When Should You Implement Alpharetta Mosquito Control?

Posted by Mosquito Squad

December 20, 2023

As we bask in the warmth of the summer sun, we must remember that we aren't the only ones enjoying the favorable weather. Mosquito populations are experiencing a rapid surge now that warm weather is here to stay, making it essential to be proactive in our efforts to defend against these pesky invaders. Unsettlingly, the warming climate has been a boon for these creatures in recent years, allowing them to emerge earlier in the spring and vanish later in the fall and winter.

Mosquitoes, some of which are known carriers of hazardous diseases, have become an escalating threat throughout the U.S., including in our region. Historically, our part of the world sees a relatively low incidence of mosquito-borne diseases in humans. However, this pattern is evolving. We now see a rise in diseases like Zika virus, Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE), and West Nile virus in Georgia within mosquito populations in our region, making mosquito control more critical than ever. Yes, the odds of contracting one of these diseases are pretty low but contracting a single one can cause life-altering consequences, making defending against them hugely important. Staying vigilant is essential this time of year, and we’re here to help!

Defend Your Outdoor Gatherings with Alpharetta Mosquito Control

While the buzzing of mosquitoes in your yard might seem like a minor annoyance, the diseases we’ve mentioned above might make you reconsider your stance on mosquitoes as a non-threat. For instance, while it's quite rare, EEE is among several mosquito-borne diseases with potentially life-altering effects. This disease causes brain swelling (among other damaging symptoms), and tragically, about 30% of people who contract it succumb to it. While this is a severe case, no mosquito-borne disease should be taken lightly, as each one can have lasting consequences for those unfortunate enough to be infected. Why take the risk? Mosquito control provides an efficient solution to this large-scale problem, and Mosquito Squad has all the answers you need!

When the warm weather rolls around, you should be free to enjoy your outdoor living spaces—be it your pool, patio, deck, outdoor kitchen, or yard—without the constant worry of mosquito bites. For peace of mind and genuine safety, it's advisable to consult an expert for your mosquito control needs.
