Are mosquitoes good for anything? Throughout mankind’s history, mosquitoes have caused probably hundreds of millions of deaths due to plagues, dengue fever, Zika virus, West Nile virus, malaria, and many other diseases. Aside from that, they ruin our outdoor activities just by being around us. Nothing can be as irritating as the buzz of the mosquitoes. In this world, there is no place for such deadly insects as the mosquito. Certainly, there is no place for it here in Greenville SC.
Greenville, SC is the largest city in Greenville – Spartanburg-Anderson – Combined Statistical Area, otherwise known as The Upstate. It has a population of more than 68,000. It has a humid subtropical climate with four seasons: winter, summer, summer, and spring. It has received plenty of accolades. CBS News ranked Greenville as one of “2015’s Hottest Vacation Destinations”. Livability ranked Greenville downtown among the top 10. The New York Times called it “a national model for a pedestrian-friendly city center. Forbes has listed Greenville as one of the “15 Best Cities for Young Adults” and as one of the “Top Cities with the Greatest Capacity for Innovation”. The whole nation has now stopped and acknowledged Greenville as a destination city, and one of the most desirable places to do business. Something Go-Forth Home Services Company had known all along. Go-Forth has been providing quality pest control services here since 1959, doing its best to make homes mosquito-free.
Habitat
Unfortunately, mosquitoes have also found a home in Greenville. They love stagnant water. This is where the adult female mosquitoes lay their eggs, that is why they are often found in lakes, temporary puddles, marshes, swamps, and ponds.
Control
As we said, mosquitoes are attracted to stagnant water. It just makes sense that as a control measure, the removal of stagnant water is very important. Water containers at home should always be covered. Spraying insecticides can also be done, though this is a short and temporary solution. Insect repellant can be bought in the market, so many people resort to this as protection from mosquito bites. It is important to note, though, that these are just temporary control measures you can do. Mosquitoes are more clever than you think. They are capable of making decisions, have well-developed senses, and even have flavor preferences, so says researchers.
Scientists are working double-time to find solutions to the mosquito problem. They are fully aware of the millions of deaths annually and funding has been made to beat the mosquitoes. Unfortunately, this will take years still. While waiting for this solution to happen, why not call the folks at Go-Forth Home Services Company?
