Mosquitoes in Georgia Homes
What You Need to Know
Mosquitoes are a common nuisance throughout Georgia, especially during the warm and humid months. These tiny pests are not only irritating with their itchy bites but can also pose health risks by transmitting diseases such as West Nile virus and Eastern Equine Encephalitis. Understanding how to identify and manage mosquito infestations is essential to protecting your home and family.
Signs of a Mosquito Infestation
Frequent Bites: If you or your family members notice an increase in mosquito bites, especially during dawn and dusk, it's a clear sign of their presence.
Buzzing Sounds: Mosquitoes produce a distinctive high-pitched buzzing sound near your ears or around your home.
Standing Water: Mosquitoes breed in stagnant water. Check your property for birdbaths, clogged gutters, flower pots, or any containers holding water.
Visible Mosquitoes: Seeing mosquitoes resting on walls, plants, or near water sources is a strong indicator of an infestation.
How to Get Rid of Mosquitoes
Eliminate Standing Water: Regularly empty or treat any standing water around your home to disrupt mosquito breeding.
Use Mosquito Repellents: Apply EPA-approved insect repellents when spending time outdoors.
Install Screens: Ensure windows and doors have tight-fitting screens to prevent mosquitoes from entering your home.
Maintain Your Yard: Trim tall grass and bushes where mosquitoes can rest during the day.
Use Outdoor Fans: Mosquitoes are weak flyers, so outdoor fans can help keep them away from patios and decks.
