Mosquito Authority proudly offers the latest technology when it comes to keeping pests away: Thermacell’s mosquito repellent system, LIV.

As a first-of-its-kind smart mosquito repellent system, LIV combines effective protection with ease of use. LIV provides convenient mosquito control that keeps your outdoor spaces pest-free, quickly, and quietly. Using heat-activated repellent, the LIV cartridges create a zone of protection around each repeller. With the accompanying app or by utilizing voice commands on other smart home devices, you can control the system, share control with others, create automatic schedules, monitor repellent levels, and customize LED light colors.

The LIV system offers a larger, backyard-friendly solution to keep mosquitoes at bay. But it’s not just for larger properties: if your property is too small or not suitable for sprays, LIV can provide you with refuge from biting bugs and peace of mind knowing you’re protecting yourself and your family from mosquito-borne illnesses. This people- and pet-friendly repellent keeps the mosquitoes away by diffusing into the air and lasts up to 40 hours of active use, all backed by the Mosquito Authority guarantee!

If you’re an entertainer, smart home enthusiast, or just want to enjoy your yard without mosquitoes, it’s time to upgrade your property with LIV, the ultimate Thermacell mosquito repeller system: reach out to Mosquito Authority today!

How LIV Works

The Thermacell LIV system provides unprecedented protection against mosquitoes. Through the use of the LIV system, you can expect exceptional mosquito protection when you want it thanks to its smart capabilities.

Consisting of a Smart Hub and repellers, the LIV system communicates your desired commands to activate mosquito control. The Smart Hub simply plugs into any standard outdoor GFCI 110V outlet. Our technicians will install the wall-mounted hub, connect it to low-voltage energy, and use plug-and-play cables to connect and place multiple repellers around your outdoor space.

Each repeller provides a point of protection that covers 20 feet in diameter. The hub can power and control up to five repellers at once, covering 1,575 feet altogether. We’ll help you determine the best areas to place your repellers, so you can ensure your patio, deck, fire pit, pool, playspace, or other outdoor spaces are covered within the perimeter of protection.

Once LIV is installed, we’ll help you connect it to your home Wi-Fi network for control anytime, anywhere. From there, you’ll be able to control the system right away from your phone via the LIV+ app, available for Android and iOS, or use voice commands with other connected smart home devices to run the system. In the app, you’ll be able to share system control with others, create schedules for automatic distribution, monitor estimated repellent levels, receive low-repellent alerts, and customize the colors of the LED light ring to match your outdoor decor.

Now Is the Time to Get Your Thermacell LIV Mosquito Control System Installed

Spring and summer will be in full swing before we know it. And with the change in seasons, one thing you can count on is the dreaded return of mosquitoes. In addition to preparing your yard for the arrival of warmer weather, now is the perfect time to schedule your LIV system installation with Mosquito Authority.

As your best defense against mosquitoes, we’re thrilled to offer Thermacell LIV as a mosquito control option to our customers. When you set up a consultation with us, we’ll take the time to inspect your property, identify the problem, and find the best solution for your mosquito control needs.

There are many reasons to consider the LIV system. It provides powerful, consistent, and effective protection against mosquitoes on your schedule. Taking only minutes to warm up, LIV quickly works to take on the muggiest, buggiest spaces.

LIV can cover spaces of any size, whether you have a large property or one that isn’t suitable for other mosquito control options. Our professionals can help determine how many repellers are necessary and where to place the repellers to provide the exact protection you need.

One of the greatest features of LIV is that it’s designed with season-after-season durability. After the initial installation, you can use the system year after year thanks to its ability to withstand harsh weather conditions. No matter where you live, from New England to Florida and everywhere in between, you’ll benefit from the protection LIV provides.

LIV is built for convenience. The system features no additional setup, batteries, or fuel once installed. Once paired with the app, you’ll have on-demand control of your system so you can quickly and easily check its status, control the unit, monitor repellent levels, and more.

Professional Tick Control to Get Your Yard Ready for the Season https://www.mosquito-authority.com/blog/professional-tick-control-to-get-your-yard-ready-for-the-season/ Fri, 03 Mar 2023 14:02:58 +0000 https://www.mosquito-authority.com/?p=34554 Professional Tick Control to Get Your Yard Ready for the Season Read More

]]>
With summer just around the corner, everyone is ready to get back outside and enjoy the weather! When you’re ready to host cookouts, throw pool parties, or otherwise take on the great outdoors in your own backyard, an important factor to consider is your tick control. Nothing ruins a beautiful day outside like finding a creepy, crawly tick on your clothes or skin.

