At Mosquito Hunters™, protecting local homes from mosquitoes is our mission. We offer the most effective residential mosquito control in Palestine and the surrounding areas. Our Technicians apply proven remedies to get rid of ongoing mosquito problems and limit future generations of these pests. We get many questions from our clients about mosquitoes and their behavior, so we thought we’d take the time to share some of our answers to the most common queries.
Are Mosquito Bites Dangerous?
There are many myths about mosquitoes and their ability to transmit disease, so it’s important to clear this up. Contrary to popular misconception, mosquitoes cannot transmit HIV. However, they can transmit West Nile and Zika virus and cause all heartworm infections in dogs and cats.
Do They Have a Long Lifespan?
Fortunately, mosquitoes only live for two to three weeks on average. The downside is that they can lay plenty of eggs during this short period, so it’s not as if the problem will go away on its own. In fact, without proper care, you should only expect your mosquito issues to get worse and worse.
How Do Mosquitoes Reproduce?
Female mosquitoes lay eggs on top of standing water. They are not flexible when it comes to this habitat. Consequently, a key part of our service is to inspect your property and get rid of these areas whenever possible. In between our visits, you can help the situation by removing any receptacles or other debris, however small, that may collect water when it rains. Mosquitoes can lay eggs on a water surface as small as an over-turned bottle cap.
We target mosquitoes by applying a non-toxic product across your yard. Within 30 minutes, the product will dry and create a lasting bond with the plants in the area. The vast majority of mosquitoes in the vicinity will be killed when they land, and future swarms will be deterred from entering the space. This protection lasts for three weeks after each application, with results secured by our Client Happiness Promise.
