Top 3 Things People Want to Know About Mosquito Control in Norfolk, VA

In Norfolk, mosquito season means several months of feeling as if you’re under attack. On top of the discomfort of itchy bites, mosquitoes can also transmit serious illnesses like West Nile virus and Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE).

At Mosquito Squad of Hampton Roads, we get a lot of questions from homeowners in Norfolk who are tired of swatting and are ready for real solutions. Here are three of the most common mosquito-related questions we hear, as well as the answers you need so that you can start fighting back.

1. When Does Mosquito Season Start in Norfolk, VA?

If you’ve lived in Norfolk for any length of time, you probably know mosquito season tends to kick off here earlier than those in less humid, warm areas might expect. In fact, depending on the weather, mosquito activity in Norfolk may begin as early as March. Warm temperatures and spring rains create ideal breeding conditions, and before you know it, your peaceful evenings outdoors are disrupted by a constant buzz.

Mosquito populations typically peak by late spring or early summer and stick around through September, or sometimes even into October if the fall stays warm. The best way to stay ahead of the surge is with early intervention and regular, consistent mosquito control treatments. Mosquito Squad’s mosquito control treatments are a great option and will help reduce existing mosquito populations while discouraging new ones from establishing themselves around your home.

2. How Do I Reduce Mosquitoes?

The truth is, there’s no magic button that makes mosquitoes vanish for good – but there are smart, effective strategies that can make a huge difference.

The first step is addressing conditions around your harm that may encourage mosquito breeding. When you call Mosquito Squad, our team will inspect your property to identify breeding spots like clogged gutters, shaded corners, or anywhere standing water might collect.

Once we know where mosquitoes are likely to hide and breed, we’ll begin applying a treatment spray to the places that tend to harbor the most mosquitoes. You can choose our signature barrier protection spray or you can opt for Barrier Treatment Plus, a proprietary blend of essential oils that are known to fight back against mosquitoes and other pests.

3. How Long Does a Norfolk Mosquito Control Treatment Last?

Our mosquito control treatments remain effective for up to 21 days. With our subscription plans, you’ll receive follow-up treatments every few weeks in order to maintain control for longer. In fact, we’re so dedicated to delivering optimal results that we’ll return to monitor mosquito activity up to three times more often than our competitors.

We also offer automatic misting systems, which are remotely controlled and designed to release the treatment spray into your yard multiple times each day. We’ll refill the system as needed, while you get all the benefits from a yard that’s even better protected from mosquitoes!
