They’re Coming…
Posted by Mosquito SquadFebruary 22, 2011
Yes, we just made it through another snowstorm and it feels like Spring will never make it here, but it’s never too early to think about what you can do to protect your kids and pets from mosquitoes and their related diseases.
Did you know that one female mosquito can lay up to 300 eggs at one time? If conditions are right, these eggs could become adult mosquitoes in just over a week. Immediately, they look for mates to continue breeding. All it takes is a mate and a little blood to lay another raft of eggs.
If that one female hatches 150 females, who each hatch 150 females, who each hatch 150 females…you can have over one-billion mosquitoes from that single female in about a month!
Mosquito Squad of Waukesha County offers seasonal mist packages, event sprays, as well as misting systems all designed to control the mosquito population so you can enjoy your backyard or special event without the bites! No need to use mosquito repellent, traps, or ineffective citronella candles. Call or email for more information.
