Mosquitoes
Main Beach Pest Control

Mosquito Facts

Here is a few information that you would possibly should realise about these nasty little bugs around Main Beach:

• Mosquitoes existed since the dinosaur period that was 400 million years back
• They could develop from eggs to adults in only 6 to 10 days
• They are found near still water where their larvae feed and develop
• They seem to be attracted to dark colours
• Mosquitoes will commonly bite you at sunrise or nightfall – as they mostly attack through the night. That is when their inner clocks tell them it is feeding time
• Mosquitoes are pulled in to heat and they find lactic acid alluring, would tend to bite people who had just exercised
• Larger people often draw in more mosquitoes since they create higher carbon dioxide and lactic acid

Avoiding Mosquito Bites

There are simple ways you can be protected and avoid some of the health dangers associated with mosquito and midge bites in Main Beach:

• Avoid wearing dark clothers using strong scents as they are more attracted to those
• Lessen uncovered skin – wear long sleeves, pants, footwear and caps
• Use insect repellent sprays – on exposed skin and repelling candles or products when sitting.
• Avoid areas with water – maintain clear of slow-moving or stagnant or still water
• Tuck pants into socks – if hiking through brush or rough grass and avoid brushing through long grass or bushes

Top Tips to Keep Mosquitoes at Bay

Mozzies are known in Main Beach Australia but that does not mean we love it. There are a few matters you can do around your own home or business to rescue you from those pesky pests:

• Keep windows shut – After dark, keep windows and doors shut or block out the light with drapes
• Insect screens – fit fly displays to windows
• Clear up – clear up dead mosquitoes, as they supply a tasty snack for other pests like carpet beetles
• Cover water – cover water butts with nicely equipped lids to save you mosquito larvae inside the water
• No standing water – do not leave standing water (in watering jars for instance) as this gives mosquitoes a spot to breed
• Natural predators – if you have a garden pond, consider getting a few goldfish as they will eat mosquito larvae
• Natural repellents – try natural repellents such as citronella, neem oil, peppermint oil, lemon eucalyptus oil, witch hazel, garlic, lavender and vanilla extract
