Learn About The Mosquito Control Park Ridge Residents Use

By Patrick McDonald


Summer is the time of year most folks want to sit out in their yard and enjoy the evenings. Often, the warm nights also bring annoying mosquitoes. There are several tips for mosquito control Park Ridge, NJ residents use to help eliminate these pests from their gardens and yards. The following steps will help you banish the flying pests from your yard for good.

The first thing to do is a survey of the insect problem. This should be done by a trained technician. The technician can identify a boundary where you want to prevent insects from getting in. In addition, it is important to find the breeding areas within the boundaries. There is no point to establishing a barrier to keep the pests out if they are already inside the perimeter breeding.

The next thing to do is implement initial control. This is important for dealing with the insects that are already inside the perimeter and breeding. The insects hid out in moist dark environments. Such environments include very dense shrubbery, thick vegetation, and areas with long grass. These areas are typically treated with insecticide spray.

Spraying lasts for approximately twenty eight days and then it is necessary to repeat. With misting systems there is no need to repeat the spray. Misting systems are used as barriers to prevent insects from getting in the yard. The initial spraying helps eliminate active mosquitoes and prevent them from mating.

Only the female insects bite to draw blood that supplies protein for the development of eggs. Male insects and females not actively breeding feed on nectar. The female insect lays her eggs on the surface of water. This is why it is important to remove any standing water. If you have a pond on your property, it will be necessary to spray it and other places where there is standing water.

Depending on the species, a mosquito has a life cycle of ten to fourteen days. Water is necessary for the breeding process. Things that hold water such as birdbath, a bucket, pail, or watering can, make excellent breeding grounds. These insects can lay over one hundred eggs at once and this happens every three days. In the females lifetime she lays hundreds of eggs.

This is the standard method of treatment for mosquitoes in Park Ridge, IL. Setting up a barrier using a misting system to automatically spray insecticide about the area will keep the yard protected. A central tank or individual containers feed the insecticide through the spray nozzles at intervals when the insects are very active, in the early hours of the morning, at dusk, and the first hours of darkness.

When both systems are used you can clear the yard of the pests and create a barrier to prevent entry of new insects. This seems to be the most successful way to control mosquitoes. Some folks are satisfied with an initial spray and repeat treatments. However, if you have a very active yard you may prefer the initial treatment and misting system as a comprehensive approach to eliminating the pests.
