Move over, mosquitoes. Not only are these pests a nuisance, but they can leave painful bites on unsuspecting victims. Prevent these tiny vampires from feasting on your employees and customers by identifying their source and using preventive pest control to eliminate the itch left behind by mosquitoes.
Breeding Sites
While the hum of a mosquito is a clear indicator of mosquito activity, finding the source of these pests is less obvious. Mosquitoes are attracted to warm, moist environments and stagnant bodies of water that are ideal for their breeding grounds. When inspecting your facility for mosquito activity, pay close attention to these areas:
- Ponds
- Fountains
- Puddles
- Marshes
- Swamps
So Long, Suckers!
Once mosquitoes have found their home on your property, they can be difficult to get rid of. That’s why it is important to eliminate any potential attractors and use preventive methods to keep them away for good. Try these proactive methods to protect your business from mosquitoes:
- Remove any bodies of standing water
- Install outdoor “bug” lights
- Seal around air conditioning units
