Did you know that the mosquito is the deadliest animal in the world? It’s true. They carry many diseases, including West Nile virus and the rare, potentially fatal Eastern equine encephalitis, of which Massachusetts has the highest rate. Even the Zika virus — Tewksbury Wicked Local has written about Zika in our area.

Tewksbury mosquito control is essential for your family’s health and well-being, including your pets.

Sure, there’s a Central Massachusetts Mosquito Control Project (CMMCP) that works to protect the public from mosquitoes, but their biggest concern is open bodies of water and other common areas such as parks and streets – not the private yards of its residents.  The trucks that drive around at night with the fogging spray might reach your driveway and the front of your property, but this method will not help with Tewksbury mosquito control in your backyard, or even near your front door.  Simply put — to rely on a municipal program to protect you, your loved ones, and guests from mosquitoes and the diseases they carry is not a safe assumption.  Many businesses and municipalities treat for mosquito control, but Tewksbury home mosquito treatment is essential to mitigating the spread of deadly mosquito-borne illnesses.

Consider a time-released Tewksbury Mosquito Control treatment.

A time-released formula is a wise choice for proper at-home mosquito control.  The formula that the CMMCP uses eliminates bugs on contact, which is only half the battle when it comes to Tewksbury mosquito control.  To stage a powerful front against mosquitoes and the illnesses they carry, at-home mosquito treatment should eliminate pests on contact, but also continue working after the initial application.  A time-released, micro-encapsulated formula from a reputable mosquito control company will protect your yard for up to three weeks between treatments, eliminating up to 90% of the mosquito population around your home!  In that three weeks, the municipal mosquito control fogging trucks will need to be deployed multiple times, as their treatment is not time released.  Purchasing seasonal mosquito control is one of the smartest investments you can make in your home and for your family each year.

 

Automatic misting systems and all-natural treatments are also effective methods of mosquito control in Tewksbury.

An automatic mosquito control misting system can be programmed to spray at particular intervals, or on-command, at your discretion.  A professional installation of an automatic misting system is a very convenient method of mosquito control, where refilling and system maintenance will be the responsibility of the mosquito control company.

Even though EPA-registered mosquito control products are available in Tewksbury, some residents might be averse to using them.  It is with those folks in mind, that all-natural barrier mosquito treatments have been made available.  With a time-released, all-natural formula, you can expect to see a 65-80% reduction in mosquitoes and other yard pests!

No matter your choice in professional treatment method or product, protecting your family, visitors, and pets from mosquito-borne diseases truly is imperative.
