Mosquito Prevention Gets Your Family Outside Again

**This post is sponsored by BabbleBoxx.com on behalf of Mosquito Joe.**

 

I’ve waited months for this time of the year.

Summer is now a reality, kids are out of school, and outdoor activity is a must! Whether hiking a mountain, firing up the grill, having fun in our own yard, or relaxing at the lake, my family longs for fresh air and sunshine.

When I was a young girl, all I wanted to do was play outside during summer break. My adventures started early in the morning and lasted until an adult demanded I go inside. My daughters are the same and love the feeling of summer freedom. Unfortunately, they rarely get to experience it unless we apply layers of bug spray or head somewhere else for outdoor activity. Mosquitoes are relentless where we live and even with spray, they find some part of us to feast on!

Summer also means less is more when it comes to fashion and we enjoy wearing cute tanks, shorts, and dresses. I don’t want myself or my daughters walking around with itchy bumps all over our bodies. Let’s not forget the scars!

Do you feel the same???

 

Mosquito Prevention

 

I often think of hosting summer gatherings but it could never happen without the help of a professional mosquito spraying service. In addition to bug spray, we’ve tried mosquito repelling candles and citronella plants. They all work temporarily but we need a long-lasting and thorough solution. After doing some research, I think I’ve found just what we need.

Mosquito Joe offers mosquito control services to residential and commercial properties. Their trained, certified technicians walk your property and actually seek out breeding areas. The service isn’t to simply kill adult mosquitoes but to destroy the life cycle. That is the type of solution my family is looking for!

Not only are insect bites painful and annoying, they can be dangerous! Many insects, especially mosquitoes, expose humans and pets to diseases such as West Nile virus and Zika. I want to keep my family safe and using a mosquito control service (like Mosquito Joe) is one way to do that.

There are various treatment options for residential/business properties, parks, and municipalities. A barrier spray works immediately and lasts for weeks. The all-natural service is an alternative to the barrier spray but has less adhesive properties. The special events (one-time) treatment is used for mosquito prevention during outdoor occasions such as weddings, barbecues, parties, etc. The misting system is a more permanent option that gives homeowners more control. Mosquito Joe will install it to release spray a few times daily. Here is a snippet about the misting system from their website…

 

Designed to release a misting spray several times daily for less than a minute, your system of discreetly hidden nylon tubing with strategically placed nozzles can include a remote control allowing you to choose additional or fewer sprays as needed. Mosquito Joe will fill, service and winterize your system, along with spring startup maintenance. These systems are virtually maintenance-free, even designed to detect leaks and damage and shut off immediately.

 

To get started, find the nearest location and call to make an appointment /or/ fill out the online form to request a quote. Another aspect to appreciate about Mosquito Joe is that you’re never locked into a contract. If you aren’t satisfied with the service, they work with you to fix the problem or give you a refund. Be sure to check the site for more information.

It’s exciting to think of mornings on our porch with coffee but without mosquitos. I can envision my girls playing outdoor games without the hassle of sprays, annoying bugs, and premature returns inside. We'll be able to fly our drone regularly at home and oh my… the fun we’ll have on our deck. Whether family visits for an outdoor meal or adults gather for late night margaritas, we can get outside again!
