Risks Associated with Mosquitoes

Around 150 mosquitoes commonly live in the United States – a handful of which can be found in . Like all mosquitoes, the ones taking over your yard feed on blood and typically leave nasty bites that are swollen and itchy.

Most mosquitoes can spread diseases. Many of the more dangerous illnesses passed by mosquitoes include Zika, Malaria, Dengue and Yellow Fever. Mosquito bites on dogs can cause heartworm. Fortunately, most of Maryland’s mosquitoes aren’t likely to pass on diseases and merely serve up irritating bites. You can’t take that chance as the climate gets warmer, though. It is wise to seek a mosquito treatment for your yard from American Pest’s mosquito control services.

Why Do Large Numbers of Mosquitoes Gather in ?

During the day, mosquitoes will largely rest in shaded areas, and they’ll take to the sky at night, seeking out pets or family members for a meal. Mosquitoes love two things – water and animals/humans. As you’re aware, the latter provides a great meal. However, water is often responsible for mosquitoes congregating in your yard. A large part of preventing mosquitoes from arriving in the first place is ensuring that your yard doesn’t present them with their ideal breeding conditions.

Female mosquitoes lay their eggs in water, the kind you can find in some ponds, gutters, bird baths, rain collection barrels, and watering cans. Anything that can hold water could potentially be a hotspot. During the hot summer months (especially) in , mosquitoes can be found in abundance around stagnant water. 

Spraying for mosquitoes is one of the services we provide that denies them these areas. Our mosquito control team will also highlight any water-based hazards in your yard.

• Northern House Mosquitoes: Common House Mosquitoes generally don’t spread serious disease but can be found throughout the season across Maryland.
• Asian Tiger Mosquitoes: Imported and now found on the Eastern seaboard, these striped mosquitoes leave a nasty bite and can spread disease.
• Eastern Saltmarsh Mosquitoes: Often found around saltwater pools. These pests are known for spreading heartworm in dogs when they bite.

Will Mosquitoes Come Back After American Pest’s Treatment?

No. There is no mosquito control service in , that can ever rid your yard of mosquitoes permanently. However, once American Pest has misted your standing water and vegetation, we’ve interrupted mosquitoes’ breeding cycles. A repeating mosquito pest control treatment once a month throughout the season should ensure that your yard remains mosquito free from April to September.
