What Attracts Mosquitoes?

Is your home more vulnerable to a mosquito infestation than most? 

Yes and no. 

The truth is that while certain factors can make your home a bit more attractive to mosquitoes, almost every property in America contains the mix of food, water, and shelter that makes for an ideal breeding space. Water fixtures like fountains and birdbaths can make for better breeding grounds, but overall, mosquitoes are more than happy to make their home in any space they find.

Your home may need to be protected from mosquitoes if:

  • There are pools of standing water on your property
  • Yard debris has been piling up
  • Your drains or gutters are clogged
  • Your landscaping is overgrown and unkempt

Types of Mosquitoes in North Carolina

North Carolina most commonly sees two types of mosquitoes: the Asian tiger mosquito and the eastern tree-hole mosquito. 

Asian tiger mosquito

Asian tiger mosquitoes:

  • Have black bodies with visible white stripes 
  • Have a distinctive single white stripe running the length of the back
  • Are about a ¼ of an inch long

Eastern tree-hole mosquitoes: 

  • Have dark and narrow wing scales and dark unbanded legs. 
  • Have a median brown stripe of scales with silvery-white scales on the lateral sides.
  • Are ¼ of an inch long or smaller

Preventing Mosquitoes and Their Bites

There are a few measures you can take to limit your property’s exposure to mosquitoes and your own exposure to their bites: 

  • Dump any standing water collecting in outdoor areas, like buckets, birdbaths, tarps, and plant holders. 
  • Put screens on windows and doors to keep mosquitoes outside or consider a mosquito net to hang over your bed.
  • Use mosquito repellant with DEET.
  • Wear long sleeves when spending prolonged periods of time outdoors.

What Health Risks Are Associated with Mosquito Bites?

We all know that mosquito bites are itchy and uncomfortable, but under certain circumstances, they can be a lot more than just uncomfortable. Mosquitoes are known vectors of disease and are confirmed carriers of all kinds of viruses and parasites. 

ARE MOSQUITOES DANGEROUS?

Well, of the three most common breeds of mosquito in North Carolina (the Northern House Mosquito, the Asian Tiger Mosquito, and Eastern Saltmarsh Mosquitoes), all three are carriers of one disease or another. Northern House Mosquitoes carry West Nile Virus, Asian Tiger Mosquitoes carry La Crosse encephalitis, and Eastern Saltmarsh Mosquitoes carry eastern equine encephalitis. These are serious diseases, and sometimes even fatal.

Mosquitoes can be carriers for:

  • West Nile virus
  • Zika virus
  • Malaria
  • Multiple forms of Encephalitis
  • Chikungunya virus
  • Dengue virus
  • Yellow Fever
  • Certain parasites 

These diseases are incredibly dangerous and can even be deadly. There’s no way to tell what mosquitoes are just annoying and which ones could threaten your life, so it’s always best to let a trained pest control professional eliminate the risk entirely.

Other Health Problems Associated with Mosquitoes

Then, of course, are the aforementioned irritating, itchy bites, which cause a skin reaction in the form of a white or red bump on your skin. Things can be much worse if you have a specific reaction to mosquito bites, known as Skeeter Syndrome. This syndrome is typically found in young children, adults not previously exposed to the type of bite, and individuals with immune system disorder, and bite symptoms can get pretty nasty. 

They include:  

  • Skin swelling and rash
  • Hives
  • Swelling of the lymph nodes 
  • Fever
