Mosquito Control FAQs
When do you apply mosquito treatments?
Plametto Exterminators applies monthly treatments from March through November.
Are mosquito treatments safe for children and pets?
Yes. Palmetto uses biodegradable and eco-friendly products. Once dry (typically within 30 minutes), it's safe for everyone to enjoy the outdoors.
Does professional mosquito control actually work?
Yes. Professional barrier sprays can reduce mosquito populations by 85% to 90%.
What happens if it rains right after you spray my yard?
Palmetto Exterminators uses professional-grade "surfactants" (sticking agents) that help the product bind to your plants. Once the treatment is dry, it is highly water-resistant. However, if a major storm occurs immediately after application and you aren't seeing results, we offer a free reservice to ensure your yard stays protected.
Why do mosquitoes love me so much?
Mosquitoes may seem to love you because your body gives off certain signals that help them find you. They are attracted to carbon dioxide from your breath, body heat, sweat, and the natural odors made by your skin. Some people also have skin chemistry or bacteria that produce smells mosquitoes like more than others.
Other things can make you more noticeable, too. Exercising, wearing dark or red clothing, drinking beer, eating certain foods, or simply running warmer can all make mosquitoes more likely to bite. Genetics and blood type may also play a role, but your scent, breath, and body heat are usually the biggest reasons mosquitoes target you.
