Mr. Mister Mosquito Control is reminding households to prepare for the beginning of mosquito season. The warmer temperatures of spring will see the disease-carrying pests begin to stir again. The company says people in North Georgia should not wait until then to try to eradicate them. Instead, the certified mosquito control company has some tips for an early start. This can prevent the spread of Chikungunya, West Nile and Zika.
Mr. Mister recommends getting rid of stagnant water. The rain and snow of winter can cause water to build up in several receptacles around the house. Things like birdbaths, old tires, trashcan covers, and even plastic sheeting can become breeding grounds for mosquitoes. Now is the time to ensure these items are covered, thrown away or stored properly.
Taps which are leaking should also be fixed. They may cause water to gather around the perimeter of homes and attract mosquitoes. Mr. Mister says any water that is stagnant for more than a week can attract mosquitoes. For more information on Mr. Mister, visit https://www.mrmr.biz.
The pest control experts also advise Georgians to keep their gutters and drains clear. Even the smallest amounts of water can be enough for mosquitoes to breed. Gutters can become cluttered with leaves during winter. This, coupled with melted snow or rain puddles, makes gutters and drain ideal for mosquitoes. When gutters are cleared of debris, water flows freely and it is less likely that the insects will breed.
Maintaining a well-kept yard is also essential. Mr. Mister recommends throwing out any unused items that could collect water. Even any dips or small holes in the yard should be taken care of. The company suggests leveling them or filling them if they are prone to catching puddles of water. This is just another way to prepare Georgia properties for the dreaded mosquito season.
Professional help may be necessary for properties and communities which become overrun with mosquitoes every spring. Professionals like those at Mr. Mister Mosquito Control visit properties and assess how vulnerable they are to mosquito infestations. They can then present a solution specifically designed for that property.

One customer, Shannon Hicks, said: “Our HOA community has been using Mr. Mister for over a year now, and we couldn't be more pleased. The customer service and product are wonderful. Before Mr. Mister, we couldn't enjoy sitting or playing outside due to the number of mosquito due to the wet ground in the community. I've not seen a single mosquito since we started using Mr. Mister.”
Meanwhile, Brandon Friedman of Oxford Chase HOA had this to say: “Mr. Mister has been an absolute godsend for Oxford Chase. After years of relentless mosquito bites, cans of bug spray and the kids swearing off the backyards and the cul-de-sacs during the summer, we banded together as a community to hire a mosquito control company. After mulling over several bids, Oxford Chase chose Mr. Mister because of their reputation, environmental and pet-friendly spray, and their competitive pricing. It’s safe to say, we made the right choice. Like clockwork, they come out every 3 weeks to spray, and the resulting freedom from the mosquito swarms has been a breath of fresh air.”
Mr. Mister uses two products in the ClearZone treatment: an all-natural product around pools and plants to ensure they are kept safe and a synthetic form of pyrethrum called a pyrethroid. This chemical is EPA-approved and once it dries, it poses no danger to children and pets. It can also get rid of fleas, ticks, and some flies.
