Why Nashville Events Need Early Mosquito Control

April showers bring May flowers, but in Nashville they also bring something far less welcome. Mosquitoes.
Like many metros throughout the region, Nashville’s yearly rainfall totals are down. But milder winters and early warm spells, pests have indeed emerged. And among the most noticeable of these are mosquitoes. By the time proms, spring formals, and outdoor wedding season rolls around, mosquitoes are already out in full force.
If you’re planning any type of outdoor event this spring or summer, it’s important that you understand how much weather impacts mosquito activity – and how to get ahead of the worst of it.
How Does Spring Rain Make Mosquitoes Worse in Nashville?
Female mosquitoes require only a couple of things to start proliferating. The first thing is blood, which they obtain by biting us or our pets. The second thing is standing water – very little standing water. They don’t need a pond. A puddle will do. If a puddle can’t be found, they’ll settle for a planter saucer. Or gutters and downspouts. Some mosquitoes require only the amount of water that you fit into a bottle cap in which to lay hundreds of eggs. This makes your backyard or outdoor venue a potential breeding ground.
What many people might not realize is how quickly mosquito populations can increase. It only takes a few days after a little rainfall, and with even a quick round of springtime showers, their breeding cycles begin to overlap. Noticeable spikes in mosquitoes around your home or event venue can literally happen overnight.
Mosquito Timing Trap for Springtime Events
Nashville area residents’ springtime calendars fill up fast, and the unfortunate truth is that memorable outdoor events are ideally planned for the start of mosquitoes’ feeding and breeding season – ideal, that is if you’re a mosquito.
April and May are filled with proms, spring formals, and graduation parties. Early summer weddings are on the horizon. And these events take place in the evening, which is exactly the time mosquitoes are most active.
