If you have experienced a summer in North Carolina, then you are most likely familiar with the irritating mosquitos. Mosquitos begin their emergence in the spring, reach their peak nuisance level in the summer and often times carries over into the fall. Warmer weather, humidity and constant rain/standing water are all beneficial to keeping mosquitos alive. Unfortunately, along with their constant buzzing around and leaving itchy bites, mosquitos are known to carry and transmit harmful diseases.
With over 50 years of experience in the pest control industry, Pestco is constantly finding new and better ways to significantly reduce the mosquito population in our area.
There are several ways to reduce the population, and protect you and your family from these pesky insects:
- Remove Habitats: Mosquitos require standing water for two stages of their life cycle. It is important to remove any standing water to aid in the reduction process.
- Structural Barrier: To prevent mosquitos (or any other pest) from getting inside of home, be sure to keep doors and windows closed or install window and door screens.
- Control the Life Cycle of a Mosquito: At Pestco, we utilize several EPA-registered larvicides and adulticides to control the mosquito population in your area.
