Below you’ll find a list of the typical environments that foster breeding for mosquitoes in the Waukesha area.
Features: Wooded lots, overgrown vegetation, and standing water (ponds, ditches, or temporary floodwaters). Why It Matters: These areas provide ideal mosquito breeding sites and shelter from wind and predators. Species Impacted: Aedes vexans (Inland Floodwater Mosquito): Utilizes temporary pools created by heavy rains or flooding. Culex pipiens (Northern House Mosquito): Prefers stagnant water commonly found in ditches or containers.
Features: Shaded areas, high humidity, and nearby water bodies create prime mosquito habitats.
Why It Matters: Outdoor enthusiasts are often exposed to biting mosquitoes during dawn and dusk, peak feeding times for many species.
Features: Shrubs, bushes, and gardens that retain moisture, as well as ornamental ponds, birdbaths, and gutters that collect water.
Why It Matters: Residential yards often provide sheltered breeding sites close to human hosts, increasing the risk of mosquito-human contact.
Species Impacted:Aedes japonicus (Asian Bush Mosquito): Breeds in small, water-filled containers like flower pots and birdbaths.
Culex pipiens: Commonly found in urban and suburban areas.
Heavy spring rains and snowmelt can create temporary pools, especially in floodplains and low-lying areas, which attract floodwater mosquito species like Aedes vexans.
Standing water from irrigation systems or farm equipment can provide mosquito breeding sites in rural areas.
Mosquitoes avoid open, windy areas and prefer sheltered environments such as tree canopies, tall grass, and shrubs.
Our unique approach to mosquito control delivers proven, effective results you can rely on. With treatments designed for rapid impact, you’ll notice a significant reduction in mosquito activity shortly after the first application. Our method ensures your outdoor spaces become more enjoyable quickly.
Any mosquitoes living around active areas of the home will be killed on contact with our proprietary formula. We train our technicians to target these areas so we can maximize the effectiveness of the spray.
Female mosquitoes are attracted to the scents we emit. Our proprietary formula is specially created to mask them. Once our treatment has been applied, mosquitoes will avoid your property.
As treatments are performed, a vertical barrier is established which strengthens with each mosquito control service visit. This will shield your yard from pesky mosquitoes.
There are various environmental factors that might lead to a breeding ground for mosquitoes.
Features: Shallow, stagnant water and dense vegetation create a perfect mosquito breeding environment.
Why It Matters: Wetlands support large mosquito populations, particularly species like Aedes vexans and Culex pipiens, which thrive in these habitats.
Features: Stormwater drains, poorly maintained gutters, and areas prone to flooding.
Why It Matters: Urban environments often host species like Culex pipiens, which can transmit diseases like West Nile virus.
Features: Shallow, slow-moving water combined with vegetation provides breeding and feeding grounds.
Why It Matters: These areas are highly attractive to mosquitoes and can pose significant nuisances to recreational activities like boating or fishing.

Identification: Small, dark brown to black mosquito with white scales on the thorax and legs.
Habitat: Breeds in natural containers like tree holes and artificial containers such as tires.
Behavior: Daytime biter; females are aggressive and primarily feed on mammals.
Health Risks: Primary vector of La Crosse encephalitis virus.
Identification: Medium-sized, dark mosquito with bronze-colored scales and distinct white markings on the legs and thorax.
Habitat: Prefers artificial containers, rock pools, and tree holes.
Behavior: Active during the day; feeds on mammals and birds.
Health Risks: Potential vector for West Nile virus and La Crosse encephalitis.
Identification: Medium-sized with a brown body and white bands on the abdomen and legs.
Habitat: Breeds in temporary floodwaters, such as rain pools and marshes.
Behavior: Nocturnal; females are persistent biters of mammals.
Health Risks: Potential vector for West Nile virus.
Identification: Small to medium-sized, light brown mosquito with unbanded legs and a blunt abdomen.
Habitat: Breeds in stagnant water sources like ditches, storm drains, and containers.
Behavior: Active during dusk and dawn; females prefer avian hosts but will bite humans.
Health Risks: Primary vector of West Nile virus.
Key Activity: The mosquito season begins when temperatures consistently rise above 50°F in area. Breeding: Early spring rainfall creates standing water, providing ideal conditions for mosquito eggs laid the previous year to hatch.
Common Species Active:
Aedes triseriatus (Eastern Tree Hole Mosquito): Found in water-filled tree holes and small containers.
Aedes vexans (Inland Floodwater Mosquito): Emerges in flooded areas caused by spring snowmelt or heavy rains.
Behavior: Mosquito activity is moderate in spring as populations are just beginning to build.
Key Activity: Summer is the peak mosquito season in Milwaukee Suburbs, North Shore Region, Waukesha, Washington and Ozaukee counties.
Breeding: Warm temperatures (above 70°F) and frequent summer rains contribute to explosive mosquito breeding, especially in areas with stagnant water such as ponds, ditches, and containers.
Common Species Active:
Culex pipiens (Northern House Mosquito): Thrives in stagnant water, often found in urban and suburban areas.
Aedes japonicus (Asian Bush Mosquito): Adapts well to artificial water containers and rock pools.
Behavior: Mosquitoes are most active during early morning and evening hours when temperatures are cooler, though some species, like Aedes mosquitoes, are active during the day. Aggressive biting behavior increases during this time, with mosquitoes targeting humans and animals.
Key Activity: Mosquito activity slows down as temperatures cool, typically below 50°F.
Breeding: Fewer eggs are laid during fall, but species like Aedes triseriatus prepare for the next season by laying eggs that can survive winter in dry conditions.
Common Species Active:
Aedes vexans: Remains active in flood-prone areas if temperatures stay mild.
Culex pipiens: Continues to breed in stagnant water but starts to go dormant as temperatures drop.
Behavior: Mosquitoes are less aggressive and less active, but they may still bite on warm days or during mild fall evenings.
Key Activity: Mosquitoes are dormant during the winter months in South Eastern Wisconsin due to freezing temperatures.
Eggs: Certain species, such as Aedes, lay hardy eggs in dry areas that survive the cold and hatch the following spring.
Adults: Culex mosquitoes can overwinter as adults in sheltered areas like basements, tree holes, or cracks in buildings.
