Mosquito Joe® Urges Prevention As Summer Mosquito Threat Looms
Leading Pest Control Company Encourages Action Ahead of National Mosquito Control Awareness Week
VIRGINIA BEACH, Va., June 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- As the nation prepares for National Mosquito Control Awareness Week (June 15–21), Mosquito Joe®, a Neighborly® company, is urging homeowners to be proactive now to protect their families and outdoor spaces from mosquitoes. Recognized with Gold Tier status by the Environment Protection Agency's (EPA) Pesticide Environmental Stewardship Program (PESP), Mosquito Joe reinforces the importance of being environmentally responsible with mosquito management.
While mosquitoes may not yet be in full swing in many regions, due to colder spring weather and a later start to the season, experts caution that outbreaks can surge rapidly as weather patterns shift. Taking preventive measures now is key to avoiding infestations and reducing the risk of mosquito-borne diseases such as West Nile virus and Dengue fever, which continue to pose serious health concerns across the United States.
"As the weather warms up and we head into summer, mosquito activity will increase," said David Price, Associate Certified Entomologist for Mosquito Joe, a Neighborly company. "It's essential for homeowners to stay ahead of the season. We're committed to offering environmentally conscious solutions and empowering communities with the knowledge they need to protect themselves against mosquitoes and vector borne diseases."
To help families enjoy their outdoor spaces this summer, Mosquito Joe recommends the following prevention strategies:
- Maintain Landscaping: Keep grass trimmed and shrubs pruned to minimize excess shade and moisture, which attracts mosquitoes. Clear away leaves and yard debris that can trap moisture and provide ideal mosquito hiding spots.
- Keep Water Features Clean: Ensure swimming pools, fountains, and other water features are clean, circulating, and appropriately chlorinated. If not in use, cover them securely to prevent stagnant water accumulation, ideal for mosquito breeding.
- Protect the Home with Screens: Functional window and door screens are an effective physical barrier that helps keep mosquitoes out of indoor spaces, reducing the risk of bites and mosquito-borne illness.
- Protect Yourself: Apply mosquito repellents registered with the EPA that contain DEET, picaridin, or lemon eucalyptus oil. When possible, wear light-colored, long-sleeved shirts and pants to limit skin exposure.
- Seek Professional Services: Protect your outdoor spaces by using professional mosquito control services, like those offered by Mosquito Joe. Mosquito Joe offers targeted, environmentally responsible treatments tailored to local mosquito populations and habitat conditions.
Mosquito Joe locations are locally owned and operate in communities across the U.S. and they remain a trusted partner in proactive mosquito prevention through ongoing customer education and targeted treatments designed to minimize impact on pollinators and other beneficial insects.
