Mosquitoes - The Uninvited Party Guest

In Minnesota, summertime inevitably means sharing our yards with mosquitoes on the hunt for their next meal. Despite layering clothes or saturating ourselves in bug spray, evading these bloodthirsty pests seems nearly impossible! This is because they are drawn to our sweat, the carbon dioxide in our breath, and the fragrances we wear.

And did you know?

• There are approximately 50 different types of mosquitoes buzzing around Minnesota!
• Only female mosquitoes bite (and that’s because they need the protein in your blood to produce eggs)!
• There are no medications to treat viruses that are spread by mosquitoes!
• July through September is the highest risk of mosquito-borne disease in Minnesota!

Thankfully, there is a solution to help curb the mosquito population in your yard and send this uninvited party guest packing! With our Mosquito Control Package, you will receive 6 scheduled service visits - designed to combat mosquito hiding in your trees, shrubs, and landscape beds. Using misting backpack sprayers, these barrier spray treatments not only fight adult mosquitos, their eggs, and larvae - it also helps prevent fleas and ticks!
