Gnat Control in East Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas
Did you know that gnats are in the same order as mosquitoes? “Gnat” is the common name for many species of small, winged, biting insects related to flies. What we refer to as gnats includes fruit flies, midges, sandflies, no-see-ums, and fungus gnats, among over a thousand other species. These annoying pests tend to be around bugging us from early Spring until those warmer summer temperatures kick in around mid to late June. Luckily, Mosquito Joe of East DFW offers gnat-repelling services, letting you enjoy your yard swat-free!

Gnat Life Cycle
Gnats will move through their life cycle in approximately 30 days. During this time, the male gnats will swarm at dusk and mate with the female who has entered the swarm. From there the female gnat will lay 300 eggs and a total of 1,000 eggs during her lifetime. While most gnats are harmless, the buffalo gnat does bite. However, by reducing areas in your yard that help them breed you’ll keep the population under control!
