Protecting Your Home and Family: Fighting Back Against Mosquitoes

Mosquitoes Can Make You Sick

Besides ending up with itchy bites from these blood suckers, mosquitoes can also carry deadly bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens that can sicken your family. You have a one in 300 chance of catching a significant disease if bitten. So, during the peak season (March through October), Waynes recommends mosquito control in Knoxville every four to six weeks to provide yearly protection.

Mosquitoes Reproduce Quickly

Mosquito control services are essential because a small population can multiply rapidly and turn into an infestation. Mosquito eggs sometimes only take five days to hatch, with larvae turning into adults as quickly as eight days. Just as troubling, mosquitoes can lay hundreds of eggs at one single time. So, it’s crucial to proactively get mosquito control in Knoxville before these pests take over.

Hiding and Dwelling in Your Yard

Mosquitoes can easily find places to hide on your property, even when you don’t see them yourself. Examples include empty bird baths and flower pots (but there are plenty more!). If you’ve noticed a problem, our skilled professionals can inspect your yard and identify their hiding spots.

Knoxville Mosquito FAQs:

How Can I Actively Prevent Mosquito Activity in Knoxville, TN?

There is only one foolproof method of outdoor mosquito control – calling Waynes. Removing stagnant water and other sources of standing water, such as trash can lids, AC drip pans, birdbaths, foundations and filling in potholes will help remove the desirability of your home. Trimming back foliage and places where mosquitoes can hide during the day will help, too. However, you’ll need Waynes’ assistance to ensure that they don’t swarm and come back. While this is handy outdoors – it doesn't solve issues indoors.

In the past, residents of Knoxville, TN, have covered themselves in mosquito repellant, such as DEET and hoped for the best. This form of mosquito prevention, alongside residential mosquito control such as mesh mosquito nets on doors and windows, will cut down the number of bites you’ll receive.
