Mosquitoes are more than just a nuisance; they are a serious public health threat, acting as vectors for dangerous diseases like the West Nile virus. As weather conditions change, mosquito populations can surge, making effective control essential. Gulf Home Pest & Termite Control offers a top-rated mosquito misting system, expertly installed by our licensed technicians. We are committed to safeguarding your home from mosquito outbreaks and other biting insects, including ticks, with our advanced, entomologist-approved control methods.
Our mosquito control system utilizes an integrated pest management approach to manage and reduce mosquito populations. We focus on eliminating adult female mosquitoes, which are responsible for reproduction, and ensuring that mosquito larvae do not reach maturity. This system is designed to provide long-lasting protection and significantly decrease mosquito numbers around your property.
Understanding the types of mosquitoes that affect your area helps us tailor our control strategies. Here are some common types:
Marsh Mosquitoes: Typically around 1/4 inch long, with black bodies and white stripes. Found in marshes, swamps, and wetlands. Black salt marsh mosquitoes are prevalent in brackish coastal regions like the Gulf of Texas.
House Mosquitoes: About 1/8 inch long with brown bodies and white stripes. Common around homes, breeding in standing water found in rain gutters, birdbaths, and flower pots.
Asian Tiger Mosquitoes (Aedes albopictus): Recognizable by their black bodies with white stripes, they are about 1/4 inch long. Known for their aggressive behavior and rapid reproduction, these mosquitoes are highly invasive in America.
Southern Mosquitoes: Similar in size to house mosquitoes, with black bodies and white stripes. They are common in the southern United States and breed in stagnant water.
Mosquito bites can lead to skin rashes, itching, nausea, diarrhea, fever, and muscle pain. More critically, mosquitoes can transmit severe diseases such as the Zika virus and yellow fever, which pose significant risks, particularly to pregnant women and individuals with weakened immune systems.
