    Cape May Professional Mosquito Control

    Cape May, New Jersey, is a picturesque seaside town known for its historic charm, vibrant tourism, and beautiful beaches. As one of the country’s oldest vacation destinations, Cape May offers residents and visitors a unique blend of Victorian architecture, bustling boardwalks, and serene coastal scenery. Popular attractions like the Cape May Lighthouse, Washington Street Mall, and Sunset Beach make it a vibrant hub for recreation and relaxation. However, the coastal environment and lush greenery also create ideal conditions for mosquitoes and ticks to thrive.

    Community Efforts and Professional Solutions

    Cape May has embraced a combination of education and professional pest management to address these challenges:

    • Raising Awareness: Community initiatives educate residents on eliminating standing water and maintaining outdoor spaces to reduce mosquito and tick habitats.
    • Professional Mosquito and Tick Treatments: Regular treatments are encouraged for residential properties and popular outdoor areas to minimize pest activity and ensure public safety.

    Health and Safety Concerns

    Mosquito-borne illnesses such as West Nile Virus and Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE) are of particular concern in coastal areas like Cape May. Ticks, which thrive in wooded and grassy areas, present additional risks such as Lyme disease. Proactive pest control is essential to maintaining Cape May’s reputation as a safe and enjoyable place for outdoor activities.

    Seasonal Weather in Cape May New Jersey

    Cape May’s coastal climate greatly influences mosquito and tick activity throughout the year. Hot, humid summers create prime breeding conditions for mosquitoes, especially after summer storms leave behind standing water. Ticks are most active in spring and fall, thriving in the moderate temperatures and lush vegetation that characterize Cape May’s landscapes. While the winter months bring some relief from pests, occasional warm days can prolong mosquito activity, making consistent pest management important.

    Key Pest Factors in Cape May:

    • Mosquitoes and Wetlands: The nearby marshlands, wildlife areas, and coastal features lead to heightened mosquito activity during the summer months.
    • Ticks and Vegetation: Dense greenery and overgrown spaces around homes and parks provide ideal habitats for ticks, especially in wooded and grassy areas.

    Frequently Asked Questions From Cape May Residents

    How long after treatment can customers expect to notice a reduction in mosquitos on their property?
    Most of our customers will see a dramatic improvement 24-48 hours after the very first treatment. After two treatments, customers should be able to enjoy their outdoor areas because we have built up a barrier to the mosquitoes and ticks. At this point, customers can call us back out if they continue to get swarmed or bitten. Most of our customers are never bitten the entire season.
    Why are mosquitos a problem in your service area?
    New Jersey has an excellent climate to allow mosquitoes and ticks to thrive. Primarily, the warm summers, high humidity, dense vegetation, and relatively wet conditions allow mosquitos and ticks to thrive. Standing water, streams, woodlands, and rural areas give mosquitoes and ticks ample habitat. Its low elevation and relatively flat topography means that water does not disperse rapidly. Relatively mild winters allow tick species to survive from one year to the next.
    Are there any geographic features or weather patterns unique to your area that impact the mosquito population?
    Mosquitoes will need a combination of rain and a couple days of warm weather to jump start their activity. That can sometimes happen in April and sometimes not happen until May. If customers sign-up for full-season service, then Mosquito Shield of Southern NJ is ready to react as soon as the weather warrants it. Summers without a mid-summer drought will see much higher levels of mosquito activity than summers that are drier. A particularly wet or snowy winter can cause some species of mosquitoes to be active even after a few seasons of inactivity. A mild winter can sometimes mean that ticks will be more active and numerous earlier in the Spring.
    Is it safe for my family?
    The EPA states that the products we use pose no measurable risk to humans or pets when used according to the label, which we do.
    Do you come back out if we need you?
    We offer a Satisfaction Guarantee. After your second comprehensive treatment, if you are getting swarmed or bitten, just give us a call and we will come back out and re-treat your area. In the unlikely event that you need a second call-back at any time during the season, our Service Manager will come out with your technician and walk the property with you to see if there are any adjustments needed to your treatment plan.
    How long does it take to spray my property?
    Our technician will walk your property with you on our first visit so that we get to know the specific condition of you property and how you use it. This visit may take from 15-30 minutes. After that, most visits will take less than 15 minutes, but it really depends on weather, topography, and how you use your property.
    What are the best times of year to start and stop service for your area?
    Our full season service starts in early April and end in early October. Even a single service will be effective for a short period of time before the next cycle of ticks establishes themselves.
