A Guide To Effective Mosquito Control For Your Caldwell Property

Mosquitoes are one of the many insect pests that Caldwell residents have to deal with. They might just be the most obnoxious pest as well. At Sawtooth Pest Control, we specialize in applying proven repellent treatments to keep your property mosquito-free. 

While professional treatment is really the only way to permanently ban the mosquitoes from your yard, there are some other things you can do to lessen the appeal:

• Get rid of standing water. If there is water anywhere on your property, check to see if it’s flowing or standing still. Water collected in your gutters, children’s toys, or a birdbath provides mosquitoes with the perfect place to lay their eggs. Getting rid of these water sources will help reduce the appeal of your yard.
• Burn citronella candles. Although not completely effective, it does sometimes help keep mosquitoes at bay when you burn citronella candles.
• Wear long, light-colored clothing. If you don’t have anything else to help you beat back the mosquitoes, then wearing long clothing is your best defense against a swarm. Mosquitoes are attracted to dark colors, typically. 

If you want your yard to truly be mosquito-free this summer, consider having a Sawtooth Pest Control technician come out and apply a customized mosquito treatment to repel these pests.

Ants & Common Pest Problems In The Caldwell Area

Ants are among the most common pests here in Caldwell and the surrounding areas. At Sawtooth Pest Control, our technicians provide efficient ant pest control services all the time, which eliminate the existing infestation and prevent new ones from popping up. 

Below are some things you can do to help reduce your chances of an ant infestation:

• Seal holes up around your home. Blocking off any holes, cracks, or crevices isn’t just good ant pest control. This will reduce the risk of many other types of pest infestations in your home as well.
• Clean up your yard. Ants and other pests love living in leaf litter, logs, stumps, and stick piles. By regularly clearing out your yard of this organic debris, you take away vital spaces that ants and other pests use to nest in.
• Properly store food: Whether its pet food or human food, ensuring they are properly stored in chew-proof containers will save you from more than just ant problems. 

At Sawtooth Pest Control, we provide specialized and generalized pest control services. With nearly two decades of experience dealing with the native pests of Idaho, we are prepared to take on any type of infestation.
