The 3 P’s of Season Protection

The barrier spray is the heart and soul of what we do at Mosquito Squad. Each barrier spray kills adult mosquitoes and ticks on contact, but it doesn’t stop there. It truly creates a “barrier” around your yard – for 21 days following the spray any incoming mosquitoes that attempt to take refuge in your foliage will be knocked dead.

The reduction in mosquitoes in your yard will be nothing short of dramatic.

Hatching cycles, however, can be difficult to predict and will occur throughout the season.  Waiting until mosquitoes have become a serious problem in your yard may mean having to lose ground in the battle for your backyard.

And while you may notice diminishing numbers of mosquitoes during August and September, it is important to note that the mosquitoes you see during that time frame have a much higher probability of carrying West Nile Virus. That’s very important in a place like Aberdeen, SD, which has the distinction of having the highest incidence of WNV per capita of any city in the nation.

Mosquito Squad's service is safe for your children, your pets, and your plants.

The best way to protect your outdoor living space regardless of when the mosquitoes decide to strike is by signing up in advance for a complete season of barrier sprays. It is best on three fronts: protection, priority and price.

So what exactly are the 3 P’s?

PROTECTION

We at Mosquito Squad will monitor the conditions and begin spraying for our season customers around mid-May – this is one of the primary benefits of the season package. Even if mosquitoes are not yet out in full force, you are truly creating a “barrier” around your outdoor living space. As soon as they begin to strike in large numbers, your property will have the protection in place to begin killing the vast majority of incoming mosquitoes.

When your neighbors are grumbling indoors, you’ll be enjoying the summer weather on your patio.

PRIORITY

Another major benefit of purchasing a season package is that it effectively makes you a priority customer. Our trained technicians will be out at least every 21 days to update your barrier spray, ensuring that you always have the highest level of protection against mosquitoes, ticks and other outdoor pests. You will always have top priority on our schedules.

We definitely value our single spray customers and will schedule them for a barrier spray as soon as possible after they call. There will be a period of time, however, between you recognizing the problem and Mosquito Squad’s arrival.

PRICE

The last major benefit to connecting with Mosquito Squad early is the cost savings. Locking in your season in advance can save you hundreds over the single spray price over the course of one summer.

Signing up for a full season of sprays ensures you the best value Mosquito Squad has to offer. Plus, we back every barrier spray with a 100% satisfaction, money-back guarantee.

The only thing you have to lose are the mosquitoes!

Mosquitoes in Winter?

A wild story from CBS New York came out this week. Apparently there is a new breed of mosquito plaguing the City that Never Sleeps – one that breeds in the humid warmth of the city’s sewer system year round.

This particular breed, then, comes into people’s homes through cracks and vents at bites at night.

“They trapped 150 mosquitoes in the basement in a 24-hour period coming from underground and into the basement and up in the house through the air vents and it’s the same story as the other brownstones on this block,” one homeowner told CBS New York.

This breed is also particularly blood thirsty.

“They’re hungry,” said one resident, pointing out bites on her child. “Three on this ear. One on his cheek. One on his neck, and there are some on his arms going up his arm.”

Luckily we’re in the clear for mosquitoes for now in our part of the country. However, it is never too early to begin planning on how you will protect your family next year from dangerous outdoor pests. Contact Mosquito Squad today or take a look at a previous post that highlights the 3 P’s of Striking Early: Protection, Priority, Price.

Strike Early

With winter right around the corner, if you’re like me, you’re probably more concerned about how much snow you’re going to shovel this winter than battling mosquitoes in the spring.

There are definite benefits, however, to start planning early how you will attack the nuisance and danger of mosquitoes and ticks in your yard next summer.

The barrier spray is the heart and soul of what we do at Mosquito Squad. Each barrier spray kills adult mosquitoes and ticks on contact, but it doesn’t stop there. It truly creates a “barrier” around your yard – for 21 days following the spray any incoming mosquitoes that attempt to feed off your greenery will be knocked dead.

The reduction in mosquitoes in your yard will be nothing short of dramatic.

Hatching cycles, however, can be difficult to predict and will occur throughout the season.  Waiting until mosquitoes have become a serious problem in your yard may mean having to lose ground in the battle for your backyard.

Mosquito Squad's service is safe for kids, for pets, and for your plants.
