Essential Mosquito Information
Types of Mosquitoes
Not all mosquitoes are the same — and some pose greater risks to humans than others. Understanding the different types can help you identify potential threats and choose the right prevention methods. Here are the most common mosquito species found around homes and neighborhoods:
1. Aedes Mosquitoes
Known for their aggressive daytime biting, Aedes mosquitoes can spread viruses such as Zika, Dengue, and Chikungunya. They breed in small pools of standing water — even in bottle caps or clogged gutters.
2. Culex Mosquitoes
These mosquitoes are most active at dusk and dawn. Culex species are known carriers of West Nile virus and other encephalitis-causing viruses. They often breed in stagnant water like birdbaths, storm drains, or ponds.
3. Anopheles Mosquitoes
The Anopheles mosquito is the primary vector for malaria in many parts of the world. While malaria is rare in the U.S., this species can still transmit heartworm to pets and breed in freshwater environments.
4. Asian Tiger Mosquito
A type of Aedes, this mosquito is recognized by its bold black and white stripes. It’s highly invasive, aggressive, and bites during the day. It’s also a potential carrier of various viruses and thrives in urban and suburban settings.
5. Gallinipper Mosquito
Much larger than most mosquitoes, gallinippers have a painful bite and are active both day and night. While not known to transmit disease, their size and aggressive feeding behavior make them a nuisance.

1. Comprehensive Inspection
We begin with a detailed assessment of your property to identify mosquito breeding grounds, such as standing water, shaded areas, and dense vegetation.

Homezies uses EPA-approved mosquito control products designed to eliminate both adult mosquitoes and larvae. Our technicians apply these treatments to high-risk zones around your home and yard.

We help reduce mosquito populations at the source by addressing standing water, clogged gutters, and other problem areas where mosquitoes lay eggs.
4. Barrier Protection
We create a protective perimeter around your home and yard that repels and kills mosquitoes for weeks at a time — helping you enjoy your outdoor space without the bites.
5. Ongoing Control Plans
For lasting results, we offer monthly or seasonal mosquito treatments to keep populations under control all year long — especially during peak months.
