Frequently Asked Questions About Mosquitoes

Our team is equipped with the tools and knowledge to keep mosquitoes off your lawn.

How do I protect my property from mosquitoes?
Along with getting regular mosquito prevention, seasonal mosquito maintenance, and mosquito control, there are proactive steps you can take to safeguard your home from these pests.
- Use Natural Repellents – Planting mosquito-repelling plants, flowers, and herbs in and around your home can keep mosquitoes away. Plant lemongrass, lavender, basil, rosemary, and marigolds in your garden to control mosquitoes. Keeping these in pots near entryways and windows can deter them from entering your home.
- Install Window Screens – Keeping windows open without screens only invites mosquitoes and other insects into your home. To avoid this, install window screens to keep out the flying critters.
- Repair Damaged Screens – Regularly inspecting your windows’ screens for signs of damage such as tears and holes. Flying insects like mosquitoes can easily enter your home through even the smallest tears. Either repair or replace damaged screens to safeguard the interior of your home from mosquitoes.
- Seal Leaks – Whether caused by severe weather or degradation over time, it is common for areas around doors and windows to become damaged. Mosquitoes and other pests can enter your home through these spaces, so inspect these areas regularly. Seal holes, cracks, and other leaks using caulking material.
- Yard Maintenance – Controlling the vegetation in your yard is an effective way to reduce mosquito and pest infestations. Overgrown vegetation can become a haven for resting and breeding mosquitoes. Cut back long, overgrown vegetation to help control mosquitoes.
- Remove Standing Water – Mosquitoes love water features, gutters, tree stumps, bird baths, puddles, pools, and any objects that can gather rainwater. This is because female mosquitoes lay their eggs in water and only require as little as 10 millimeters to lay their eggs. Be sure to remove water from these and other objects that collect water.
Are your treatments safe for my pets?
Yes! We offer pet-safe mosquito control stations for your property. Our mosquito traps naturally attract mosquitoes and control them without using large amounts of pesticides or harmful chemicals.
