Mosquito
Control
Canada is home to 82 different mosquito species coast to coast, with high notoriety in the province that's home to the national capital. The Canadian climate, especially throughout the summer, paired with a very short maturity stage often means that we spend a significant amount of time in the warm months swatting at these aerial aggravations.

Mosquito Control
Insight Pest Solutions
Here is how the professionals at insight will get rid of your mosquito problem. We will treat your yard with a product called Dragnet, which is an all-natural insecticide used to control the reproduction of mosquitoes, ticks, and other pest insects. Our product is 100% natural. Dragnet is a concentrated extract from the Chysanthemum flower, and it is perfectly safe for exposure to humans ... but not mosquitoes!
Brushes, shrubs, low-hanging trees, and other foliage will be sprayed and will act as a contract kill for roughly 30 days. We do not treat the lawn as it is not a common place for mosquitoes to congregate, as long as the lawn is well maintained. Nor do we treat flower beds and flowering bushed in order to avoid interfering with bees.
The Life Cycle Of A Mosquito
The length of a mosquito's development process depends greatly on species and climate, ranging from four days to as long as one month.
Egg
Mosquito eggs can survive up to 8 months of drying out and even in the winter months in some cases.
Larvae
Pupa
Pupae stay near the surface of the water to breath, and in a few days, they shead their skin and emerge as al adult.
Adult Mosquitoes
Adult mosquitos feed on nectar, but the females feed on blood in order to reproduce. Therefore, it is when a female sucks blood that diseases can be transmitted.
How to Avoid Mosquitoes
To avoid creating a comfortable environment for mosquiteos, limit putting water features in your backyard, such as fountains and birdbaths. When water pools on old trees, catch basins, barrels, vases, or any other water source other than a pool, dump it out. Limiting the standing water on your property will also limit the number of mosquitoes that will stick around.
