a little mosquito bites on a human - Mosquito Pest Control

WHY CONTROL MOSQUITOES?

If you find yourself swatting mosquitoes frequently or noticing red, itchy bumps, it’s a sign that these pests are becoming a problem. Though mosquitoes might seem like a simple nuisance, they pose greater threats by spreading diseases that can impact both your family and pets.

Mosquitoes thrive and reproduce quickly, especially in warm and damp environments. Addressing the issue early on with effective mosquito pest control is key to keeping your outdoor spaces and home free from these bothersome insects and the risks they bring.

1. Take Back Your Outdoor Space

Mosquitoes shouldn’t stop you from enjoying your yard. With professional help, you can relax outside, free from bites and buzzing pests.

2. Reduce the Risk of Disease

Mosquitoes aren’t just a nuisance; they carry dangerous viruses like West Nile and Zika. Taking quick steps to reduce their numbers can lower the chances of disease and keep your family safe from these hidden threats.

3. Safeguard Your Pets

Just like people, pets can suffer from mosquito bites and the diseases they carry. Effective mosquito control keeps both your family and pets safe.

After treatment, here are a few simple ways to keep mosquitoes from coming back:

    Empty Containers: Get rid of water that collects in outdoor containers like plant saucers or toys.

  • 3

    Yard Upkeep: Trim back plants and clear out damp areas to stop mosquitoes from settling in.

HOW TO SPOT MOSQUITO ACTIVITY

Mosquitoes may seem invisible until they start biting, but identifying their presence early can help you control them more effectively. Look out for these common signs of mosquito activity:

1. Noise Level

If you start hearing the distinct high-pitched buzzing sound that mosquitoes make, particularly around your ears, it’s a clear sign they’re nearby. This noise is more noticeable during evening hours.

2. Unusual Swarms in Shady Areas

Look for clusters of mosquitoes gathering in shaded spots in your yard, especially near bushes or trees. Mosquitoes tend to rest in cooler areas during the heat of the day before they become active again.

3. Dark Spots on Walls or Ceilings

Sometimes, you can spot mosquitoes resting on walls or ceilings, especially in darker areas inside your home. If you notice this, there’s a good chance they’ve found entry points and are breeding nearby.

Bobcat Wildlife & Pest Management came to my house to deal with a serious bat problem. I have had no issues with bats since they came, and the guy who did the work on my house was thorough and took obvious pride in his work. They are knowledgeable and thorough and don’t take the easy way out. It was clear that they really cared about solving my bat issue and I highly recommend them to anyone with a bat problem.

Knowledgeable, careful, and insightful-
I had the opportunity to meet with Nicole Spaulding from Bobcat Wildlife and Pest Management to learn more of what she does and to ask questions about their industry, fearing it affected my own (outdoor aquatic stock growth).
She took the time to share with me the ins-and-outs of her industry, genuinely caring for my concerns, resolving them completely in the end.

Thank you so much! We debated calling for a long time. When I finally did Blake came the very next day and trapped the squirrel who was the culprit of the damage. He fixed the damage too! We are so happy we finally called, wish we would have done it sooner! Thanks Blake!
