Mosquitoes

There are almost 100 species of mosquitoes in Western Australia. Many of these are serious pests and/or transmit disease-causing viruses or parasites.

​

Mosquito management is necessary to minimise the impact on people in residential or commercial situation.

The overall aim of mosquito management is to reduce the mosquito's to a level where the impact on humans is kept to an acceptable low level. Different mosquito species have different breeding habitat requirements. They can breed in fresh, brackish and saline water conditions and then travel to harbourage areas waiting for a host blood meal.

​

How we manage mosquitoes!

​

Only after a full site safety assessment has been completed, our service technician will apply an approved insecticide spray to all harbourage areas including under eaves, walls, patios foliage & shrubs, where mosquitoes harbour during the day for protection from the wind and heat.

​

We utilise motorised back pack sprayers (pictured to the right), designed to deliver ultra low volumes (ULV) of residual spray to harborage areas. 

​

This treatment will usually last up to 4-8 weeks per application
