Over the winter, we tend to become complacent in New Jersey. We forget that in a few months, mosquitos are going to start hassling us. Mosquitos are an unfortunate fact of life. It is unlikely that we are going to be entirely rid of mosquitos in New Jersey or anywhere else, but we can do our best to cut down mosquito populations by reducing the possibility of their breeding, eliminating standing water, and using the right types of insecticides. What are the best mosquito control pesticides?
1. The right types of insecticides offer targeted mosquito control. Mosquitos adapt, just like any other pest. Companies that fail to keep their products up to date will also fail to provide you with the best mosquito control possible. In New Jersey, you should not mess around with over the counter products that invariably fail to adequately control mosquito populations. Professional insecticide formulas are more regularly updated than commercial products, and are designed to be used on specific mosquito populations in your area.
2. The right insecticides also have to be applied correctly. There is no use having a chemical pesticide and then not knowing how to use it correctly. The safe and effective application of an insecticide ensures that mosquito control is achieved rapidly and safely.
3. Insecticides will not make mosquitos go away forever. We wish they would, but unfortunately, mosquitos are adaptable creatures, which is why they and many other pests have been on the earth for as long as they have. Mosquito populations evolve resistance to pesticides so that their offspring will still survive. That means that you need to get a hold of the latest pesticides, but you also need to consult with professionals about which species of mosquito are responding to which products that are available.
