Mosquito FAQs
When do mosquitoes come out?
Mosquitoes are most active in the early morning and late afternoon, but they can bite at any time during the day. Female mosquitoes are the ones that bite, and they are attracted to the carbon dioxide that humans and animals exhale. They can also detect the heat and moisture from our bodies, which is why they are always buzzing around us.
Where do mosquitoes lay their eggs?
Female mosquitoes lay their eggs in standing water. They can lay up to 300 eggs at a time and can lay eggs in as little as a bottle cap full of water. The eggs hatch into larvae in about 48 hours, and the larvae develop into pupae in about a week. The pupae emerge as adult mosquitoes in about two days.
What are the signs of a mosquito infestation?
The most obvious sign of a mosquito infestation is seeing mosquitoes in your yard. You may also notice mosquito bites on your skin. Mosquito bites are usually itchy and can become red and swollen. If you notice these signs, it’s important to call a professional mosquito exterminator right away to avoid an infestation.
What are the dangers of mosquitoes?
Mosquitoes are more than just a nuisance. They are also a health hazard. Mosquitoes are known carriers of many different diseases, including malaria, dengue fever, yellow fever, and the West Nile virus. They can also transmit diseases to animals, including dogs and horses. In addition to the health risks, mosquito bites can be itchy and uncomfortable.

How to Prevent Mosquitoes
One of the best ways to prevent mosquitoes is to eliminate standing water in your yard. Mosquitoes lay their eggs in standing water, so getting rid of any sources of standing water can help reduce the mosquito population in your yard. If you have a birdbath, make sure to change the water every few days. You should also empty any containers that have collected rainwater, such as buckets and flower pots.
Other ways to prevent mosquitoes include:
- Keep your yard clean and free of debris. Mosquitoes like to hide in tall grass and weeds, so keeping your yard well-maintained can help reduce the mosquito population.
- Use mosquito repellent. Mosquito repellent can help keep mosquitoes away from you and your family when you are outside. There are many different types of mosquito repellent on the market, so you may need to try a few different products to find one that works for you.
- Wear long sleeves and pants. If you are going to be outside for an extended period of time, make sure to wear long sleeves and pants to protect yourself from mosquito bites.
- Install mosquito netting. If you have a porch or patio, you may want to consider installing mosquito netting to keep mosquitoes out of your outdoor living space.
