Home Pest Control

Not only do we promise to make your property bite-free, but we also throw in a free high-five with every service. Because who doesn’t need a little extra encouragement in the battle against bugs? While a high-five is certainly encouraging, we understand you may need a little more. So, we also back up our outdoor home pest control services with the Mosquito Joe Satisfaction Guarantee and the Neighborly Done Right Promise®. Now that deserves a high-five or two!

We never enter your home. Mosquito Joe home pest control services treat the outside of your home, creating an effective barrier between your exterior surfaces and any pests that could enter. We target cracks in walls and doors and window frame gaps—any spots pests might slip through. Not only do we control the insects and rodents currently on your property, but our treatments also keep them from coming back.

As the temperature rises during spring, pests usually wake from their winter hibernation and become more active in searching for food and a place to breed. However, noticing a couple of pests crawling or flying around isn’t usually a sign of an infestation. During the summer months, the pests have more access to water and food and quickly multiply, which is when you’ll see the most activity.

Seeing five or six ants in the house doesn’t mean you have an infestation yet, but seeing as many cockroaches sure does. And that many mice or rats means the infestation is severe. The variations are based on pest species, behavior (rodents are nocturnal and trying to hide), breeding rate, the amount of property damage the pests can do, and the severity of the health risks.

Treatments control most pests immediately. However, it’s typical to see stragglers escaping affected areas. This can be discouraging, but it’s important to remember it’s temporary and a positive indication that the treatment is working. Be aware that controlling pests on your property can encourage neighboring colonies to move into the vacated territory. That’s why it’s highly recommended to create a barrier around your property and continue regular treatment.

A quality outdoor home pest control treatment effectively targets every stage of the critters’ life cycle. However, different insects, as well as eggs, larvae, or pupae, can have impressive resistance to insecticides. Repeated pest control treatments ensure we catch the survivors of the previous treatment before they can reestablish their population. The treatment frequency may vary depending on factors such as the time of year, weather conditions, and location.
