Mosquitoes are a big part of summer in Redlands. With the bay, mangroves, creeks and plenty of rain, there is no shortage of places for them to breed. Mosquito control treats the shady shrubs, hedges and damp corners of your yard where mosquitoes rest during the day, so there are fewer of them around when you want to use the outdoor areas. Evenings on the deck are usually when people notice them most.
The crew we book also looks for water that mosquitoes can breed in. Pot plant saucers, old tyres, buckets, birdbaths, toys left in the rain and poorly sealed rainwater tanks can all hold enough water for mosquito larvae. Removing or emptying these is one of the simplest things you can do, and the crew will point out any they find during the visit.
- Treatment of shrubs, hedges and dense planting where mosquitoes rest
- A check for standing water around the house and yard
- Attention to shady areas near decks, patios and outdoor seating
- Tips for keeping breeding spots under control between visits
- The option to combine with a tick treatment in one visit
Mosquito numbers go up after rain and during the warm months, so many homes in Redlands book a treatment before a gathering or at the start of summer. A treatment reduces the number resting in your yard, but mosquitoes from the bay and nearby bushland can still fly in, so repeat visits through the season are common. For any health questions, ask a doctor.
