We’ve all encountered the insistent buzz and probing of mosquitoes. They are irritating at best, but dangerous at worst. Especially in the coming months, the presence of mosquitoes will become increasingly apparent, and increasingly important to treat. As a result of this yearly manifestation, it’s important to consider the many factors related to these tiny pests and why seasonal mosquito control is critical.
Why Treat Them
Some may think the worst consequence associated with mosquitoes is an annoying, itchy bump that goes away in a few days. However, mosquitoes are a warehouse of potentially deadly illnesses. Among those illnesses are West Nile Virus, Zika, yellow fever, and eastern equine encephalitis. On occasion people can also have an almost instant, anaphylactic reaction to a bite which can severely and fatally compromise the respiratory system.
For some, these may never be an issue. However, mosquitoes also possess the ability to completely ruin an outdoor space with their vexing presence and bites.
Ways to Treat a Mosquito Problem
Mosquito Squad of Huntsville provides a comprehensive list of services that attend to their client’s mosquito infestation problems. Chief (and most popularly) among those treatments is a barrier treatment. What this type of treatment does is kill existing pests on contact then creates an invisible perimeter around the treated area. When new bugs come into contact with the barrier they are either killed or repelled. In order for barrier protection to be most effective, an area should be retreated every 14-21 days. This treatment should be given 30 minutes to dry and then is completely safe for family, friends, or pets to be allowed into the space.
The Squad also provides treatments via misting systems. For this methods’ intents and purposes, a device in placed in the area and nozzles are strategically positioned to cover as much space as possible. Generally, it then goes off twice daily for approximately 30 seconds. These devices also include remote controls so clients can have them go off for any additional mists. In order to streamline maintenance and service of misting systems, they are automatically serviced, refilled, and winterized by Mosquito Squad technicians.
