Barrier spray mosquito treatments work right away – and keep working for weeks.
When you contract Mosquito Joe of the Greater Buffalo Region for mosquito control, a trained technician will treat your yard with an effective barrier spray that eliminates biters for 21 days. Using a backpack sprayer designed for precise application, your technician targets shrubs and plants with a barrier spray that kills mosquitoes on contact and bonds to foliage, where it acts as a mosquito repellent for weeks to come. Within 30 minutes of spraying, your yard in the Buffalo area is ready for family and pets to come out and play.
We also inspect your property for active larvae populations and treat them accordingly. Your technician will help you identify potential mosquito breeding grounds in your yard and recommend ways to eliminate standing water. These notes will be left on the post-service door hanger at the end of the treatment. Every three weeks, our team will return to treat your yard.
All of the barrier spray chemicals we use are synthetic forms of pyrethrins called pyrethroids. Pyrethrins are insecticides that are derived from a naturally occurring compound called pyrethrum found in the chrysanthemum flower. Pyrethroids are used in numerous commercial products that consumers use to control insects such as household pets insecticides, pet shampoos and sprays, and even lice shampoos applied directly to the scalp. The standard barrier spray treatment is effective on other pests such as fleas, ticks and some flies as well.
All mosquito control services can be scheduled at your convenience, whether you are at home or not. As long as your property is accessible, you can trust your technician to let you know your yard has been treated.
The Fast Defense Program
If you are beginning service after the middle of May, we recommend our Fast Defense Program! With this program, we service 2-3 applications in a condensed period of time so you can spend more time enjoying outside with less itching and swatting. You’ll be able to take back control of your property by jumpstarting the recurring maintenance mosquito control service with us, which is applied every three weeks.
Depending on the infestation rate, it can take up to 2-3 applications to build up a defense. In the greater Buffalo region, mosquitoes start breeding in April. The longer the first treatment is prolonged, the quicker the population will multiply making it difficult to build a defense.
Base prices are set by the size of your property, so call us, request a quote to the right or e-mail buffalo@mosquitojoe.com for a free estimate and to schedule your first treatment. With a recurring three week interval and no contracts, rest assured outside is fun again and you’ll only receive the best mosquito control service in all of Buffalo!
