How We Approach Mosquito Control Here
Our humid summers and wooded lots make this region ideal mosquito habitat.
Mosquitoes do not travel far. The population biting you in the evening almost certainly developed within a short distance of where you are standing, in water that has been sitting for a week or more. That is why treatment has to reach the resting sites and the breeding water, not just the air. Our approach works on both ends of the life cycle. Barrier treatment targets the shaded, humid places adult mosquitoes rest during the day: the undersides of foliage, dense shrub lines, fence rows and the cool side of the house. Larvicide treats the standing water we cannot drain, such as low spots, drainage structures and ornamental water. We also walk the property with you and point out the breeding sites you can remove yourself. Clogged gutters, saucers under planters, tarps, unused tires, boat covers and children's toys hold more than enough water. Around Lake Gaston and other wooded lakeside properties, that habitat survey matters as much as the treatment itself.

Lakeside property behaves differently to in town property. Here is what we plan around.
Forested Lakeside Lots
Tree cover and leaf litter hold moisture against the foundation and keep mosquito pressure high right through the season.
Lake Humidity
Shade and water keep soil damp long after open ground has dried, which is exactly the condition termites and rodents look for.
Seasonal Homes
Houses that sit empty for stretches give rodents time to settle in and let small crawl space problems grow quietly.
