Mosquito Control Options

Monthly Mosquito Barrier Treatments

Palmetto's most popular mosquito program runs from March through November. Every 3-4 weeks, a licensed specialist fogs shrubs, shaded areas, and other mosquito hiding spots while treating standing water with larvicide. This kills mosquitoes on contact and creates a protective barrier that repels new ones.

Special Event Mosquito Treatments

Hosting a wedding, graduation, or backyard party? Don't let mosquitoes crash the celebration. Palmetto provides one-time treatments that can be scheduled days—or even months—in advance, keeping guests bite-free.

Neighborhood Mosquito Program

Palmetto's mosquito control specialists treat common areas like playgrounds, pools, and trails. The program includes larviciding breeding sites such as swamps, ditches, and retention ponds.

Mosquito Misting Systems

For year-round relief, Palmetto installs automatic mosquito misting systems around your yard. Much like a sprinkler system, the misting system releases a fine spray during peak mosquito activity—early morning and evening. Palmetto handles everything: setup, refills, maintenance, and winterization.

Mosquito Control FAQs

Do I need to be home for mosquito control service?

No. As long as the technician has access to your yard (gates are unlocked) and your pets are inside, you do not need to be present. Most companies will leave a door hanger or send an email/text notification once the service is complete.

What happens if it rains right after a treatment?

Our mosquito treatment has "sticking agents" that allow them to withstand light-to-moderate rain once they have dried. However, if a heavy downpour occurs immediately after application, we offer a satisfaction guarantee and will return to re-treat your yard.

What can I do to reduce mosquitoes around my home?

The "Tip 'n Toss" method is your best defense. Regularly empty standing water from:

  • Clogged gutters

  • Bird baths and flower pot saucers

  • Pet water bowls
  • Children's toys or tires

  • Tarps covering boats or woodpiles

What months do you apply mosquito barrier treatments?

During mosquito season (approximately March through November), our licensed and trained Mosquito Control Specialists will complete treatment in your yard about every four weeks.

Will your mosquito spray kill bees and butterflies?

At Palmetto, we practice Integrated Pest Management (IPM). Our technicians are trained to be "pollinator-conscious." We avoid spraying blooming flowers where bees and butterflies gather. Instead, we target the underside of leaves and dense, shady foliage where mosquitoes actually rest during the day.

I really appreciate the young man you sent to our house yesterday to spray. He does an amazing job, better than anybody. You really have a prize in him as an employee. After he was here the time before we have not had any mosquitoes for the first time since we moved here. Be sure to keep him and always send him to our house.

Palmetto Exterminators doesn't just perform their job; they take the time to educate their clients on the methods they use and what homeowners can do to help manage insect populations. This is especially important if you have pets in the house. The company charges a reasonable fee for their quarterly and yearly exterminations but still provides friendly and professional service. They even remember their clients and their pets, making the whole experience personal and enjoyable.

Great locally owned company that is very professional and responsive. We couldn't be happier after trying a large national chain and a smaller single man company, both of which have their draw backs; Palmetto Exterminators struck the perfect balance.
