Effective Mosquito Control: Protect Your Home and Family
How Our Mosquito Treatment Works
Our mosquito control solutions focus on disrupting the mosquito breeding cycle and reducing adult populations. We target areas where mosquitoes thrive, including standing water, dense vegetation, and shaded areas around your property. Our technicians will:
- Inspect your yard to identify mosquito breeding sites.
- Apply treatments that eliminate larvae and reduce adult mosquito populations.
- Provide tips on how to keep your outdoor areas mosquito-free in the future.
Safe and Effective Solutions
Our mosquito control treatments are designed with your family and pets in mind. Once dry, the treatments are safe for everyone and won’t harm your lawn or plants. Whether you're looking for a one-time treatment for a special event or ongoing mosquito control, we can customize a plan to suit your needs.

What attracts mosquitoes to my yard?
Mosquitoes are drawn to standing water, which they use as breeding grounds. They are also attracted to tall grass, dense shrubs, and flowers for shelter and food (nectar). Areas with poor drainage or moisture retention are prime spots for mosquitoes.
Are mosquitoes dangerous?
Yes, mosquitoes can transmit a variety of diseases, including West Nile virus, Zika virus, and dengue fever. While not all mosquitoes carry diseases, their bites can cause allergic reactions, discomfort, and potential health risks.
How can I prevent mosquitoes from breeding in my yard?
Eliminate standing water by regularly emptying birdbaths, planters, clogged gutters, and other water containers. Keep your lawn trimmed, and reduce dense vegetation to limit areas where mosquitoes can rest and breed.
How long does it take for mosquito treatments to work?
Our mosquito treatments start working immediately, reducing the mosquito population within the first 24 hours. For optimal control, we recommend ongoing treatments throughout mosquito season.
Can mosquitoes be eliminated completely from my yard?
While complete elimination is unlikely due to their ability to travel, our mosquito treatments significantly reduce the population and minimize their presence in your yard. Combined with preventive measures, our services can keep mosquitoes away for longer periods.
