Written by Viking Pest Control | July 28, 2019

You trudged through the freezing cold winter months and are now ready for backyard barbecues and days at the beach, but wait! Swarms of mosquitoes chase you out of the sun, off the sand, and back into the house while the ribs get cold and the drinks get warm. Don’t let summer slip by—bite back with mosquito pest control services.

What Do Mosquitoes Do?

Of course, we know that mosquitoes bite and make us itch, but they can have a much greater impact than simple discomfort and annoyance.

There are over 3,000 species of mosquitoes worldwide, and they transmit more diseases than any other creature. The three primary species, anopheles, culex, and aedes, are known to transmit such diseases as:

  • Malaria
  • West Nile
  • Lyme Disease
  • Elephantiasis
  • Encephalitis
  • Yellow Fever
  • Dengue Fever

What Can You Do?

You can help maintain some of the comforts of a warm weather evening by doing some of your own mosquito control. Some simple steps you can take when it comes to prevention:

  • Eliminate or reduce standing water
  • Keep grass trimmed and fill holes
  • Keep bushes and shrubs trimmed back
  • Install bat houses
  • Plant natural repellents like citronella
