Summer in Mitchelton brings mosquitoes, especially near Kedron Brook, the parks along its banks, stormwater drains and yards with tanks, ponds or lots of pot plants. After a wet week, sitting out on the deck in the evening can become a battle. A mosquito treatment targets the shady plants and sheltered corners where adult mosquitoes rest during the day, and can make the yard more comfortable through the warmer months.
The crew we book walks the yard to find where mosquitoes are resting and breeding. They treat the undersides of leaves on shrubs, hedges and palms, the area under decks and the house, along fence lines, and shaded corners near tanks and downpipes. They also point out standing water they spot, such as blocked gutters, pot saucers, old buckets, toys and water bowls, so you can tip them out and cut down on breeding.

Because new mosquitoes fly in from creeks and parks, many owners book a treatment at the start of summer and again part way through. Between visits, tip out water every few days, keep gutters clear, check tank screens and keep the lawn short. Fly screens on doors and windows help keep them out of the house at night.
