Tick and Mosquito Management

Mosquitos are not only a nuisance pest, but occasionally can transmit viruses to people and animals. This plan targets all U.S. mosquito species, aiming to eradicate and maintain low populations through monthly treatments during their season. A JP McHale Pest technician will inspect your property and apply appropriate liquid and/or granular treatments outdoors based on weather conditions.

Tips for Reducing Mosquito Problems:

• When clearing foliage and debris (i.e. eaves, fallen limbs, etc.) avoid the piling of material debris for long periods.
• Keep shrub foliage trimmed around the home.
• Remove standing water caused by landscape depressions or drainage by filling with dirt or sand.
• Recycle or dispose of tin cans or other artificial water containers.
• When removing tree stumps, where possible, fill with dirt prior to the development of standing water.
• Manage weeds in areas where adult mosquitoes congregate.
• Remove old tires when they are found throughout a property.
