Answers to Questions about Insect Spray

Very effective! 97-98% percent of the mosquitos in  your yard will be gone almost immediately. However, this is not a major  frost. Mosquitos coming into your yard must land on sprayed areas.

We have found that the mosquito application we provide has excellent  residual activity. However, it is difficult for anyone to determine the  exact length of time due to many variables.  An application usually lasts approximately 30 days and we have found in the past  that two applications 30 to 40 days apart were all that were necessary  for most of our customers.

The price varies with the size of the property and the amount of vegetation being sprayed. The cost for an average yard is $250-$300 for the two-application package. The only way for us to give each individual yard an estimate is to take a look at your property and give you a free quote. This is because we determine our prices based on what we have to spray, not on square footage. If you'd like for us to come take a look at your property call us at 262-521-1258 or click here.

We begin spraying at the end of May and stop near the end of September.  If you have a problem within that time frame please feel free to give us a call at 262-521-1258 or click here to get a quote.  That being said, for maximum effectiveness, we suggest you start in the spring, prior to the first  outbreak of the mosquito season. Not only will this kill the mosquitos  when they start to hatch, it will also reduce the amount of eggs being  laid in your yard.

The product we use is one of the LEAST toxic products for the control of mosquitos being used. Our product dries on the vegetation being sprayed in less than one hour. Once the product is dry your yard can be enjoyed by children and pets comfortably.

Our product is approved by the EPA to be used around children and pets. It is also approved for inside use. If you'd like to read more about the product we use, Demand CS, click here.

No. A normal amount of rain (1 Inch or less) will not affect the product. The product is designed to withstand rainfall. It gradually dissipates over time. We do not guarantee the product will last through abnormally high amounts of rain.

Our mosquito application is a contact killer. Any mosquitos landing  on the treated surface in your yard will die. In many cases we will  treat overhangs, doors, window frames, etc., to give more protection if  necessary. We do suggest that you talk to your neighbors about spraying  for maximum protection.

There could be a new hatch of mosquitos.  New hatches can fly over from neighbor's houses and it may take a day or two for the mosquitos to land on something we've sprayed, so please be patient.  We're working with nature!  If you're worried our product isn't working, feel free to go into your backyard and shake a branch on a tree, bush, shrub, or anything else we might have sprayed.

If nothing flies out, there's a new hatch that needs time to land. If mosquitos do fly out, please give us a call and we'd be happy to give you a touch-up.

There are two factors that determine whether or not your yard is going to offer adequate mosquito protection.

1. Areas to apply our product
   
   Mosquitos love dark and damp areas for living and breeding. So when we apply the product to your yard, we mainly spray any bushes, trees, and shrubs, as well as shady grass to kill the mosquitos and offer you the best protection. The most protectable yards are those which have a lot for us to spray.
   
   
2. Barriers between your yard and neighbors' yards
   
   Once we leave your yard 95 % of your mosquitos are dead, but your neighbor's mosquitos are not (unless they get sprayed as well). The best way to stop neighbor's mosquitos coming into your yard is to have lots of barriers (bushes, trees, shrubs, etc.) between your yard and your neighbor's yard. The more barriers you have, the more areas there are for the mosquitos to land, offering you the best protection.

Contrary to popular belief, yards that are completely surrounded by thick woods offer the best protection.

Watering of the areas that were sprayed will shorten the amount of time your application is effective. This also can create conditions for mosquitoes to live and breed. If your sunny grass has been sprayed for ticks watering it would reduce the effectiveness as well.
