Mosquitoes should be mitigated through an active IPM inspection

Mosquitoes can pose a serious risk to loved ones and should be mitigated through an active IPM inspection of home and property. Make your customers aware of any standing water, such as in rain barrels, old tires, yard debris piles, birdbaths or open trash cans, all of which can attract and harbor mosquitoes.

For treatment, you can’t beat the one-two punch of larvicides and mosquito traps. Apply bacterial and growth-inhibiting larvicides to standing water — and lawns, in granular form — to kill mosquito larvae and disrupt their development. Meanwhile, light- and water-based traps entice and eradicate adult flying mosquitoes.
