Mosquito Control

Mosquitoes are a common pest faced by homeowners, especially during the spring and summer months. They are tenacious, and can ruin outdoor activities if they swarm around your home.

Mosquitoes reproduce rapidly, and oftentimes their reproduction is largely determined by environmental factors such as moisture and temperature levels. In most cases, a mosquito infestation around your home is largely due to existing conducive conditions that are allowing the mosquitoes to reproduce easily. Due to this, a major part of the treatment process is the removal of such conditions.

Mosquito treatment is a multistep process. The first step of this process is a thorough inspection of the property. During this, the technician will identify problem areas as well as conducive conditions that are facilitating mosquito reproduction. The technician will also speak with the homeowner during this time to determine which areas of the property are most used, as these areas will be the focus of any treatment.

The next step in this process is the elimination of harborage areas and conducive conditions. The most important part of this is the removal or treatment of any standing water on the property. Female mosquitoes lay their eggs in standing water. The quantity of water can vary greatly, and even small puddles of water can provide a breeding area for mosquitoes. In this process, any unnecessary sources of standing water, such as containers, tree stumps, and holes in the lawn should be removed. Larger bodies of water or water features such as a pond or fountain can be treated with a product that prevents mosquito reproduction.

The final step in the mosquito removal process is treatment. During this time, a trained technician will dispense a treatment product to problem areas on the property.

This treatment will largely eliminate the adult mosquito population, and with breeding areas removed this will drastically reduce the number of mosquitoes around your home. Since mosquito populations are heavily influenced by outside factors such as breeding seasons and weather, re-treatment may be necessary in the future.
