How does pest control get rid of Mosquitoes? Mosquito treatment is usually an integrated effort involving source reduction plus the use of chemical control products when needed. Since mosquitoes develop in water, source reduction targets and eliminate water sources favorable for mosquito breeding. While source reduction is the more effective long-term approach to mosquito treatment, the mosquito treatment plan may require using chemical products to supplement source reduction.

The mosquito treatment plan begins with your pest management professional conducting a thorough property inspection and identifying the kind of mosquitoes causing problems. Once the inspection and identification are complete, your exterminator will prepare a mosquito treatment plan that provides recommendations and assistance for both source reduction and necessary chemical product use. Some of the source reduction recommendations might include:

• Locate Where They Come From: A diagram of your property is prepared that indicates actual or potential mosquito development sites.
• Keep Them Out of the House: Providing recommendations to exclude mosquitoes from getting inside the home.
• Eliminate Hiding Spots: Providing recommendations for vegetation management since many species of mosquitoes rest in vegetation around the home during the day.

Extermination providers have different methods of providing service. Most national providers offer one-time service or annual plans that include visits every other month and treatment for common household pests, including Mosquitoes. Additional visits are also available in between scheduled visits for any concerns that arise. Overall, recurring service is the most effective way to break the lifecycle of Mosquitoes.
