Mosquito Pro Georgia FAQ

Commonly asked questions from our customers. If you're new to using an outdoor pest control service, we're sure you have a lot of questions to ask. If you'd like to know anything not listed below, give us a call at 678-900-6110

*How long does it take to do the barrier treatment and how long will it last?

A typical treatment will average about 15-25 minutes to finish. Larger yards will take longer to treat. Each treatment lasts approximately 21 days, at which time we will need to treat your yard again.

Do you spray for mosquitoes in the grass?

Spraying grass during a treatment will depend on the type of service you prefer. If you are only looking for mosquito control, then we generally do not treat the grass because mosquitoes don't shelter there. Our goal in doing a pre-service walk of the property is to seek out the "hot spots" where mosquitoes are resting, breeding. The most common areas to find mosquitoes during the day include: the underside of the leaves of dense/shrubby plants, under decks, and in damp shady areas around the property.

Our standard treatment primarily targets mosquitoes. Flies, gnats, chiggers, and no-see-ums are also affected by the mosquito treatment, but the residual attribute of the product is not effective at long-term suppression of these insects, and it is only a positive side effect of the mosquito treatment.

What products are being used in my yard and are they safe? What about for my plants/pond/pets/kids?

Our primary product used in our mosquito treatment is a barrier spray product with micro encapsulated release, mixed with a synthetic form of pyrethrins called pyrethroids. Pyrethrins are the natural byproduct of the Chrysanthemum flower. Synthetic pyrethroids have a similar chemical structure as the pyrethrins and are used in numerous commercial products such as household insecticides, pet shampoos and sprays, and even lice shampoos. The products themselves are water-based, mixed in water and will not harm plants, but will kill mosquitoes on contact

All of our products are EPA-registered.

Is there a natural treatment option?

YES. We offer options for customers who would like a natural solution. This application consists of a blend of essential oils and will eliminate mosquitoes on contact and then becomes a repellent once dry. This solutions can leave a mixture of essential oils odor in your yard for one to two hours after application.

Does anyone need to be home when the yard is treated? How will I know if the treatment was done if I'm not home?

No. As long as your gate is unlocked and your pets are inside, our technician can treat. Our trained professionals will obtain any information pertinent to your location when you sign up, such as locked gates, pets, and any specific instructions you request.

Your technician will leave a door hanger upon completion of your treatment so you will know your yard has been serviced. Information on this door hanger will include the date and time of service as well as any comments or helpful suggestion we may have to help you keep your yard as uninviting as possible for mosquitoes.

What if it rains after my yard has been treated?

As long as your yard has had adequate time to dry after the application of your treatment (20-30 minutes depending on temperature and humidity), rain should not impact the effectiveness of your service. However, our Mosquito Pro Guarantee ensures that if you are not completely satisfied with the effectiveness of our treatment, contact us within 14 days of your service* and we will schedule a time to reassess your property and if needed, provide a booster application at no additional cost.

How much does it cost?

Each property is unique and we customize each barrier application to successfully treat your mosquito problem. We price our applications based on the size and density of foliage of your property and the amount of product that we will need to use. Feel free to contact us any time for a free quote.

Do you service commercial accounts?

YES. Our barrier treatments are a great solution for many commercial businesses such as restaurants with patios, parks, campgrounds, public pools and playgrounds, sports fields, daycares, outdoor wedding venues, schools and more.

What do we do to protect the pollinators, particularly the honey bee?

We take pollinator protection seriously. Our certified technicians are all trained on using a Bee Protection Management Program which incorporates three key focus areas: understanding of each customer's property, recognized professional application procedures and the type of products we use.

The city has a mosquito truck come through and spray, what makes your service better?

This type of city service is designed to generally reduce the mosquito population and is not specific to your property, or needs, and will only kill mosquitoes within a close proximity to their truck It does not address the breeding grounds specific to your property.

Our technicians are trained to provide a custom treatment for each individual situation and customers property. They will thoroughly inspect and walk your property each visit and treat it with a methodology specific to your yard.

Do you treat indoor pest problems as well?

At Mosquito Pro Pest Control we focuses on outdoor mosquito control services. However, our perimeter barrier program is designed to do just that, to create a barrier around your home and yard. During this service, our certified and trained technicians will start with a thorough inspection to identify any areas where mosquitoes could harbor, take shelter and lay eggs. This allows our technicians to treat the property effectively. By focusing on outdoor treatment zones and adding a barrier of defense to the perimeter of your property, we reduce the need for indoor exposure.

How long before I can go in the yard after you have sprayed?

After a barrier treatment, you need to ensure that the product has completely dried before going outside. Depending on outdoor temperatures and humidity, we recommend a minimum of 20-30 minutes. Once the product has completely dried, you and your family may safely enjoy your deck, pool and yard.

Will the treatment affect my fish pond or swimming pool?

Pyrethroids are hazardous to fish. As a result, our technicians are trained to avoid fish ponds when providing you with a barrier treatment. Our products do not affect swimming pools; nevertheless, our technicians are also trained to not allow the spray to contact the pool water.

How does rain affect the treatment?

Rain is not a large concern because of the residual attributes of our products. The products are designed to last, so once dry, only a fraction of the product can be physically removed other than by the natural breakdown of the product. We will not spray in the rain, but we can spray soon thereafter.
