We Can Help Protect Your Family This Summer with Mosquito Control in Newport News

There’s nothing like a summer evening outdoors in Newport News. But when mosquitoes swarm, those relaxing nights quickly become a battle against itchy bites. That’s why so many residents turn toMosquito Squad for dependable Newport News mosquito control.

Risks of Mosquito Bites

Mosquitoes may be small, but they can have a huge impact on your health. In Virginia, bites from infected mosquitoes have been linked to West Nile virus and Zika virus, both of which can cause flu-like symptoms, rashes, and in more serious cases, lasting complications.

While the majority of cases of both Zika and West Nile are mild, there are other, rarer but significantly more severe diseases spread by mosquitoes. This is especially true of mosquito-related encephalitis, a type of brain inflammation that can lead to life-threatening symptoms, especially in young children and older adults. 

Virginia has seen several types of this condition, including Eastern equine encephalitis (rare but potentially fatal), La Crosse encephalitis (which tends to impact kids more), and St. Louis encephalitis (which can cause neurological issues in serious cases). These risks make mosquito control a must, not just for comfort, but for your continued health and well-being.

Prevent Mosquito Bites

We developed our 7 T’s of Mosquito Control to make it easier for homeowners to reduce mosquito populations around their properties. These steps include:

1. Tip over containers that hold standing water.
2. Toss yard debris like leaves and grass clippings.
3. Turn over items like toys and planters that collect rainwater.
4. Keep tarps taut so water can’t pool.
5. Take care of basic yard maintenance like mowing and gutter cleaning.
6. Team up with neighbors to ensure everyone is managing their yards.
7. Treat your property with help from Mosquito Squad.

These simple steps can make your yard less appealing to mosquitoes, but for the best results, pair these habits with regular mosquito control treatments!
