Mosquitos Control
Croydon

Mosquito Facts

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

• Mosquitos existed since the dinosaur period which was 400 million years ago
• They can develop from eggs to adults in only 6 to 10 days
• They are observed near water-abundant areas wherein their larvae feed and enlarge
• They seem to be attracted 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 are attracted to heat and they locate lactic acid alluring, thus, would tend to bite people who had just exercised
• Larger people tend to attract more mosquitos because they generate higher carbon dioxide and lactic acid

Avoiding Mosquito Bites

These are various ways which can prevent us from suffering from the illness that mosquitos may bring;

• Avoid bright colours – don’t wear bright colours or use powerful scents such as perfumes and deodorants as these attract insects.
• Reduce vulnerable skin – wear long sleeves, trousers, footwear and hats
• Use insect repellent sprays on uncovered skin and repelling candles or products when sitting
• Avoid areas with water – stay away from moderate moving or still or stale water
• Tuck trousers into socks – when hiking through brush or rough grass, avoid brushing through long grass or bushes

Top Tips to Keep Mosquitos at Bay

Mozzies are synonymous with Australia but that doesn’t mean we love it. There are a few things you can do around your own home or business to save you from those pesky pests:

• Keep home windows shut – after dark, maintain windows and doors shut or block out the mild with drapes
• Insect screens – fit fly screens to windows
• Clear up – clear up dead mosquitos, as they supply a tasty snack for other pests like carpet beetles
• Spread water – cover water butts with all-around fitted tops to counteract mosquito hatchlings in the water
• No stagnant water – don’t leave standing water (in watering cans for instance ) as this supplies mosquitos a place to breed
• Natural predators – if you have a garden pond, consider obtaining some goldfish as they will eat mosquito larvae
• Natural repellents – attempt natural repellents such as citronella, neem oil, peppermint oil, lemon eucalyptus oil, witch hazel, lavender, garlic.
