Mosquito Control
One of the best known summer pests, mosquitoes breed in stagnant water or soft soil and can develop from egg to adult in 10 to 14 days.
Although only female mosquitoes suck blood to complete their brooding cycle, not all mosquito species behave the same. That’s why they require different approaches to treat.
Penn Pest Control technicians study and train to understand the behaviors of the different mosquito species present in South Florida to attack themĀ at the source.

MOSQUITO CONTROL PLANS
How does it work?
Our treatments consist of two parts: knockdown and baiting
Knockdown: This treatment eliminates a large part of the mosquito population in your yard. Some species travel MILES to come bite you! After landing on treated surfaces, they die. Still, more is needed.
Baiting: Combining knockdown treatments with the installation of mosquito traps/bait stations, we attack larvae. These nature-friendly traps are very attractive to females seeking to rest and lay eggs, their young are infected by a natural fungal bioagent that kills them shortly after hatching.
