The first thing you need to know is that mosquitoes thrive during summer when it’s warm enough for mosquito eggs and larvae to survive on their own. Mosquitoes are aquatic during the larval stage. They grow and undergo metamorphosis in the water between four and fourteen days. Once they reach adulthood, mosquitoes will start taking flight.

Taking their life cycle into account, here are the red flags of a mosquito infestation that you

need to look out for:

• You can see tiny “wrigglers” wherever there is a pool of still water (e.g., flower vases, containers for collecting rainwater, pooled water in tires) in your home.
• You hear a persistent, teeny, high-pitched buzzing sound around you.
• Your skin feels overly sensitive as though an insect is hovering over your arms and legs.
• You’re getting lots of red, itchy mosquito bites, and often without your noticing.
• You can see mosquitoes hovering over people’s heads when they go outside just when it’s getting dark. 
• You see and feel all of the above when you stand in the shady spots in your yard.

As soon as you realize that mosquitoes have taken residence within your property, you should begin exploring options on how to exterminate them.

Consider it a serious health issue:

mosquitoes can transmit viruses and bacteria that cause deadly diseases. According to the World Health Organization, over 700,000 deaths are due to vector-borne diseases — specifically, mosquito-borne diseases — like malaria, dengue, and yellow fever.

Eliminating Mosquitoes: The Best Solution

The market offers a lot of anti-mosquito products that can drive the vectors away, like incense repellent sticks and electric plug-in devices that release mild insecticides. Unfortunately, they are temporary remedies: you’d need to keep buying the products and use them every day to keep mosquitoes at bay.
