Prevent Mosquito Bites With Maryland Exterminators
Some people have strong reactions to mosquito bites, characterized by large areas of swelling, soreness, and redness, or even low-grade fever, hives, and swollen lymph nodes in some cases. For these individuals, it’s worth taking the extra effort to prevent mosquito bites altogether—and really, the same can be said of just about anyone.
Why? Because preventing mosquito bites not only saves you from itchy discomfort, adverse reactions, and the risk of mosquito-borne viruses; it also slows mosquito breeding in your community, as females cannot produce eggs without a blood meal.
To prevent bites without Maryland exterminators, we recommend:
- Eliminating mosquito breeding sites on your property (e.g. upending containers holding standing water, mowing tall lawns, sealing septic tanks, etc)
- Wearing long-sleeved clothing whenever possible
- Using a repellent containing safe levels of DEET
- Staying indoors peak mosquito feeding times
If these tips aren’t giving you relief, you may be facing a serious infestation, in which case it’s time to call in Maryland exterminators. At Mosquito Sheriff, we take an integrated approach to mosquito prevention, combining mechanical, biological, and cultural controls with an all-natural spray solution that is pet-safe, plant-safe, and guaranteed effective.
