The Buzz On Mosquitoes
Mosquito activity in our area can be intense, especially during the warmer months. High temperatures and humidity create ideal breeding conditions for these pesky insects. Mosquitoes can repopulate quickly, with females laying up to 300 eggs at a time. These eggs can hatch in 24-48 hours under the right conditions, leading to rapid growth in their population. That's why consistent treatment is key to keeping them under control.
Homeowner tips to reduce mosquitoes:
- Eliminate standing water around your property
- Maintain a clean and mowed lawn
- Plant mosquito-repellent plants
