Mosquito Habitat

Adult mosquitoes originate mainly from two sources: either local standing water in which the mosquitoes have bred or more distant breeding sites. Many mosquito infestations can, in fact, be traced to backyard containers filled with water—for example, toys, pots and cans, tire swings, urns, animal tracks, and plugged rain gutters. More distant breeding sites include cemetery pots, construction sites, and trash dumps. Most mosquitoes remain within a half mile of their breeding site, but some can fly many miles. Numerous mosquito species are found in Texas. They can be classified according to similarities in the habitat preferences of their larvae, which in themselves provide information about other aspects of the mosquitoes’ ecology. Different species of mosquitoes prefer different types of standing water in which to lay their eggs. The presence of beneficial predators such as fish and dragonfly nymphs in permanent ponds, lakes and streams help keep these bodies of water relatively free of mosquito larvae. However, portions of marshes, swamps, clogged ditches and temporary pools and puddles are all prolific mosquito breeding sites.

Mosquito Extermination

Maintaining a strong mosquito control program is vital because mosquitoes transmit a variety of microorganisms that may cause human and animal diseases.With as little as two 45 second spray cycles misting at dawn and dusk will guarantee that you Take Your Yard Back.

Controlling Mosquito Breeding Sites

Homeowners, by eliminating mosquito breeding sites on their property, can reduce the number of mosquitoes in their neighborhood. Check not only your own property but surrounding areas as well, reporting any trouble spots to relevant municipal authorities. Community action is essential for controlling mosquitoes that can migrate distances greater than one-half mile. Homeowners can take the following actions:

• Dispose of anything outside that can hold water such as broken toys, tin cans, containers, ceramic pots, and in particular, used tires, which have become the most important mosquito breeding sites in the country.
• Drill holes in the bottoms of recycling containers left outdoors.
• Clean clogged roof gutters every year, especially if leaves tend to plug the drains.
• Turn over plastic swimming/wading pools and wheelbarrows when not in use.
• Do not allow water to stagnate in birdbaths, ornamental pools, water gardens, and swimming pools or their covers. Ornamental pools can be aerated or stocked with fish, and swimming pools should be cleaned and chlorinated when not in use.
• Empty accumulated water from boats and cargo trailers.
• Alter the landscape of your property to eliminate standing water. Keep in mind that during warm weather, mosquitoes can breed in any puddle of water.
