MOSQUITO SQUAD EXPANDS INTO FAYETTEVILLE AREA TO COMBAT INFLUX OF MOSQUITOS

Mosquito Squad, North America’s largest and most trusted mosquito control brand, has expanded in North Carolina with the opening of Mosquito Squad of Fayetteville, owned by Paul Reinhardt.

Mosquito Squad specializes in eliminating mosquitoes from outdoor living spaces so homeowners can enjoy their yards, outdoor events, and outdoor living and dining spaces. Now with 120 offices, the company has been recognized as one of the country’s fastest growing franchise concepts in 2012 and 2011 by INC. Magazine.

According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 5,300 cases of West Nile were reported in 2011, with 243 deaths. West Nile is spread only via the bite of an infected mosquito.  To combat the area’s mosquito population, Reinhardt and team offer five strategies for mosquito control, listed below, and via a new video at http://youtu.be/EacJsCirabE.  

1. TIP. Reduce standing water to eliminate mosquito threats, including those in children’s sandboxes, wagons or plastic toys; underneath and around downspouts, in plant saucers and dog bowls.  Other hot spots include tarps, gutters, and flat roofs. 

2. TOSS. Remove excess grass, leaves, firewood and clippings from yards. 

3. TURN. Turn over larger yard items that could hold water like children’s portable sandboxes or plastic toys. 

4. REMOVE TARPS. If tarps stretched over firewood piles, boats or sports equipment and grills aren’t taut, they’re holding water. 

5. TREAT. Utilize a mosquito elimination barrier treatment around the home and yard. Using a barrier treatment at home reduces the need for using DEET-containing bug spray on the body. Mosquito Squad’s eliminates up to 90% of the mosquitoes and ticks on a property.
