Mosquitoes are more than annoying—they're a health risk. Our mosquito control program targets adult mosquitoes where they hide, and it helps prevent new mosquitoes from growing in standing water. Regular treatments give your yard ongoing protection throughout the season.
Mosquito Control in Gainesville That Works
Palmetto Exterminators' mosquito barrier program helps Gainesville, GA homeowners enjoy their yards during mosquito season, which often lasts from March through November. Every 3-4 weeks, a licensed Palmetto specialist treats the places where mosquitoes commonly gather, such as shrubs, bushes, shaded areas, low branches, and damp spots around the property.
The treatment is applied as a fine mist or fog to targeted areas of the yard. This helps reduce adult mosquitoes that are already resting there and leaves behind a protective barrier to help limit mosquito activity between visits.
When needed, Palmetto may also treat standing water with larvicide. This helps stop mosquito larvae from growing into biting adults. Since mosquitoes can breed in very small amounts of water, treating these areas is an important step in helping control mosquito populations around Gainesville homes.

These treatments help reduce active mosquitoes and create a barrier that helps limit new mosquito activity between visits.

Mosquito Control Questions
Answered
How often should mosquito treatments be applied?
Palmetto Exterminators applies Mosquito Barrier treatments monthly from March through November.
Are mosquito treatments safe for kids and pets?
Yes. Palmetto uses eco-friendly, biodegradable products. Once treatments dry, it's safe for children and pets to play outside.
What happens if it rains right after you spray?
As long as the treatment has had about 30 minutes to dry, it "bonds" to the foliage and won't be washed away by a normal rain shower. If you feel a heavy storm impacted your results, our barrier treatments are guaranteed—just call us, and we'll come back for a free booster service.
Will the spray kill "good" bugs like honeybees and butterflies?
We care about our local pollinators! Palmetto Exterminators' mosquito specialists are trained to avoid spraying flowering plants where bees and butterflies spend their time.
What is a Mosquito Misting System?
Think of it like a sprinkler system for pest control. We install discreet nozzles around your yard that automatically release a fine mist during peak mosquito hours (early morning and evening).
Can I get a one-time mosquito spray for a special event?
Absolutely. If you are hosting a wedding, graduation, or backyard BBQ, we offer Special Event Sprays.
