Backyard Mosquito Control to Protect Your Outdoor Sanctuary

Posted by Mosquito Squad

December 19, 2023

Every year, you spend time out in your yard to catch a breath of fresh air, host guests, and spend time with family. A yard creates so much potential for outdoor living, which is why these areas of our property are so meaningful. However, many yards never meet their potential due to the natural world around them. Outdoor living spaces, unfortunately, are subject not only to the elements but also to the pests that like to call your yard home. As you have probably noticed before, mosquitoes are perhaps the most common outdoor nuisance during the spring and summer, and this year is going to be no different.

Mosquitoes reproduce and expand their populations incredibly quickly, which is only fueled by the increasingly warm temperatures we’ve seen over the past decade. Climate conditions are slowly but steadily changing, and mosquitoes are benefitting directly. Mosquitoes are held in check by cold temperatures, but we are seeing spring warmth creep earlier and earlier, meaning mosquitoes have more time to reproduce. Furthermore, our falls are staying warmer for longer. An extended mosquito season means the outdoor living season will suffer, especially if you contract a mosquito-borne disease. That’s right, mosquitoes can transmit serious diseases like West Nile virus, Zika virus, and others that can have significant health consequences. Although the likelihood of contracting such a disease is relatively unlikely, implementing mosquito control is the best way to defend against potential infection, as well as significantly improve your outdoor living experience. At their best, mosquito bites are incredibly annoying, and at their worst, they can damage your health. Fortunately, Mosquito Squad has your back with backyard mosquito control that has seen unrivaled results!
