Why Mosquitoes Keep Coming Back in Utah (and How to Finally Win)
Posted by Mosquito Squad

If you’ve ever thought, “Didn’t we already treat mosquitoes this year?” you’re not alone and you’re not imagining things - mosquito season doesn’t let up, even when you think it’s over. Utah mosquito season doesn’t follow a strict schedule. It lingers, shifts with the weather, and thrives in backyards with sprinklers, shade, and standing water. If you only treat once, you’re likely giving mosquitoes the perfect window to come back, and they will.
Here’s why ongoing mosquito control isn’t just a bonus - it’s the key to enjoying your outdoor space all season long.
Why One-Time Treatments Don’t Cut It in Utah
Most homeowners looking for reliable backyard mosquito treatment don’t realize how fast mosquitoes can rebound—especially in Utah’s irrigated neighborhoods. Unlike dry-climate states where mosquito pressure drops fast, Utah’s warm temperatures and consistent irrigation create a breeding haven all summer. Mosquitoes can reproduce rapidly, with some species completing a lifecycle in as little as 8–10 days under ideal conditions. According to the EPA, standing water in flower pots, gutters, and even lawn puddles can become a new hatch site in less than two weeks.
That means early spring treatments can fade just as the next generation hatches. One spray won’t hold them off for long.
“Many of our neighbors tell us the 3-week schedule is what finally gave them their backyard back.”
