Our Mosquito Control Process
Step 1: Free Property Inspection
We inspect your Ridgefield yard β standing water sources, landscaping, gutters, and resting areas β to identify mosquito breeding sites and harborage areas.
Step 2: Breeding Site Elimination
We identify and recommend elimination of standing water sources where mosquitoes breed (birdbaths, clogged gutters, flower pots, etc.).
Step 3: Larvicide Treatment
We apply larvicide to standing water that cannot be eliminated (ponds, drainage ditches) to kill mosquito larvae before they become adults.
Step 4: Adulticide Barrier Treatment
We apply a professional-grade barrier treatment to your yard β shrubs, trees, grass, and foundation β killing adult mosquitoes on contact and repelling new ones for weeks.
Step 5: Mosquito Traps (Optional)
We can install mosquito traps to capture and reduce adult mosquito populations.
Step 6: Ongoing Prevention
We recommend monthly barrier treatments during mosquito season (AprilβOctober) to maintain protection.
