Mosquito control for your yard

If you can’t sit outside after six, call and we put you through to a local mosquito company. A barrier treatment on the shrubs where they rest takes the yard back for several weeks at a time.

  • Real person answers, day or night
  • Same-day visits in most areas
  • Price agreed before work begins
  • No obligation

Is this what you have?

The signs

  • Bitten every time you go out, worst at dawn and dusk
  • Mosquitoes hanging in the damp shaded corners of the yard
  • Standing water in gutters, birdbaths, tarps or plant saucers
  • Clouds of them around dense shrubs, ivy or under the deck
  • Buzzing in the bedroom at night
  • Bites all season despite candles and sprays

Heads up. Standing water is where every one of them starts. Tip out the buckets, planters, toys and blocked gutters before the visit and the treatment does far more.

On the day

What the technician does

  1. Walk the property

    Breeding sites, resting sites and the way they are getting to the patio.

  2. Barrier treatment

    A residual product on shrubs, under the deck and along the fence line — typically holding for three to four weeks.

  3. Breeding sites

    Water that can’t be drained gets a larvicide; everything else gets emptied.

  4. Seasonal plan

    Repeat treatments through the season if you want the yard usable all summer.

Practical

Getting ready, and what it runs

Preparation

Empty anything holding water, mow, and keep everyone off the treated planting until it has dried — usually half an hour to an hour, and the label says exactly.

One visit or ongoing

Mostly seasonal: every three to four weeks from spring to first frost. One-off treatments before an outdoor event are common.

What moves the price

  • Size of the yard and how much planting there is
  • One-off or a seasonal plan
  • Larvicide for a pond or drainage
  • Adding tick treatment

Questions

Mosquitoes — questions we get a lot

Who do I call about mosquitoes?

Call (833) 784-1375 and we connect you with a local mosquito control company.

How long does a barrier treatment last?

Usually three to four weeks. Heavy rain shortens it.

What about the kids and the dog?

Ask the technician which product they are using and read the label’s re-entry time with them before they start.

Will it get rid of every mosquito?

No — they fly in from next door. It brings the yard down to a level you can actually use.
