Mosquito Treatment and Control in Smyrna, GA

So Many Different Types of Mosquitoes!

There are 63 species of mosquitos in Georgia, but the main species of concern are the Culex Mosquito and the Aedes Mosquito.

• Culex – The Culex Quinquefasciatus is also known as the Southern House Mosquito. This is the dusk and evening feeding mosquito that we are most familiar with. Culex Mosquitos carry West Nile Virus with transmission being the most likely in Georgia between August to September.

• Aedes – The Aedes Albopictus, also known as the Asian Tiger Mosquito is well established in Smyrna and is unique in that she feeds during the daytime. These mosquitos can carry diseases as well, but they are most problematic as there is no daytime reprieve from their bites.

Mosquitoes become active when temperatures reach 55 degrees. Both male and female mosquitoes eat nectar for energy; it is only the females that bite. Female mosquitoes lay hundreds of eggs at a time and she requires a blood meal for production of these eggs. 

After feasting on protein rich blood, about 2 to 3 days later the female mosquito will lay eggs in standing water. She is immediately ready to feast/bite again and lay more eggs. Mosquito populations expand very quickly in the summer as the life cycle of the mosquito is quite fast. From the laying of the egg to the emergence of the adult is usually only 8 to 10 days.
