Not only is it possible, but it's easier than you might realize. Absolute Pest Control technicians have extensive experience clearing residential properties of mosquitoes, and now we want to help you. Please read our guide below to learn how to curb this problem, and reach out to us when you want the best pest control in Albany.
About The Mosquito Life Cycle
The mosquito life cycle is short; from an egg to an adult dying, only a few months pass. There are four distinct phases; egg, pupa, larva, and adult. For the first three stages, the mosquito stays in or near water, only leaving once they achieve adulthood and seeking water again to lay more eggs.
Effective mosquito control will target mosquitoes in all four stages to ensure the breaking of the reproduction cycle and the infestation ends. Absolute Pest Control takes a comprehensive approach to pest removal. When you hire us, we'll develop a treatment plan that best fits your situation and provides the best solution.
Mosquitoes Are Considered A Public Health Risk
Mosquitoes in Albany are a health hazard because they can transmit a number of serious human diseases to people. A list of diseases caused by mosquitoes includes Zika virus, West Nile virus, dengue, malaria, and yellow fever. These diseases can cause severe complications and even prove fatal in extreme cases.
Once thought to be erotic many of these diseases occur only in certain climates. But, according to the World Health Organization, more than 50% of the world's population is now at risk from mosquito-borne diseases. That's why quick, professional pest control is the best way to keep yourself safe from mosquitoes.
