Mosquito Control Chesapeake

Chesapeake is the third largest city in Virginia, and is known for it’s proximity to the Great Dismal Swamp National Refuge, the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway, and the large number of wetlands that surround the area. There are many properties in the area that enjoy waterfront views, but along with the abundance of water in Chesapeake comes at the cost of attracting mosquitoes during the warmer months when humidity is at it’s peak. Mosquito Tek knows that Chesapeake homeowners and companies expect only the best in mosquito control results since mosquitoes can return quickly even after killing them, which is why eliminating them before they can grow into adults is part of every mosquito treatment plan that Mosquito Tek provides.

Eliminate Mosquitoes Where They Breed

Eliminating adult mosquitoes with insecticide sprays is only part of the comprehensive approach to mosquito extermination. It’s also important to prevent mosquitoes from developing into adults that can bite, and when you consider that mosquitoes are known carriers for deadly diseases such as West Nile Virus, then it’s vital that controlling mosquito populations is done the right way. The first step of the process is done by treating the areas in which they breed using larvicides where standing water exists naturally. The larvicides will kill the larvae before they turn into adults, which can then lay more eggs. In addition to treating any standing water with larvicides, a technician will look for any containers that may be collecting standing water and empty them so as to reduce any potential breeding areas. The larvicides are completely safe to people, fish, and animals, but will kill mosquitoes for up to 30 days.

Conventional and Organic Mosquito Treatments

Mosquito Tek offers two mosquito treatment options that are highly effective. Each option is completely safe to use around your family, pets, plant life, and any wildlife, but is deadly to mosquitoes. You can select whichever option is right for you when you schedule your appointment, or you can decide once you’ve met with the technician who can explain the benefits of both types of treatment plans:

1. The most powerful choice is the conventional mosquito treatment plan that uses Talstar, a full-strength mosquito insecticide that is one of the most effective options on the market. It is known for the long-lasting mosquito barrier that it provides, and is effective for up to three weeks. Although this option is highly effective, it is still safe to use around everything except mosquitoes.
2. The safest choice is the organic mosquito control plan using Essentria, which is an all-natural insecticide that is effective at killing mosquitoes, while still being 100% safe for your plants, bee populations, native wildlife and anything that is sensitive to insecticides. The organic option needs to be applied every two weeks, and has no aquatic setback.

Affordable Flea and Tick Control Options

Although most people contact Mosquito Tek for their mosquito control services, they are also known for eliminating fleas and ticks. As an added value to your mosquito service, you also have the option of adding the flea and tick control upgrade that will also exterminate all the fleas and ticks on your property. Many customers choose this option since ticks are known for carrying diseases such as Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever. You can choose to get the flea and tick spraying service either as an upgrade to your mosquito control plan, or if you’re not getting a mosquito treatment, you can choose to purchase it as an individual service at the everyday low rates.
