Mosquitoes
Benowa Pest Control

Mosquito Facts

Here are few facts about mosquitoes that you may want to discover around Benowa:

• Mosquitoes existed since the dinosaur era which was 400 million years ago
• It only takes six to ten times for egg to develop to adults
• The usually breed in still water at which larvae feed and develop
• They seem to be attracted to dark colours
• Mosquitoes will ordinarily bite you at dawn or dusk – as they are for the most part nocturnal. That’s the point at which their inner clocks tell them it is feeding time
• Mosquitoes love humidity and that they are fond of lactic acid, and might have a tendency to bite people who had simply exercised
• Larger people often draw in more mosquitoes since they create higher carbon dioxide and lactic acid

Avoiding Mosquito Bites

These are many different ways which can prevent us from suffering from the illness that mosquitoes can bring around Benowa;

• Avoid bright colours – do not wear bright colours or use strong scents such as perfumes and deodorants as such attract insects
• Reduce exposed skin – place on long sleeves, trousers, hats and footwear
• Use insect repellent sprays – on vulnerable skin and repelling candles or products when sitting.
• Avoid areas with water – keep away from moderate moving or still or rancid water
• Tuck pants into socks – when trekking through brush or difficult grass and keep away from brushing through long marijuana or trees

Top Tips to Keep Mosquitoes at Bay

Mozzies are known in Benowa Australia but that doesn’t mean we love it. There are a few matters you can do around your own home or business to save you from these pesky pests:

• Keep windows closed – After dark, keep windows and doors closed or block out the light with drapes
• Insect screens – fit fly displays to windows
• Clear up – clear up dead mosquitoes, as they provide a tasty snack for other pests like carpet beetles
• Cover water – cover water butts with well-fitted lids to reduce mosquito larvae in the water
• No standing water – don’t leave standing water (in watering cans by way of example) as this gives mosquitoes a place to breed
• Natural predators – if you have a garden pond, think about getting some goldfish as they will eat mosquito larvae
• Natural repellents – attempt natural repellents such as citronella, neem oil, peppermint oil, lemon lavender oil, witch hazel, garlic, lavender and vanilla extract
