What a technician typically checks
A technician typically walks the property to find breeding sites and resting areas, and explains yard treatment options and how often they are applied.
Before the visit
Empty standing water weekly, clean gutters, and change birdbath water. For health questions about mosquito-borne illness, check your local or state health department.
Frequently asked questions
When is mosquito season?
It depends on local temperatures and rain. In most areas mosquitoes are active from late spring through early fall, longer in warm climates.
Does mosquito control get rid of all mosquitoes?
Treatments reduce mosquitoes around a property, but mosquitoes can fly in from nearby areas, so results vary.
Is standing water really that important?
Yes. Many common mosquitoes can breed in very small amounts of water, so removing it is one of the most effective steps.