If you’re looking for professional, licensed tick treatments, turn to the experts at Mosquito Authority. Our mosquito and tick treatments have been helping families and businesses to clear their properties of dangerous inhabitants since 2002. While we provide effective mosquito control mitigation, we’re also known for our tick-repellent services. Give yourself and your family peace of mind from ticks and the disease they carry so you can have the freedom to fully savor all that the season has to offer.

Just like with our mosquito control service, you’ll receive the same great customer experience and benefits that come with our tick control for your yard. Our tick services are applied by our team of specialists with no contracts or commitments. And, of course, the Mosquito Authority guarantee!

Why You Need Professional Tick Control

Ticks, unfortunately, aren’t just creepy and crawly: they’re also dangerous. With over 900 species of ticks worldwide, these parasitic arachnids can transmit numerous diseases that range from mild to life-threatening, including Lyme disease, anaplasmosis, and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, in addition to neurotoxins, allergens, bacteria, parasites, and viruses.

Tens of thousands of people are diagnosed with Lyme disease each year. Newer research methods indicate that approximately 476,000 people may get Lyme disease each year in the US alone. Ticks don’t disappear during the winter months, and infected ticks not only survive below-freezing temperatures but remain active and thrive.

Living in wooded and grassy areas, ticks take up residence in countless backyards in the summer and fall. Fallen leaves, tall grass, and brush provide many ideal residences for ticks to live in, and with a nice habitat, they’re more likely to stick around.

Ticks can stay attached to hosts from a few minutes to a few days and can be difficult to remove on your own. The sooner ticks are removed, the better, but investing in tick treatments is a great solution to avoid them altogether. Our team of experts utilizes high-grade products designed to wipe out ticks on the spot and keep them away longer.

Don’t let ticks make you sick; choose professional tick control for your yard from Mosquito Authority!

Tips for Tick Season

As part of our four-step process, Mosquito Authority experts can provide tips to help control ticks on your property. We’ve assisted countless customers with solutions to avoid getting bitten during tick season, and here are some suggestions you can start with before your initial appointment:

  • Clear your yard of clutter. Like mosquitoes, ticks are commonly found in and around gardens and in wooden areas. Removing leaf litter, tall grasses, brush, and other odds and ends from your yard discourages tick migration.
  • Keep your grass mowed. Ticks also like to live in tall grass, especially on yard edges and where it’s shaded. And who loves playing in the grass? Pets and kids. Mowing on a routine schedule ensures your grass stays short and removes hot spots for ticks to hide.
  • Utilize barriers to your advantage. By creating a three-foot-wide barrier between the grass and woods on your property, you’ll make the journey much more difficult for ticks trying to get into your yard.
  • Discourage animals. While it can be nice to see animals on your property, taking steps to keep deer, rodents, raccoons, and stray dogs from entering your yard can also help deter ticks, as these faunas are often hosts. This can be accomplished by stacking wood neatly and in a dry area, as well as constructing fences.
  • Plant tick-repelling gardens. Ticks are adverse to plants like chamomile, lavender, rosemary, and garlic due to their strong smells.
  • Wear repellent. There are lots of options available for a tick repellent. Natural alternatives like essential oils can help, but you’ll want to look for solutions that contain active ingredients like DEET, IR3535, picaridin, oil of lemon eucalyptus, para-menthane-diol (PMD), and 2-undecanoate to best protect your clothes and skin.

Our Best-in-Class Tick Control Services

Mosquito Authority isn’t just for mosquito control; we offer excellent tick control services too! Our best-in-class pest control options include tick barrier treatments and tick tubes.

We utilize the same four-step process as we do for mosquito control services. We don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach to control ticks, as every property is different. Our experts take the time to identify your problem, thoroughly inspect your yard, and provide a no-obligation estimate with an outline of the scope of work, price, and approach to be used. Then we’ll treat your property, and should ticks return, we’ll come back out and retreat at no additional cost.

We guarantee our services and are committed to your complete satisfaction. We’re able to offer our services without contracts and no commitments, and if you’re not satisfied, there is no obligation to continue service.

TICK BARRIER CONTROL SERVICES

Just like our mosquito barrier control services, our tick barrier control services disrupt the lifecycle and help reduce habitats on a long-term basis. With over two decades of experience, our specialists will develop a custom plan to effectively control ticks on your property, taking your unique situation into account. Store-bought sprays for tick control just don’t cut it; our team of professionals expertly utilizes high-grade products to keep ticks away.

