No one likes mosquitoes. Except for critters like dragonflies, turtles, and hummingbirds, that consider mosquitoes a tasty meal. For humans, they’re a nuisance. But more than that, mosquitoes can carry diseases like West Nile Virus, Zika Virus, Malaria, and Dengue Fever. Some of those can be dangerous. Mosquitoes can also transmit diseases like heartworm to pets.

Did you know mosquitoes are actually pollinators? While no one is concerned about protecting them, there are other pollinators to think about when using pesticides. Bees and butterflies and other helpful insects can be harmed by many mosquito sprays.
So it’s important to apply them cautiously and strategically in a way that specifically targets mosquitoes. This requires knowing the right amount, where to apply, and what time of day will be most effective.
Even if you’re a DIY pest control fan, you may find yourself turning to adulticides for mosquito control. If so, we recommend hiring a professional who can give you a specific treatment plan for your yard.
