In Orangevale, Aedes mosquitoes are a common sight. These mosquitoes are aggressive biters, with a preference for feeding on humans. They are capable of spreading diseases like dengue, yellow fever, and chikungunya. Aedes mosquitoes lay their eggs in areas that are prone to flooding. Their eggs are resilient and can hatch after being dry for a time.
The two most notable species are Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. Aedes aegypti, the yellow fever mosquito, thrives in urban settings and can breed in small water sources. The Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus, is identified by its white-striped black body. Both species are active during the day, especially near dawn and dusk.
At Orangevale Pest Control, we focus our efforts on managing Anopheles mosquitoes. These mosquitoes lay their eggs on the water surface, typically in areas with dense vegetation or algae mats. The boat-shaped eggs have lateral floats, helping them stay on the surface. Unlike other mosquitoes, Anopheles larvae rest flat on the water and lack a siphon. Adults rest in a straight-line position, often angled or perpendicular to the surface. These mosquitoes are unique carriers of malaria.
Orangevale experiences five species of Anopheles mosquitoes, which thrive in vegetated water areas and algal mats. They are most active at dawn, dusk, and after dark, posing a threat. Our mosquito control solutions are vital to reducing their population and preventing the spread of malaria.
Orangevale is home to Culiseta mosquitoes, a common species in California. These mosquitoes deposit their eggs on water, forming a raft. The larvae then hang downward from the surface. Adult Culiseta mosquitoes have rounded abdomens, and some species can deliver painful bites.
Although these mosquitoes are typically less aggressive than others, they still pose a nuisance. Our Orangevale mosquito control treatments target the Culiseta species, reducing their numbers and creating a safer, more comfortable environment for you and your family.
Orangevale is home to Culex mosquitoes, which are known to transmit diseases such as West Nile virus, St. Louis encephalitis, and Western equine encephalitis. These mosquitoes are most active during dawn, dusk, and after nightfall. They lay eggs on water, forming raft-like structures. You can often find them near ponds, stagnant pools, and agricultural regions.
Adult Culex mosquitoes are light brown with a pale band around their proboscis. They prefer to bite during the night. Controlling these pests requires removing standing water and using appropriate treatments.
We start with a full inspection of your yard, checking for mosquito breeding spots like water accumulation and dense vegetation. To help ensure effective treatment, we ask that you remove any standing water and clean up the yard before our visit.
The process generally takes about 30 minutes, depending on the yard’s size. We use fogging and the In2Care system, both safe for pets and kids. The In2Care system continues to prevent mosquito breeding long after we leave.
Our mosquito control service provides ongoing protection to keep mosquitoes at bay. Each monthly visit takes about 30 minutes, depending on your yard’s size. To help, please remove any standing water before we arrive. Our treatments are safe for children and pets, ensuring everyone can enjoy the outdoors without worry.
The In2Care system we use targets breeding areas to reduce mosquito numbers over time. Monthly fogging forms a barrier that blocks mosquitoes from entering from neighboring properties. Our technicians will also check your yard for mosquito-friendly spots and offer simple solutions. Our treatments stay effective, even after it rains, to give you constant protection.