TICK TUBES

One of the best tools in our arsenal against ticks is our tick tubes. Relying on the relationship between ticks and rodents, tick tubes strategically target pests with treated cotton. The cotton serves as bedding material for mice, rats, and other vermin, wiping out ticks on the spot when they come in contact with it. Additionally, tick tubes are made from a biodegradable material, leaving a minimal environmental footprint.

While at-home solutions can be a great start to resolving your tick problem, using Mosquito Authority to professionally assist in controlling these pests can help you stay bite-free all season long. With our help, you can look forward to a tick-free outdoor space as quickly as possible.

Contact us today for more information about tick control and the services Mosquito Authority provides to eradicate pests.

5 Ways to Prepare Your Yard for Mosquitoes in Spring https://www.mosquito-authority.com/blog/prepare-your-yard-for-next-spring/ Mon, 06 Feb 2023 10:11:54 +0000 https://www.mosquito-authority.com/?p=8874 5 Ways to Prepare Your Yard for Mosquitoes in Spring Read More

]]>
Spring is just around the corner, which means insects are finishing their overwintering and are getting ready to awaken from hibernation or diapause. Now is a great time to start preparing your property against pests, so that you can reduce the number of mosquitoes in spring.

Taking preventative measures against pests now can help maintain mosquito control once the weather warms up. Cold weather doesn’t always kill off adult mosquitoes, and some species’ eggs can remain frozen for up to three years. As soon as the temperature rises above 50 degrees Fahrenheit (10 degrees Celsius), mosquitoes will hatch and emerge, ready to feed and breed.

As the leader in mosquito control services, Mosquito Authority features a variety of powerful protective services to keep pests at bay. We utilize treatment methods rooted in science and historical weather data to determine start dates for each territory, as our schedules vary by region and climate. By taking some precautionary steps, you can start eliminating mosquitoes before your spring treatments are scheduled.

Don’t spend the warmer months slathered in repellent, hovered next to citronella torches, or, worst of all, indoors: it’s never too early to get started with mosquito control from Mosquito Authority!

Steps You Can Take to Get Your Yard Ready

Spring is just around the corner, which means insects are finishing their overwintering and are getting ready to awaken from hibernation or diapause. Now is a great time to start preparing your property against pests, so that you can reduce the number of mosquitoes in spring.

Taking preventative measures against pests now can help maintain mosquito control once the weather warms up. Cold weather doesn’t always kill off adult mosquitoes, and some species’ eggs can remain frozen for up to three years. As soon as the temperature rises above 50 degrees Fahrenheit (10 degrees Celsius), mosquitoes will hatch and emerge, ready to feed and breed.

Taking some steps ahead of your start date to prepare your yard can help us gain quick control of the mosquito population as soon as temperatures start to rise. Here are some tips Mosquito Authority recommends to get a headstart on eradicating pests from your property:

Clear Yard Clutter

Overgrown yards are like a big welcome sign for pests. By keeping your grass cut, trees and shrubs trimmed, and removing fallen leaves, you’ll eliminate some of the common habitats for mosquitoes and discourage them from residing on your property.

Eliminate Standing Water

Mosquitoes can lay eggs in as little as half an inch (12.7mm) of water. It’s a good idea to remove standing or stagnant water where possible to deter pests from making your property a breeding ground. We suggest observing objects that can collect and hold standing water, like tire swings, wheel barrels, birdbaths, buckets, planters, flower pots, and trash containers.

standing water in your yard

Prevent Soil Buildup

It’s important to keep soil from building up around your home’s foundation, as it can create a habitat for pests to live in. By moving soil away from your foundation and creating a barrier around the perimeter of your home, you can help keep insects away from your house.

Seal Your Home

Pests can get into your home from the tiniest of crevices. It’s a good idea to check your home for drafts, gaps, and other crevices where insects can get in, like window screens, window frames, doorways, attics, crawl spaces, basements, roofs, gutters, shingles, fascia, and eaves.

Mosquitoes can live for much longer if they have access to the interior of your home, so taking the time to ensure your home is sealed tight is a good way to keep them from taking up residence.

Set Up A Consultation With Mosquito Authority

Once you’ve completed some of the steps we’ve outlined, it’s a good time to start thinking about initial treatments with Mosquito Authority. Our professional mosquito control services can eliminate your pest problem and keep them away for good so that you can have peace of mind once spring starts.

