What are mosquito?

Mosquitoes are pests that we all have had to face at one point or another. These blood-sucking insects are known for their annoying, high-pitched, buzzing sounds and the itchy red bumps they leave on our skin. Interestingly, it is only female mosquitoes that bite, while males only eat the nectar of plants. Female mosquitoes must get enough protein to provide nourishment for their eggs, which is why they must to feed on the blood of humans and animals.

Are mosquitoes dangerous?

Unfortunately, mosquitoes are considered dangerous due to the fact that they have the capability to spread several types of diseases between individuals. Disease mosquitoes have been known to carry include West Nile fever, Malaria, Yellow fever, Zika virus, and many more. When a female mosquito feeds on the blood of someone who is a carrier of one of these diseases and goes on to bite one or more people afterward, it can transmit the bacteria causing the disease to the non-infected person. As more people become infected, the spread of disease becomes faster and grows more dangerous.

Why do I have a mosquito problem?

There are a number of ways your property attracts mosquitoes. Mosquitoes are naturally more active during summer months due to higher temperatures and humid weather. However, properties with excessive foliage, tall grass, or thick brush tend to attract mosquitoes more than properties that do not. Additionally, properties with stagnant or still water provide resting and breeding grounds for mosquitoes looking to lay their eggs.

Where will I find mosquitoes?

Generally, mosquitoes prefer areas that are dark, warm, and filled with moisture. Tall grasses, thick forests, and ponds are all common areas where mosquitoes will rest, breed, and lay eggs. After the warmer weather has passed, mosquito activity around these areas will decrease dramatically, or even halt altogether.
