At AP Pest Control, we specialize in reducing mosquito populations around your Arizona property through treatments targeting adult mosquitoes and their breeding grounds. Effective treatments reach those shady, damp areas where mosquitoes hide and lay eggs, helping to knock their numbers down very rapidly. We also advise on minimizing standing water to prevent future troubles. With AP Pest Control, personalized service geared towards improving your enjoyment of the outdoors and making it mosquito-free allows you to relax without worrying about buzzing and bites.
In Arizona, mosquitoes aren’t just annoying—they’re persistent. At AP Pest Control, we get a lot of calls once the weather warms up and these buzzing pests show up in backyards and patios. The goal isn’t just to reduce bites, but to go after the root of the problem: where they live and breed.
Our process starts with a detailed inspection. We hunt for standing water—like birdbaths, clogged gutters, or planters—where mosquitoes lay eggs. Once we spot trouble zones, we help you eliminate or treat them. By cutting off their breeding sources, we slash the mosquito population before it spirals out of control.
After tackling breeding areas, we move to treatment. We use products designed to target mosquitoes while keeping plants and pets under cover. We focus on shaded, humid spots where mosquitoes hide daily—think bushes, trees, or under decks. The treatment sticks around to wipe out adults and stop new ones from moving in.
Since mosquitoes fly in from nearby, we recommend routine service during peak season. Regular treatments keep populations low and your yard comfortable. We’ll also share simple tweaks—like fixing leaks or trimming shrubs—to keep mosquitoes away long-term.
At AP Pest Control, we believe in doing the job thoroughly and making sure our customers feel comfortable in their own outdoor spaces. We’ve helped countless homeowners across Arizona reduce their mosquito problems with a clear, simple process. If mosquitoes are taking over your yard, give us a call. We’ll show up on time, explain everything, and get right to work.
Mosquitoes are more than an annoyance during the warmer months; they only become a problem when they decide to stick around in your yard or house. Early recognition will allow you to take a step or two before their numbers begin to increase. Here is what to look for:
The most obvious sign? You’re getting bitten—often. If mosquito bites bother either you or your family, particularly on the ankles, arms, or other exposed areas, then mosquitoes might be the cause. The bites usually come in clusters and often get worse later in the day and early hours of the morning, when the mosquitoes are most active.
That high-pitched sound is all but a dead giveaway. Buzzing is the sound created by the quick movement of female mosquitoes' wings as they search for a host. If you can hear this sound at rest much too often, that means mosquitoes are around.
Standing water is the best place for mosquitoes to lay their eggs. Even the smallest amount of water in a flower pot or gutter, or water collected in a birdbath, or a pet's bowl, is enough to attract them. Once you spot standing water anywhere on your property, chances are, mosquitoes are breeding there.
Dawn and dusk are peak hours for mosquito activity. If you're seeing mosquitoes around your porch, garden, or patio just as the sun is setting, that is a strong sign that a growing population is nearby.
While mosquitoes don’t necessarily seek light like some bugs do, they often fly near windows, porch lights, and indoor lamps at night. Seeing them around these areas frequently can point to a larger problem.
At AP Pest Control, we take mosquito problems seriously. Our team looks for the source, treats the affected areas, and helps reduce the chance of future infestations. Whether it’s just a few bites or you’re noticing them all over the yard, we’re here to help bring you some peace.
Mosquitoes are not just a summer nuisance around dinnertime. Mosquitoes are involved in a much grander scenario, both naturally and in relation to human health. Let's take a closer look at some interesting facts about mosquitoes that you would know nothing about.
Not all mosquitoes bite. Just females do that, for their need for eggs depends upon a protein component found in blood. Males use nectar and plant sap as a source of food. The next time you're bitten, then, you can be certain that a female mosquito is responsible for it
Have you ever noticed that whenever you go outside, those annoying bugs always find you again? They are attracted to the carbon dioxide you emit and heat your body radiates. They can sense carbon dioxide from as far away as 20 feet, which aids in their quest to find their next meal.
Mosquitoes live on every continent except Antarctica. They’ve adapted to a wide range of environments, from humid jungles to dry plains. Some species can even survive cold winters by going dormant in protected areas until temperatures rise again.
It may be shocking, but mosquitoes are responsible for more fatalities across the globe than any other living organism. That is because of diseases that these can carry, including malaria, dengue fever, Zika virus, West Nile virus, and yellow fever. Although all or even most do not carry disease, those that do carry serious health threats.
Mosquitoes deposit eggs in standing water, no matter how small the source. Plant saucers, buckets, birdbaths, plugged gutters, and bottle caps are all sources where eggs can incubate. Eliminating standing water around your home is one simple way to reduce their numbers.
Although small and light in body, mosquitoes are capable of flight in rain. Mosquitoes are capable of surviving raindrop impacts because they permit raindrops to transport them for a certain distance and then continue flying.
While mosquitoes are small, their impact is immense when it comes to our daily lives as well as the environment. Learning about their habits and nature will enable you to know how best to keep them under control around your house. And should prevention fail, expert treatment will work wonders in keeping them off your back!
