Mosquito Control: Importance, Methods, and Service Details

The Impact of Mosquitoes

It is theorized that the fly family, which includes mosquitoes, is responsible for half of the deaths in world history. Currently, mosquitoes cause approximately two million deaths each year due to the various diseases they transmit. Because of the range of illnesses spread by mosquitoes, it is essential to adopt proactive measures to manage and control mosquito populations.

Mosquito Life Cycle and Seasonality

Mosquito season typically begins in April. Taking control measures early, such as eliminating a single mosquito in April, can prevent the emergence of over 20 million mosquitoes by September. This is because each female mosquito can produce between 150 and 300 offspring in as little as two weeks.

Service Frequency and Challenges

Monthly mosquito control service is provided to ensure you receive the strongest and most consistent protection from the treatment products. While it is possible to eliminate mosquitoes in your yard, mosquitoes from neighboring properties may still enter, since mosquitoes do not recognize property boundaries.

Mosquito Treatment Methods

There are several approaches to treating mosquitoes, including fogging, spraying, baiting, and trapping. Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages. Since every property is unique, it is important to have an expert assess your home and develop a customized plan to achieve up to a 90% reduction in the mosquito population.

Fogging

Fogging is rarely used today because its effects are short-lived, and the visible fog can be a concern.

ULV Treatments

Ultra-Low Volume (ULV) treatments are similar to fogging, but the droplets are not visible to the naked eye. The droplet size is about 20 microns, whereas a human hair is 70 microns thick. this is best for a large area and is best suited for a city or HOA.

Backpack Misting Machines

Backpack misting machines have become the primary tool in the industry. They are widely used by pest control providers due to their efficiency and effectiveness. By targeting areas where mosquitoes rest, this method provides longer-lasting suppression of mosquito populations.

Larvicides

Larvicides are an excellent tool for controlling mosquitoes before they reach adulthood and become capable of biting.

Keys to Effective Mosquito Treatment

The fundamental approach to effective mosquito control is to treat both the areas where mosquitoes rest and any locations where they may lay eggs.
