Mosquito Facts

About 3,000 species of mosquitoes have been identified on a worldwide basis. Approximately 150 are known to exist in North America

There are approximately 25 known “human nuisance species” of mosquitoes

Most adult mosquitoes only have a life span of 2-4 weeks

Only female mosquitoes bite

Mosquitoes are very effective at reproducing

- attracting, trapping and killing just one female mosquito at the start of mosquito season can prevent the birth of up to 25,000 more mosquitoes that season alone!

Controlling Mosquitoes

In addition to properly installing and using a SkeeterVac® device, you can reduce mosquito breeding around your home significantly by reducing the amount of water that is stagnating on your property. Be aware that mosquitoes can and will develop in any puddle or pool of water that lasts more than 4 days.

Dispose of cans, plastic containers, pots, or similar water-holding containers that have accumulated on your property

Drill holes in the bottom of containers that you must leave out of doors – trash cans, recycling bins, etc

Clean clogged roof gutters on an annual basis

Turn over plastic wading pools when not in use

Turn over wheelbarrows, empty planters, or children’s toys when not in use

Don’t allow water to stagnate in birdbaths

Aerate ornamental pools or stock them with fish

Clean and chlorinate swimming pools that are not being used. Don’t forget that mosquitoes breed in the water that collects on swimming pool covers

Use landscaping features or drainage tools to eliminate standing water that collects in low spots on your property
