way to keep them out is to keep doors locked and fix screens.
What can I do to prevent mosquitoes?
Dump any standing water in your yard—mosquitoes lay eggs in even tiny amounts. Keep grass short and bushes trimmed, as they like to hide there. Using fans or wearing bug spray outside can also help keep them away.
Are mosquito traps effective?
Mosquito trap won’t fix the problem, but it will catch some. They work better in combination with other methods, like treatments and removal of breeding water sources. Think of traps as additional help and not the main way of controlling mosquitoes.
At what time of day can one avoid mosquitoes?
Mosquitoes are most active around sunrise and sunset. To reduce bites, wear long clothing and apply repellent during those hours. They are less likely to bother you in bright sunlight or windy weather, making the afternoon a better time to enjoy being outside.
Do I still need mosquito control in cooler months?
Mosquitoes are less visible during colder weather, but their eggs can stay dormant and hatch as it warms up. Taking preventive steps early can stop future issues. If the weather stays mild, a few mosquitoes may linger, so periodic treatments can still help manage them effectively.
