Mosquitoes

Are mosquitoes dangerous?

Mosquitoes pose more than just itchy bites. They are carriers of various diseases, which can lead to severe health problems. Diseases transmitted by mosquitoes include malaria, West Nile Virus, dengue fever, and Chikungunya virus, among others. The disease spreads when an infected mosquito bites a person or animal and bites another non-infected individual. Seek immediate medical assistance if you experience signs of illness after a mosquito bite. Stay informed and protect yourself from mosquito-borne diseases.

Why do I have a mosquito problem?

During warmer months, female mosquitoes seek breeding sites and resting spots after obtaining a blood meal to nourish their eggs. If your property offers favorable conditions, such as moisture, standing water, thick foliage, or tall grass, it becomes an ideal environment for mosquitoes to thrive. Such properties may experience higher mosquito populations.

Where will I find mosquitoes?

Mosquitoes are commonly found near ponds, lakes, areas with standing water, and places abundant in dense foliage. Properties that provide breeding space and necessary resources attract mosquitoes. Wooded areas also tend to be hotspots for mosquito activity. Unveil their preferred habitats and take steps to reduce mosquito populations on your property.
