The Moment We’ve All Been Dreading: Mosquito Season Starts NOW!
Did you know mosquitoes have been terrorizing humans for thousands of years? Here’s the good news. With help from U.S. Pest Protection, you don’t have to suffer in your own backyard anymore.
When the weather finally starts to warm up, most people want to spend most of their time outside. And that comes with longer daylight hours, bonfires, and hamburgers on the grill. However, this season also welcomes back a pest that most people strongly dislike. That’s right, the mosquitoes are back.
If you consistently hear that faint buzzing sound around you this time of year, you’re not imagining it. Mosquito season has officially arrived and it comes with a lot of bites, itching, and a constant fight.
Let’s talk about what brings these pests back and how to get rid of them once and for all.
A Pest That’s Been Around for Millennia
Now we know that mosquitoes have been bothering humans for thousands of years. There’s nothing new about their presence in today’s world. In fact, they’re considered to be one of the most dangerous insects on the planet because of their ability to transmit harmful diseases.
Most people deal with the itchiness of their bites all summer long. But the global impact of these pests is way more serious than that. Their presence is enough to disrupt your outdoor plans and make relaxing evenings feel unbearable.
Why Mosquitoes Appear So Quickly and Out of Nowhere
Have you ever sat outside and found yourself constantly getting bit, even after putting bug spray on? There’s a simple reason for that.
Mosquitoes thrive in warm and humid areas, which makes their life cycle significantly fast. They love standing water, especially around your yard. Even the smallest amount of water is all it takes for them to lay their eggs. Within days, their eggs will hatch and develop into adults ready to feed on your blood.
But here’s the surprising fact about mosquitoes. The females are the only ones who actually bite you. This is because they need your blood to help them produce their larvae.
We recommend checking birdbaths, clogged gutters, flowerpots, and other locations in your yard regularly to limit their population. These areas are all so easy to overlook, which gives them more of an opportunity to grow quickly before you even realize there’s an issue. And that’s when an infestation takes place.
Why Mosquito Bites are So Irritating
Have you ever wondered why that itchy bump after a mosquito bite is so itchy? It’s your body’s natural reaction to their saliva. When a mosquito bites someone, they inject saliva into the skin to prevent blood clots. Then, your immune system responds by forming that itchy red bump that we know all too well.
Some people can have severe reactions to these little bites over time. It’s crazy how something like a minor inconvenience can quickly become a major health risk, especially during this time of year. That’s why it’s so important to keep up with your monthly services to keep these bugs from coming back.
The Backyard Battle You Can’t Win By Yourself
A lot of homeowners think they can defeat the mosquitoes on their own with DIY sprays, bug zappers, citronella candles, or whatever else the internet recommends. While these methods can certainly keep the problem away temporarily, they don’t get rid of them entirely.
One of the hardest challenges when it comes to these bugs is that they don’t just stick to one yard. You can eliminate all the standing water, but that won’t stop them from traveling in from nearby areas.
The most effective treatment is a professional barrier service from your trusted pest control company. Let the professionals walk you through a step-by-step plan made for your home.
