Identifying Mosquitoes

Mosquitoes belong to the order Diptera, like true flies, and have only one pair of wings. They have long, slender legs and a head equipped with a large proboscis. Their wings and bodies are often covered in tiny scales. Adult mosquitoes can range in size from 3 to 9 mm.

Methods of Treatment

Effective mosquito management typically requires an integrated approach that combines source reduction with chemical control methods when necessary. Since mosquitoes breed in water, source reduction focuses on eliminating standing water and other breeding grounds. Although this strategy delivers the most effective long-term results, you may still need to apply chemical treatments to achieve comprehensive control, especially in high-risk areas.
