Spending time outdoors is an essential part of enjoying the summer months, but your yard can turn into a health hazard when it’s infested by a horde of irritating mosquitoes. For long-lasting protection from these pests without the endless hidden costs and inconveniences that come with fighting them alone, turn to the pros at\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Ridgefield-New Milford. We use our premium mosquito control to protect lawns located all over the Guilford, CT area.<\/p>\n
It takes a comprehensive approach to effectively drive mosquito populations out of your yard and prevent new populations from appearing later on in the year. Here’s a quick look at the distinct steps we use to protect Guilford lawns from these invasive pests and keep them safer in the long run:<\/p>\n
Finding Mosquito Populations.\u00a0<\/strong>Managing mosquito populations requires knowing where these pests tend to hide. You can generally find these insects lounging on the bottom of the leaves in your yard or hanging out near sources of standing water. The undersides of leaves provide mosquitoes with shelter from the sun, while standing water sources are where they lay their eggs.<\/p>\n Targeting Active Mosquitoes and Breeding Grounds.\u00a0<\/strong>Getting dependable results from our treatments means targeting both breeding grounds and active populations. We’ll address breeding grounds in our initial visit, in which we’ll work with you to identify and address standing water sources as well as objects that can potentially collect water. After we address these breeding grounds, our technicians will use specialized equipment to spray the undersides of your leaves and get rid of active mosquito populations.<\/p>\n Providing Long-Term Protection.\u00a0<\/strong>To bring you protection that lasts through the entire mosquito season, ongoing applications are crucial. Every three to five\u00a0weeks, we’ll come back to apply additional applications that will keep any stragglers or budding populations under control. With this continuous approach, you’ll be able to get back to actually enjoying your outdoor spaces instead of hiding from mosquitoes indoors.<\/p>\n We offer our multi-faceted mosquito control to our neighbors located all over the area.
