Why Mosquito Control Matters for Your Sioux Falls Property
Mosquitoes aren’t just annoying—they’re a genuine health risk. West Nile virus, Zika, and Eastern equine encephalitis are all transmitted by mosquitoes found right here in the Sioux Falls metro. Every summer, the South Dakota Department of Health tracks mosquito-borne illness cases across the state, and the Sioux Empire is consistently one of the most affected regions.
The Sioux Falls area is especially vulnerable. The Big Sioux River, numerous wetlands, and low-lying areas throughout the metro create ideal breeding conditions. Add in spring snowmelt that leaves standing water in yards, gutters, and landscape beds, and you’ve got a recipe for explosive mosquito populations by early summer.
DIY solutions like citronella candles, bug zappers, and store-bought sprays only address a fraction of the problem. They might kill a few mosquitoes in your immediate area, but they do nothing to eliminate the breeding populations hiding in your property’s harborage areas. To actually solve the problem, you need a professional barrier treatment that targets mosquitoes where they live—not just where you notice them.
How Our Mosquito Barrier Treatment Works
Our mosquito control program follows a proven three-step process designed to eradicate existing populations and prevent new ones from establishing on your property.
- Inspection — Our crew walks your property and identifies harborage areas where mosquitoes breed, nest, and hide. This includes tall grass, landscape beds, standing water zones, shaded areas under decks and porches, and any other trouble spots specific to your yard.
- Targeted Treatment — We spray the identified areas with eco-friendly treatment. Within 24 hours, existing mosquitoes are eradicated and a protective barrier is created that keeps working between visits.
- Monthly Check-Ups — We return every month to re-treat known harborage spots and scan for new problem areas that may have developed. 6 treatments total from mid-spring through early fall—the entire mosquito season in the Sioux Falls area.
