Mosquito treatment Melbourne

Did you know that Australia is a home for at least 300 mosquito species? Those that do bite humans can result to significant health risk. This includes Dengue fever, Australian Encephalitis, and Ross River fever.

Mosquitoes generally bite humans during dawn or dusk because they have an internal clock that tells them correctly when it is their feeding time.

Mosquitoes generally breed in outdoor spaces, and that is where you are more likely to be bitten. However, they can fly into the interior spaces and start producing in areas there, which means you can be impacted when you are indoors.

Mosquitoes are generally attracted to dark colours so if you are wearing black clothing, you are more likely to get bitten.

If you have any stagnant water like pools or ponds on your property, these pests can begin to breed on the water surfaces, especially if the water is stagnant.

It takes only about 6 to 10 days for mosquito eggs to hatch and turn into larvae and adults.

How we treat mosquito infestation

Inspection and remove breeding grounds: We first conduct a thorough inspection of your property to identify mosquitoes breeding sites. This will help us disrupt the mosquito life cycle and prevent future infestations. Some areas can be stagnant pool water, rain gutters, dark areas, trash cans, flowerpots, old tires and more.

Customised long-term solution: We carefully select the type of treatment to minimise environmental impact while maximising effectiveness against mosquitoes. These methods include physical control techniques, biological control measures, pesticides, and fogging. We make sure our mosquito control is safe for humans and pets.

Prevention methods: To effectively manage the mosquito infestation over the long term, we will provide you with tailored strategies and advice.
