The Importance of Mosquito Control
Mosquitoes are notorious for spreading diseases. Approximately 700 million people around the world get sick from mosquito bites each year. These diseases are caused by parasites, bacteria, or viruses transmitted by a mosquito’s bite. As people travel more and more around the world, the chances of mosquitoes transferring disease increases. Several diseases transmitted this way are the Zika fever, West Nile fever, yellow fever, malaria, dengue virus, Chikungunya, and several different strains of encephalitis.
Professional Integrated Mosquito Spraying Management
Organized integrated spraying methods need to be initiated to control these pests. An experienced team will check the home for mosquito nests, larvae control, and removal which will fit into all environmentally safe techniques to clear suspected areas of a home. Professionals know each stage of the mosquito life cycle which assists in containing any future mosquito infestations. Today some of the pesticides experts use are now actually broken down into larvicides for the mosquito’s infant stage of the life cycle, and adulticides for the adult stages of a mosquito’s life cycle. This helps to keep a strong handle on these pests. Mosquito control begins with these effective management elements which include:
- Evaluate adult and larval sampling
- Reduce water and food sources
- Introduce parasite and predators of mosquitoes to help with elimination
- With mosquito spraying of larvicides and adulticides destroy remaining mosquitoes
With continued care and monitoring of homes, prevention of further infestations is possible with the support of a qualified mosquito management team.
