What makes Dave passionate about mosquitoes?

Gone are the days in Central Mass, where extremely cold winters eliminated lingering mosquitoes. For quite some time, the Northeast has been experiencing shorter and milder winters, which allows mosquitoes to overwinter beneath leaf litter and inside other protected spaces. Environmental conditions are encouraging more mosquitoes to move into the area. More mosquitoes and mosquito species mean a bigger threat to Central Mass residents.

The threat lies in the potential for a bite from a disease-carrying mosquito. Diseases, like Zika, West Nile, and Eastern equine encephalitis are present in Massachusetts mosquito populations. Now more than ever, we must be vigilant in our efforts to protect ourselves, our families, and our pets from mosquito-borne illnesses.

Professional mosquito control will help keep your family protected.
