Mosquitoes

Mosquitoes are more than just annoying, there are several species native and non-native to Florida that carry diseases. The most concerning are  Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus, both of which are vectors of Zika virus. Combined homeowner efforts as well as pest control treatment methods will assist in keeping these pests away from you and your loved ones.

Standing water is the perfect habitat for mosquito larvae to thrive, homeowners can prevent most mosquito activity by regularly checking around the home and clearing away any debris that may hold water. Old tires, water pales, even the kids inflatable swimming pool turned upside down provide excellent areas for adult mosquitoes to lay their eggs.
