Mosquitos Control
South Coogee

Mosquito Facts

Here are some facts that you might want to know about these nasty little insects:

• They existed along with the dinosaurs 400 million years ago
• They can develop from eggs to adults in only six to ten days
• The usually breed in still water where larvae feed and develop
• They seem to be drawn to dark colours
• Mosquitos will normally bite you at dawn or dusk – as they are mostly nocturnal and that’s when their internal clocks tell them it is feeding time
• Mosquitos love humidity and that they are fond of lactic acid, and would have a tendency to bite people who’d simply exercised
• Bigger individuals often draw in more mosquitos since they produce higher carbon dioxide and lactic acid

Avoiding Mosquito Bites

It’s easy to keep mosquitos off once you are armed with a little knowledge. There are simple ways you can keep secure and avoid some of the health risks related to mosquito and midge bites:

• Avoid bright colours – do not wear splendid hues or use powerful fragrances, for example, scents and antiperspirants as these pull in insects
• Reduce exposed skin – put on long sleeves, trousers, hats and footwear
• Use insect repellent sprays — on exposed skin and repelling products or candles when sitting
• Avoid areas with water – hold clear of slow-moving or stagnant or still water
• Tuck trousers into socks – when hiking through brush or rough grass and avoid brushing through long grass or bushes

Top Tips to Keep Mosquitos at Bay

Mozzies are synonymous with Australia however that does not mean we like it. There are a couple of things you can do around your house or business to avoid these nasty nuisances:

• Keep home windows shut – after dark, maintain windows and doors shut or block out the light with curtains
• Insect screens – fit fly displays to windows
• Clear up – clear up dead mosquitos, as they provide a tasty snack for other pests such as carpet beetles
• Cover water – cover water butts with nicely equipped lids to save you mosquito larvae within the water
• No standing water – do not leave standing water (in watering cans by way of instance ) as this gives mosquitos a place to breed
• Natural predators – if you have a garden pond, consider getting some goldfish as they will eat mosquito larvae
• Natural repellents – utilise natural repellents, by way of instance, citronella, neem oil, peppermint oil, lemon eucalyptus oil, witch hazel, garlic, vanilla and lavender focus
