Mosquitoes are part of summer in Brisbane. The river, the creeks, the mangroves along the lower reaches and plenty of wet-season rain give them lots of places to breed. Mosquito treatment targets the shady shrubs, hedges and damp corners where they rest during the day, so there are fewer around when you head outside in the evening. Courtyards and balconies with lots of pot plants can be just as bad as big backyards.
The crew we book also checks for water that mosquitoes can breed in. Pot plant saucers, blocked drains, buckets, old tyres, birdbaths and rainwater tanks without proper screens can all hold enough water for larvae. Tipping out or fixing these is one of the simplest things you can do, and the crew will point out any they find.
- Treatment of shrubs, hedges and dense planting where mosquitoes rest
- A check for standing water around the house and garden
- Attention to patios, decks, pools and outdoor dining areas
- Tips for dealing with breeding spots between visits
- The option to add a tick treatment in the same visit
Mosquito numbers climb after rain and through the warm months, so plenty of Brisbane households book a treatment at the start of summer or before a backyard gathering. Homes near the river and creek flats usually notice them most. A treatment cuts the number resting in your yard, but mosquitoes can still fly in from the river and parks, so repeat visits through the season are common. For health questions, ask a doctor.
