Mosquito Control

3 Reasons to Treat for Mosquitos Early

Warmer weather is approaching, which means lawn pests will soon follow. In Lansing, MI, spring provides the perfect breeding ground for mosquitos. So, it’s important for homeowners to take preventative measures. Controlling these pests with ArborLawn is easy, but you’ll want to treat for mosquitos early, and here’s why.

1. Prevent Them from Hatching

Mosquitos lay their eggs in standing water, which can be found in birdbaths, flower pots, clogged gutters, or any other containers that collect water around your home. Treating these areas early in the season kills off any current larvae and prevents new ones from hatching. This will significantly reduce the mosquito population around your home and decrease the chances of getting bitten.

2. Protect Your Health

Mosquitos are known to carry diseases such as West Nile virus, Zika virus, and Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE). Unfortunately, these diseases have serious consequences, including fever, headaches, joint pain, and, in severe cases, neurological damage. By treating your lawn for mosquitoes early and reducing their numbers, you lower the risk of exposure to these harmful pathogens.

3. More Enjoyable Backyards

Whether you’re hosting a backyard barbecue, gardening in your yard, or simply relaxing on your patio, nothing ruins outdoor activities faster than swarms of buzzing mosquitos. By treating for them early in the season and maintaining regular treatments throughout the summer months, you can create a more comfortable outdoor environment for yourself and your family.
