Mosquitos are more than just bothersome; they can be deadly. The West Nile Virus, Encephalitis, The Zika Virus, Heartworm, and Malaria are all Mosquito-borne diseases. Mosquitoes typically lay their eggs in still or stagnant water or wet earth and only need a small amount of water to do so. Common household items that hold water such as old tires, children’s wading pools, bird baths, holes in trees, and even saucers underneath plants and flowers can all be breeding areas for mosquitos.  As part of our Integrated Pest Management Program, Fort Collins Tree Care offers a traditional 21-day mosquito barrier treatment program to help eliminate the infuriating pest. Call us today to have a highly trained mosquito technician come out to examine your yard and develop a personalized plan that works for your yard boundaries. We also offer a one-time service for special outdoor events.
