Our Mosquito Control Process

01

Property Assessment

We identify standing water sources, dense vegetation, shaded resting areas, and other conditions that support mosquito populations.

02

Source Reduction Recommendations

We advise on eliminating or treating standing water — a critical complement to chemical barrier treatment.

03

Barrier Spray Treatment

A fine mist of EPA-registered insecticide is applied to foliage, ground cover, and shaded resting areas where mosquitoes hide.

04

Scheduled Follow-ups

Treatments are scheduled every 3–4 weeks throughout the season to maintain protection as the previous treatment breaks down.

Mosquito Control FAQ for New York City Homeowners

How often should New York City homeowners get mosquito control?
Given New York City's harsh winters with freeze-thaw cycles damaging masonry, most homeowners benefit from mosquito control at least once a year. Winter ice dam formation on flat roofs often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in New York City most need mosquito control?
Brownstones and townhouses and Pre-war apartment buildings are the most common home types in New York City and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
How effective is mosquito barrier spray?
Professional barrier treatments reduce mosquito populations by 75–90% for 3–4 weeks. Effectiveness depends on rainfall (which degrades treatment) and how quickly populations recolonize from neighboring properties.
Is mosquito spray safe for children and pets?
When applied properly and allowed to dry (typically 30–60 minutes), EPA-registered barrier sprays are safe for people and pets. Organic (garlic and essential oil based) options are available for extra peace of mind.
What about mosquito misting systems?
Automatic misting systems spray at timed intervals (typically at dusk and dawn) using fine nozzles installed around the yard perimeter. They provide consistent, hands-free protection and are popular for large properties and entertainment areas.
Will treating my yard help if my neighbors have standing water?
Barrier spray kills mosquitoes that enter your yard, even from neighboring properties. Source reduction on your property significantly boosts effectiveness.
