How Long Before and Event Should You Spray for Mosquitoes?

Posted by Mosquito Squad

December 20, 2023

Residents of the Northeast understand the perks of living in the region. Seasons are clear-cut with warm summers, cold winters, vibrant falls, and gorgeous springs. For the foreseeable future, however, the balanced cycle of seasons is going to experience far more disruptions than in the past. Over the previous few years, there’s been a clear warming trend in our winters, and such a pattern is expected to continue, if not worsen. For some, warmer winters might seem like a good thing, and to be fair, mild winters are a welcome relief to the bone-chilling months we usually see here. Unfortunately, winter warmth comes with consequences. Mosquitoes, which are mainly seen during the spring and summer, are restricted by cold weather, but warmer winters are killing fewer of them. Furthermore, early springs allow them to jumpstart their breeding season. Sadly, outdoor activities are going to suffer due to exploding mosquito populations, especially life-defining events like graduations, reunions, and weddings. If you have a special event coming up this spring, don’t take chances and enlist the help of Mosquito Squad for your special event mosquito control. After our treatment is applied the day before your event, you are *guaranteed to see exceptional results!

Powerful Sudbury mosquito control

There are a lot of mosquito control options on the market, and many of them are highly ineffective. For example, the electronic mosquito control apparatuses you see at local stores might repel mosquitoes that come near you, but they don’t address the source of your mosquito problem. As a highly mobile insect, mosquitoes are able to evade inadequate mosquito control systems, and their evasive nature spells trouble for your special event. Not only will a swarm of these insects ruin the mood, but they can also inject you with dangerous diseases. Although we typically associate mosquito-borne diseases with the Asian and African continents, these illnesses are slowly but surely becoming more common in the United States. Zika virus, West-Nile virus, Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE), and other horrible diseases have been detected in mosquitoes in the Northeast, and a diagnosis for one of these is incredibly serious. EEE, for example, has a death rate of nearly 30%, and while the disease is rare, there’s no use taking risks. Especially not at an event that is meant to be joyous. If these insects can fly wherever they please, though, what treatments are actually effective?
