You know the routine: everyone heads outside, the grill gets going, and within ten minutes someone says, “The mosquitoes are awfulI’m going back in.”
Mosquitoes don’t need much to get going. A little water and some shade are enough.
Left alone, those spots keep churning out new mosquitoes all summer.
Low spots that hold water for a few days
Buckets, toys, plant saucers, and birdbaths that don’t get emptied
Clogged gutters and slow-draining downspouts
Dense shrubs and shaded corners where they hide from the sunStep
1
Walk the Yard and Find the Hot Spots
We start by checking your property for:
Standing water sources, big and small
Shady, sheltered resting areas
The spots you actually use most patio, deck, fire pit, play set, dog run
We’ll point out what matters most and what’s easy to fix.
Step
2
Reduce Breeding Areas
Before any spraying, we tackle the basics:
Dumping or removing water-holding items we can safely deal with
Flagging gutter, drainage, or grading issues
Giving you simple tips to keep new breeding spots from popping up
Step
3
Treat the Places Mosquitoes Live
Then we apply mosquito treatments to:
Shrubs, hedges, and landscape borders
Shaded fence lines and property edges
Under decks, around patios, and near gathering spaces
We’re treating where mosquitoes land and rest, not just waving a fogger around and hoping.
Step

Keep Up with the Season
Most Portland homeowners choose recurring treatments during mosquito season. We space visits to keep coverage steady and adjust after heavy storms when needed.
Most people see a big change within a few days of the first treatment, especially in the evenings when mosquitoes are usually the worst.
Generally, each visit provides about 3–4 weeks of strong control, depending on weather, shade, and how the yard is set up.
Once the product has dried and you’ve followed the short-term instructions we give you, it’s fine to use the yard as normal.
Dump standing water at least once a week, keep grass and shrubs trimmed, and avoid leaving water-filled items scattered around the yard. Those simple steps make a big difference.
