The battle between mankind vs mosquito has been going on since the very beginning of our existence. Actually, mosquitoes were here way before us — it’s estimated that they’ve been around for 210 million years! It’s hard to believe that we haven’t been able to win the war against the deadliest animal in the world but in 2005, Mosquito Squad came along and made that battle much easier to fight. When we created our signature barrier treatment, we created an unprecedented service and product that allowed homeowners to eliminate nearly 90% of mosquitoes in their yards, for up to three weeks at a time.
When the CDC reported in May 2018 that diseases from mosquitoes and ticks have more than tripled since 2004, suddenly it was a wakeup call to many people. More people realized that mosquitoes weren’t just annoying things that left you with itchy bites in the summertime, they were more dangerous than originally thought. West Nile virus, the most common mosquito-borne disease in the United States, is once again here in Massachusetts, and while Eastern Equine encephalitis is relatively rare and much more serious, Massachusetts has a higher concentration of cases than anywhere else.
The most effective way to protect yourself from mosquito-borne illnesses at home isn’t by misting yourself head to toe with bug repellent or lighting a citronella candle. It’s by avoiding mosquitoes all together. With Mosquito Squad’s Woburn mosquito control, we’ll eliminate nearly 90% of the mosquitoes in your yard for up to 21 days at a time.
Three weeks at a time? How does Mosquito Squad’s Woburn mosquito control work, exactly?
You’re probably thinking, “How can Mosquito Squad guarantee that kind of effectiveness for that long?”. We first eliminate and treat any standing water and other mosquito-breeding sites on your property, which automatically eliminates any larvae and stops eggs from ever hatching. This is a key part of halting the life cycle of mosquitoes in your yard.
Then, we distribute our specially-formulated, EPA-registered barrier treatment. There’s a method to the order in which we apply the treatment, essentially working from the perimeter inward, but don’t worry — we avoid flowers and other things that bees like to pollinate. Our technicians are highly-trained and licensed, and we treat safety as a priority.We treat everything (aside from the aforementioned bee-friendly plants) from trees, bushes, leaves, woodpiles, lawn ornaments, even your deck and below it.
Our Woburn mosquito control treatment eliminates adult mosquitoes on contact, but after it dries (about 30 minutes) it slowly keeps releasing the active mosquito-eliminating treatment. Our treatment adheres to everything it was applied to, but don’t worry, it’s odorless and colorless, so you won’t even notice it’s there. Any time a mosquito even lands on anything in your yard with the dried solution on it, it will be eliminated. And yes, our treatment really lasts for 21 days at a time.
After those three weeks, we advise re-treating your property. For proactive protection throughout the season and worry-free summers, check out our seasonal programs. You’ll be able to take back your yard and enjoy your summers outside with your family and friends like you’re supposed to, without worrying about mosquitoes or any mosquito-born diseases.
