Mosquitoes are among the most persistent outdoor pests across the Southeast and Mid Atlantic, thriving in the warm, humid conditions that define our region for much of the year. Only female mosquitoes bite, as they need blood to produce eggs, and they are drawn to the carbon dioxide, body heat, and moisture that people naturally produce. Mosquitoes breed in standing water, and it takes very little, a bottle cap worth of water is enough for certain species to lay eggs.
Common breeding sites include clogged gutters, birdbaths, plant saucers, old tires, and low spots in the yard where water collects after rain. Beyond the itchy bites, mosquitoes are known carriers of diseases including West Nile virus and Eastern equine encephalitis.
Proforce Pest Control uses a threefold approach that includes source reduction, monthly spray treatments, and the In2Care mosquito system to reduce mosquito populations on your property throughout the season.
We use a three part approach. First, your service professional identifies and addresses standing water sources where mosquitoes breed. Second, we apply monthly pyrethrin spray treatments to landscaping, shaded resting areas, and the perimeter of your property where mosquitoes harbor. Third, we use the In2Care system, which uses stations that attract mosquitoes and treat accumulated water, making breeding areas inhospitable and reducing the local population over time.
Mosquito service is provided on a monthly schedule during active season. Each visit takes approximately 30 minutes, depending on the size of your yard. Consistent monthly treatments are important because new mosquitoes can move in from neighboring properties, and rainfall creates new breeding opportunities regularly.
Yes. While heavy rain can wash away some surface spray, the In2Care system is specifically designed to work with water. It remains effective after rainfall and continues to treat water sources where mosquitoes breed. Your monthly service visits also reapply barrier treatments to keep coverage consistent.
The products we use are designed for residential outdoor application and are kid and pet friendly once dry. Your service professional will let you know how long to wait before returning to treated areas, typically just until the spray dries, which does not take long in our climate.
