A few species of mosquito are present in the UK. While they aren’t particularly prevalent, they do cause infestations in homes and gardens and these can be quite problematic. Mosquitoes breed around standing water sources such as bird baths and water butts. Mosquitoes in the UK can bite humans. The female mosquito will bite prior to laying eggs. While an individual mosquito in the home probably isn’t a sign of a serious problem, a number of mosquitoes in the same area can be considered a sign of an infestation and this should be controlled as they can breed quickly.
Mosquitoes in the United Kingdom do not spread diseases, nonetheless they can bite and in huge numbers this is very painful. These pest insects can cause painful, itchy bites in humans and household pets, particularly if the mosquitoes are left to travel around the house at night.
The key to successful mosquito control is accurate identification of the species. While some mosquitoes can be mistaken for other pests such as gnats or crane flies, mosquitoes make a distinctive high pitched whining noise when they fly. Qualified pest control companies can identify the insect and then implement a highly effective pest control strategy. This will often include use of a knock down insecticide spray to eliminate adult mosquitoes, accompanied by an insecticide treatment of plants and bushes in the area along with any standing water sources. This last treatment is designed to kill any larvae or eggs that are present as well as removing the places that mosquitoes can lay eggs.
