Mosquitoes are the most unpleasant of all flying insects in Florida. They also transmit diseases like Zika virus, Yellow fever, Dengue, Malaria, Nile River fever…
General Approach
To control mosquitoes’ population in a Florida single-family home, we need to work in three different levels:
Treating de entire perimeter of the property, creating a synthetic barrier
Spraying with a Backpack Blower.
Using a Mix of products:
- Eco-friendly Killer
- Natural Repellent
- Waterproof Sticker
- Insect Growing Regulator
Specific way of spraying: Bushes, trees, and grass of the property
Using Larvicide products:
To treat water areas in the house
Mosquito traps (In2care …) strategically placed
Creating an out-door specific “safe area”: Misting System
Frequency of Spraying:
To control mosquitoes’ population in a Florida single-family home, we need to work in three different levels:
Between 7- 30 days depending on the mosquito population and the South FL Mosquito Season ( Between 7-21 days from Apr 1st to Oct 15th, and every month from Oct 15th to Apr 1st).
MISTING SYSTEMS
A permanent, automatic misting system is the optimum solution to control flying insects. Very effective for mosquitoes.
We optimize the misting circuit and the formula for your house, farm or business.
We can install a new generation system for a constant and prolonged defense against flying insects, helping keep your deck, pool patio, grilling area or any outdoor area bite-free.
Designed to release a misting spray several times a day for less than a minute and can include a remote control allowing you to choose additional or fewer sprays as needed.
SOME TIPS ANTI MOSQUITOES
Cover windows with screens.
Remove all standing water (remember ashtrays…).
Cover your skin with long sleeves shirts and pants.
Essential oils against mosquitoes: Eucalyptus, Lemon, Lavender, Almonds, Citronella, Rosemary and Geranium.
Soak some cotton balls in these oils and place them in a jar. You can also put a couple of drops on your neck or pajamas.
Use candles/ torches with citronella smell.
Place some pots with basil or rosemary somewhere in the house.
Place half a lemon with a few cloves punctured on the window of your bedroom.
Be careful with your socks, mosquitoes love dirty socks. ????
