Mosquito Control
Source reduction, larviciding and fogging for homes, gardens and commercial grounds.
Mosquitoes breed in still water, and most of the biting mosquitoes around a property were born within a short distance of it. Control starts with a survey of breeding sites: blocked gutters, plant saucers, discarded containers, drains, ornamental ponds and construction water. Removing or treating these does more than any amount of fogging.
Where breeding cannot be removed — ponds, wells, drains — we apply larvicide that stops larvae developing into adults. For adult mosquitoes, we fog or mist vegetation and resting areas, timed for early morning or dusk when mosquitoes are active and beneficial insects are less so.
Fogging gives quick relief before an event or during a dengue concern, but it is the weekly routine of emptying containers that keeps numbers down. We leave you a short checklist of the breeding sites we found, so the property stays protected between visits.
What's covered
What to expect
Fogging is done early morning or at dusk and takes 30 to 60 minutes for a typical garden. Keep windows closed during fogging and for about 30 minutes after.
Common questions
Does fogging alone solve a mosquito problem?
No. Fogging kills the adults flying that evening; new adults emerge from breeding sites within days. Lasting control comes from treating or removing the water they breed in.
Is the treatment safe for my fish pond?
Standard larvicides and fogging concentrates can harm fish. Tell us about ponds before we treat — we use fish-safe larvicides in the water and shield the pond while fogging nearby vegetation.
How often should fogging be done?
For an event, a single treatment one to two days before works well. For ongoing control through the monsoon, treatments every two to three weeks combined with source reduction give the best results.
Testimonials
What customers say
The technician found the termite trail in the garden before touching the house, treated the nest, and showed me the mud tubes to watch. Eight months on, the monitors are still clear.
They moved our kitchen from monthly spraying to a baiting programme and the difference showed within a fortnight. The service reports after each visit are exactly what our auditor asks for.
