Eliminating a mosquito infestation can be challenging, especially in warm and humid climates. However, a combination of professional mosquito control services and your own preventative measures can help solve the problem. The most crucial step is to recognize that mosquitoes only require a small amount of standing water to breed. Thus, the first action is to inspect your property thoroughly for any areas where water may collect from rainfall or sprinklers.

Some useful measures to prevent mosquito breeding grounds include frequently changing water in birdbaths and fountains, keeping rain gutters clean, checking for any water accumulation in yard decorations, playsets, and toys, as well as in plants like bromeliads. Additionally, learning more about eliminating mosquito breeding grounds around your house and protecting yourself and your family from mosquito bites can be beneficial.

By following these prevention steps, along with the assistance of professional mosquito control services, you can effectively rid your home of a mosquito infestation and prevent future occurrences.

Mosquitoes are typically an outdoor annoyance, but encountering them indoors can be frustrating and alarming. Whether they entered with you or your pets or snuck in through an open door, it's important to check your home for potential entry points that may be giving mosquitoes a way inside. During mosquito season, take the time to inspect your doors and windows, ensuring that they are well-sealed and that screens are free from any tears or damage that could provide a pathway for mosquitoes to enter. Additionally, these maintenance measures can also help keep other pests out of your home.

It's also important to check for any standing water inside your home, as it can serve as a breeding ground for mosquitoes. Look for any leaks in your pipes and faucets, as well as any trays under indoor plants that may be holding stagnant water. Even vases of flowers that are past their prime and rarely used toilets can provide enough water for mosquitoes to breed. Taking action to remove any sources of standing water can help reduce the number of mosquitoes inside your home.

If you have a severe indoor mosquito problem, it's important to keep in mind that mosquitoes can transmit diseases. To protect vulnerable members of your household, such as young children and the elderly, consider using mosquito repellents for adults and mosquito net canopies over cribs and beds until the mosquitoes are eliminated. By taking these preventative measures, you can help reduce the number of mosquitoes inside your home and ensure the safety and well-being of your household.

Although there are chemical solutions available in the market to combat mosquitoes, their efficacy tends to be short-lived in comparison to the products utilized by professional pest control services. Products like malathion and permethrin are commonly found in home and garden stores. However, these insecticides typically only remain effective for a few days before breaking down and becoming ineffective. Although the usage of malathion in small amounts is relatively safe, permethrin can be harmful to bees and fish due to its toxicity.

It may come as a surprise, but mosquitoes, especially females, can live indoors for a significant amount of time. Female mosquitoes can live for up to 21 days after having a meal from you or your pets, depending on the species. In contrast, males, which do not bite, typically have a shorter lifespan of only about a week.

Mosquitoes pose a significant threat to human health, as they are known to spread diseases at a rapid pace. Some of the diseases transmitted by mosquitoes include the Zika virus, West Nile virus, dengue fever, malaria, and various others.

Our mosquito control services use ultra-low volume (ULV) treatments, which are applied through backpack misters. We meticulously apply fast-acting and long-lasting barrier sprays, focusing on the undersides of foliage in shady areas where mosquitoes are more likely to lay their eggs. Apart from our recurring mosquito control service, which can be paused during winter months when mosquitoes are less active, we also offer affordable one-time treatments for outdoor events.

To keep mosquito populations under control, there are various steps that you can take. These include removing all sources of standing water, regardless of their size. It's essential to change the water in bird baths frequently and keep any vegetation or trash away from standing water sources that cannot be emptied. During peak mosquito hours around dusk and dawn, it's best to stay indoors. Ensure that the screens on your doors and windows are in good repair and well-sealed to prevent mosquitoes from entering your home. When outdoors, wear protective clothing such as long sleeves and pants, and use repellents on exposed skin. By implementing these preventive measures, you can minimize the number of mosquitoes in your environment and reduce the risk of mosquito-borne diseases.
