Your property likely has more shade, vegetation, moisture, and/or standing water. Any of these four things can give mosquitoes a place to breed and hide.
Retail mosquito sprays wear off quickly, giving the mosquitoes a chance to rebuild. They’re also usually not applied to areas where mosquitoes spend most of their time.
How fast do mosquito treatments work after application?
Within a few hours, barrier treatments dry on vegetation and start to work. Within a couple of days, you should see fewer mosquitoes because they will have come into direct physical contact with the product.
What is the most effective way to eliminate mosquito breeding areas?
Find and remove every source of standing water on your property. Mosquitoes breed exclusively in stagnant water, and eliminating it breaks the breeding cycle at the source.
