Understanding Mosquito Behavior

We look forward to the spring and summer months when the sun shines and the weather is warm. We look forward to outdoor activities like barbecuing in the backyard and working on the lawn and flower gardens. However, almost everyone has had the unpleasant experience of being bitten by a mosquito.

Mosquitoes are a variety of fly, and there are more than 200 species of them in the U.S. Only female mosquitoes bite; they suck blood to get nourishment for their eggs. They need water to breed, which is why it’s essential to clean up standing water. Mosquitoes do not transmit HIV, but they can carry other diseases like West Nile Virus, Zika, etc.

Mosquitoes are unique in the way they find their prey. They can smell sweat and breath and can sense body temperature and movement. The saliva causes the itchy bites they leave behind that they pump in while sucking blood.

Diseases Mosquitoes Carry

No one wants to be bitten by mosquitoes, which leave itchy, red bites that last for days. Mosquitoes are notorious for transmitting diseases to humans and animals through bites. There are more than 200 types of mosquitoes in the US, and of these, about 12 types spread viruses and parasites that can make people sick.

The most common illnesses mosquitoes carry and transmit include:

  • Malaria
  • Yellow Fever
  • Zika Virus
  • West Nile Virus
  • Chikungunya
  • Yellow Fever

Titan Pest & Wildlife wants everyone in the St. Louis area to enjoy their outdoor spaces. What happens in your backyard can slow and mitigate the spread of these diseases. Let us help you reduce your family’s exposure to mosquitoes and the health risks they carry.

How to Prevent Mosquitoes

You can do several things to reduce the threat of mosquitoes in your yard. Here are a few suggestions:

  • Get rid of standing water from your property
  • Empty kiddie pools, birdbaths, children’s toys regularly
  • Clean gutters routinely and check for clogs
  • Keep your lawn mowed and clear tall grass and brush

Reducing the risk of harmful mosquitoes is essential for the safety of your family and pets. Titan Pest & Wildlife provides an added layer of protection by eliminating mosquitoes from your property.

Mosquito Control & Prevention

Titan Pest & Wildlife knows what a pest mosquitoes can be, which is why we offer mosquito management services. We target shrubbery and bushes, which helps keep these pests out of your property and creates a barrier. Our all-natural treatments bond to foliage, where it acts as a mosquito and tick repellent for weeks to come.

In addition, we will inspect your property for active larvae populations and treat them properly. Mosquitoes breed where there is standing water. We will identify potential mosquito breeding grounds within your property and help you eliminate these areas.

Protecting your yard and family from mosquitoes is not a one-time event. To ensure that your property stays mosquito-free and your family stays protected, you need a plan to prevent them from invading. Homeowners often only think about pest control when they see a bug in their kitchen. However, the most effective approach to pest management is not to react but to be proactive and prevent pest problems from ever happening in the first place.
