Your Guide to Lake Country Vacation Home Mosquito Control

When you’re spending time in Lake Country, you’re here to enjoy your summer – not fight pests all day and night. However, some vacation homes often go untouched for weeks or months, so they’re often an easy target for pests looking for a quiet place to settle in. We want to help you enjoy all that the season has to offer with our vacation home mosquito control solutions!

1. Do I Really Need Mosquito Control for My Vacation Home?

The answer is a resounding yes! For one thing, what kind of vacation can you really have if, rather than relaxing, you’re constantly fighting off mosquitoes? Plus, the area is prone to heat and humidity, which accelerates mosquito breeding. Within just hours of rainfall, even the smallest bit of water collected in an outdoor pot or a puddle can become a mosquito nursery. 

This is especially true for waterfront vacation homes – mosquito control can make all the difference! So whether you’re right on the shore of Lake Kerr or whether your vacation home is a little further away in Gasburg, ourMosquito Squad vacation home mosquito control can really be a game changer.

2. What Kind of Treatment Should I Consider?

Ourtraditional barrier treatment is a favorite for vacation homes and can reduce mosquitoes by up to 85-90% within 21 days. We also offer anatural alternative that uses a combination of great-smelling essential oils to accomplish the same results. We focus on spots where mosquitoes like to hang out, like under decks, around standing water, and in shaded areas, in order to get the best possible results. Plus, you don’t have to worry about juggling schedules or interrupting your vacation – we’ll take care of booking regular treatments as part of our convenient subscription plan.

3. What About Other Pests?

Mosquitoes tend not to be the only uninvited guests. From Bracey to Cartersville to Buffalo Junction, vacation homes are magnets for spiders, ticks, ants, and fleas, and the problem can sometimes be worse for those that are directly lakeside.

That’s why we offerYard Defender andHome Shield as options to expand your vacation home pest control coverage. These packages can address dozens of common pests for long-term relief, inside and out.

4. Can You Help When It’s Time to Close the House Up?

As summer wraps up and you’re prepping to close your vacation home for the season, it’s important to take steps that will ensure pests don’t move in once you’re gone. We offer vacation home pest control services designed to help prevent overwintering bugs from settling into quiet corners. 

Before you close up and return to your real life, we recommend:

• Scheduling a final treatment in early fall
• Sealing cracks or gaps in your home’s exterior
• Storing firewood away from the home and cleaning up yard debris
• Clearing out gutters to prevent pooled water

These simple steps go a long way toward making next year’s opening a lot easier.
