Did you ever wonder if mosquitoes are picky about the people they bite? Has it ever seemed unfair to you that your arms and legs are covered in bites when your friend or sibling gets off without a single one?
It turns out that there are several factors that lead mosquitoes to prefer to bite some people more than others. One of these factors is your blood type. If you have blood type O – the universal donor – you are being bitten far more often than the people around you who have blood type A, B, or AB.
There may be some comfort to be found in knowing the taste of your blood is the one mosquitoes prefer – but honestly, you don’t have to deal with that. You should be able to relax in your backyard without being bitten to death – or having to douse yourself in foul-smelling insect repellents.
Introducing Newton Mosquito Control Services
Mosquito Control Services remove mosquitoes from your property, so that you can enjoy yourself without worrying about getting bitten. If there are no mosquitoes around, it doesn’t matter what your blood type is.
Mosquito control services involves identifying and removing mosquito breeding sites, as well as mosquito eggs and young mosquitoes. Adult mosquitoes are eliminated in their nesting sites, and family and pet safe products are applied to discourage the mosquitoes from returning.
It’s important to understand that mosquitoes breed in standing water – and they don’t need a lot of water to create a lot of new mosquitoes. Half a cup of water left to stand can host thousands of baby mosquitoes, all of whom have the potential to develop into biting adult mosquitoes. As part of mosquito control services, technicians will identify areas where water accumulates on your property and make suggestions to remedy those areas. This will help keep new mosquito populations from becoming established in your yard.
