Treatment Questions
-
Our treatment interrupts the life-cycle of mosquito, which is about 21 days.
-
Absolutely! Of course it would benefit everyone if the whole street had treatments done, which is why we offer great discounts for this, but our method has outstanding results either way. The invisible barrier we create around your property eliminates and repels all types of pests, including mosquitoes. Some mosquitoes only travel a short distance from their birth place and once their life cycle is disrupted, it makes it difficult for them to replenish the population.

Of course! We love animals and we would never put your pets at risk. The pesticide industry has come a long way since the days of highly toxic chemicals. We use pesticides that have the least amount of toxicity to humans, pets and other mammals and birds. We also always notify you when we have treated your yard so that everyone, pets included, can stay indoors while the treatment dries.
In fact, your yard will be much safer for your pets!
With regular treatments your pets can romp the yard freely without worry of fleas or ticks.

It is best for everyone if the bees are not harmed. Avoiding high pollenation areas and using chemicals that cannot be carried back to the hive are a few of the steps we take to ensure we do not harm the bee population. We also always avoid flowering and edible plants, as required by federal law.

We often hear from people who dislike mosquitoes but worry about the impact the pest industry has on our eco-system. As a pesticide license holder with many years of experience and hours of continuing education in the field, we are happy to share some facts about the pesticide industry and our service. To start, the industry is heavily regulated and we must all adhere to strict standards from the state and EPA. The product we use to treat for mosquitoes is a water based chemical derived from the chrysanthemum flower. This product is also the least readily absorbed-through-the skin product on the market and has never shown any signs of health issues in children or adults. It also is the least likely to leach in to the ground water and is the least harmful to birds. All pesticides are toxic. So is Windex and cedar oil for that matter. The trick here is that we are using the product properly and safely.
Additionally, we are not allowed to use a fogger to apply the product when winds are over 10mph in order to eliminate drift. When in the hands of an experienced professional who is abiding by the heavily regulated laws of the product label, there is very minimal risk of significant harm to the ecosystem.

Service Questions
-
On an average yard, our technician will be able to perform a quality application in about 15 to 20 minutes.
-
Once the chemical dries you are good to go! A specific time is hard to say because the drying process is affected by many environmental conditions. To be safe, during humid months, we like to give it about one hour before venturing into the great outdoors.
-
In our area the mosquito season runs from April to October. The chemical that is applied kills mosquitoes on contact and can last approximately 21 days. Over the winter, there is an optional service available that treats mosquitoes larvae at critical stage of their life cycle.
-
We do have a little paperwork. However, our paperwork is simply a service agreement that locks in your rate and explains some details about the treatment. You can of course cancel at any time, or even skip a treatment if needed.
