How to Reduce Mosquitoes Around Your Home

While professional treatments are essential for knockdown, homeowners can take several steps to make their property less attractive to mosquitoes. These pests need water to breed, and eliminating their breeding grounds is the most critical step in long-term prevention.

• Eliminate Standing Water: Check your property weekly. Empty water from flowerpots, birdbaths, old tires, buckets, and wheelbarrows.
• Clean Gutters: Clogged gutters are a hidden breeding ground. Ensure your gutters are clean and draining properly.
• Maintain Your Yard: Keep grass cut short and trim overgrown vegetation. Mosquitoes rest in these cool, shady areas during the day.
• Treat Water Features: If you have a pond or pool, ensure the water is circulating or properly treated to prevent mosquito larvae from developing.

By combining these simple habitat modifications with a professional treatment plan, you can dramatically reduce the mosquito population and make your yard enjoyable again.

Our Mosquito Treatment Process

At BUGWORKS Termite & Pest Control Company, we use our 18+ years of local experience to implement a comprehensive mosquito control plan. We know where mosquitoes live, rest, and breed in the RGV. Our process focuses on both immediate reduction and disrupting their life cycle for lasting relief.

• Property Inspection: We start by identifying breeding sites (standing water) and resting areas (dense foliage, under decks) on your property.
• Larvicide Application: We treat areas of standing water that cannot be removed with safe, eco-friendly larvicides to stop larvae from becoming biting adults.
• Barrier Treatment: Our certified professionals apply a fine mist to foliage, bushes, and shaded areas where adult mosquitoes rest, significantly reducing the active population.
• Ongoing Maintenance: We often recommend recurring treatments during peak mosquito season to maintain the barrier and keep populations low.

Your family's health and safety are our main concern. We use the safest products, and our work is backed by a 100% satisfaction guarantee.

Why DIY Mosquito Control Often Fails

Store-bought sprays and repellents only offer temporary, small-scale protection. They do not address the source of the problem. Mosquitoes will return as soon as the spray wears off, and they do nothing to stop the breeding cycle in your yard.

Mosquitoes rest in specific areas, like the underside of leaves and in dense shade. Effective treatment requires professional-grade equipment, like misters, that can penetrate this foliage. A simple garden sprayer cannot provide the necessary coverage or adherence.

Professionals are trained to identify and treat breeding sites with larvicides, which is the most crucial part of long-term control. Without addressing the larvae, new mosquitoes will constantly emerge, undermining any efforts to control the adults.
