We provide the most advanced pest control in Southeast Florida to make those backyard barbecues and get-togethers an environment where there are no mosquitoes to ruin the merriment.

How To Identify A Mosquito

You have no idea what makes up the characteristics of a mosquito other than they're tiny and annoy you to no end. People spend so much time swatting or slapping them away from that they're not concerned with their anatomy. Think of a mosquito as the smaller version of a fly; the former has scales on most of its body, including veins on one pair of wings. Additionally, mosquitoes have an elongated, biting organ projecting from their heads called the proboscis. Interestingly, this organ is a lot longer than the head itself. 

Why Mosquitoes Are Considered So Dangerous

It's hard to imagine how insects so tiny can inflict an enormous degree of harm. But it's true; mosquitoes can transmit various viruses that can cause serious illness. Harken back to past outbreaks where the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued stern guidelines to communities that were the most at-risk of getting bitten and possibly infected with a virus. Out of 200 mosquito species in the United States, only 12 types are mainly responsible for spreading the bulk of the infections that make people sick. Review this list of five diseases that mosquitoes can transmit:

  1. Dengue
  2. Zika vrus
  3. Malaria
  4. Zika virus
  5. West Nile virus

One of the best actions you can take is to avoid being outside when mosquitoes are the most active, usually around dusk and dawn. You will significantly reduce your chances of encountering these insects at those times. You can also wear clothing that covers more of your skin, such as long pants, long-sleeve shirts, and closed-toe shoes.

Factors That Attract Mosquitoes To Your Yard

You’ve worked hard to make your property as aesthetically pleasing as possible, and your efforts haven’t gone unnoticed. Not only do your neighbors appreciate your flair for landscaping, but unfortunately, so do mosquitoes. And once these insects have trespassed onto your property, it’s only a matter of time before you become their next meal. Since moisture draws mosquitoes, review this list of five items that make the ideal breeding environment for these insects:

  1. Pools and hot tubs
  2. Gutters and puddles
  3. Bird baths
  4. Buckets
  5. Garden planters

By eliminating as many water sources in your yard as possible, you will significantly reduce mosquito populations. Contact your local pest control with assistance in eradicating large mosquito scourges.