We take an all-encompassing approach to spring mosquito control, considering your needs, property, region, weather, and other elements when creating a customized solution for your mosquito problem.

With more than 500 locations, our customers trust us to effectively treat their properties and reduce the risk of mosquito-borne illnesses. The Mosquito Authority process has been proven to work over nearly two decades of serving countless customers. By taking the time to listen to our customers’ concerns before providing customized solutions, we’re able to treat your property quickly and efficiently.

We’re confident in our services and offer them to customers without contracts or commitments.

We can set up a schedule, or you can give us a call to schedule your next appointment: what works best for you works for us.

Plus, with the Mosquito Authority guarantee, we’ll return, reassess, and retreat if necessary at no cost to you. Our goal is to keep your property free from mosquitoes and keep it that way, even between treatments.

Common Questions About Mosquitoes and Mosquito Control https://www.mosquito-authority.com/blog/common-questions-about-mosquito-control/ Fri, 30 Dec 2022 14:16:47 +0000 https://www.mosquito-authority.com/?p=30107 Common Questions About Mosquitoes and Mosquito Control Read More

]]>
Your best defense against mosquitoes is Mosquito Authority. Our mosquito control technicians provide professional services to eradicate mosquitoes from your property and prevent their breeding cycle. Since our founding in 2002, we’ve received many questions about mosquitoes and mosquito control.

We take mosquito control very seriously so your family can enjoy your yard with peace of mind. We’re happy to address mosquito questions and answers, so our customers have the information they need before starting our services.

Why Do Mosquitoes Feed on Blood?

Contrary to popular belief, mosquitoes don’t feed on blood for nourishment. Rather, male mosquitoes don’t bite, and female mosquitoes consume blood to help their eggs mature prior to laying.

The amount of blood that female mosquitoes drink per bite ranges from 0.001 to 0.01 mL (or 3.38 to 0.000338 fluid ounces). Both male and female mosquitoes feed upon plant nectars, like bees, wasps, butterflies, moths, flies, and beetles.

What Good Do Mosquitoes Do?

Mosquitoes serve as a food source for a variety of organisms but aren’t a primary source of nourishment for any predator species. Mosquitoes have existed since the Cretaceous Period (about 100 million years ago) in North America.

They are extremely adaptable, with upwards of 2,700 species known throughout the world. Given their adaptability, mosquitoes are difficult to eradicate entirely.

What Attracts Mosquitoes To Me?

Research is ongoing to determine why some people are more susceptible to mosquito bites than others. One theory is that the carbon dioxide output our bodies produce is a mosquito magnet, drawing in mosquitoes from up to 35 meters (115 feet).

Other theories posit body odors, visual stimuli, and even food choices can be factors in mosquito host-seeking behavior.

What Happens When A Mosquito Bites You?

Mosquitoes use a special mouthpart (proboscis) to pierce your skin and drink blood. While the mosquito feeds on your blood, it injects saliva into your skin, which results in a reaction that includes swelling into a bump and eventual itchiness.

mosquito bite

Many people have mild reactions to mosquito bites, but others like children, adults who haven’t been exposed to that specific species, and those with immune system disorders can have more severe reactions that include larger areas of swelling and redness, low-grade fever, hives, and swollen lymph nodes.

Learn more about the science behind mosquito bites.

How Does Mosquito Authority’s Mosquito Control Work?

Mosquito Authority uses mosquito control techniques that are rooted in science and based on the 3-week life cycle of a mosquito. When we visit your property for treatments, we’ll complete a thorough inspection of the area to be treated for standing water and other mosquito habitats.

We’ll remove the standing water and apply a granular treatment to areas where the water cannot be removed to eradicate mosquito larvae.

After our thorough inspection, we’ll apply a barrier treatment, focusing on shaded mosquito habitats like bushes, trees, and shrubs. These mosquito treatments will continue to eliminate mosquitoes for up to three weeks, after which we’ll return to ensure mosquitoes haven’t come back and repeat the process.

How Long Does It Take Treatments To Work?

While our treatments eliminate most adult mosquitoes immediately on contact, it could take more than one treatment to have the full effect. Many of our clients report a mosquito-free yard after the first treatment, with maximum control occurring after the second or third treatment.

Mosquito Authority is committed to our customer’s complete satisfaction with our services. We offer and stand by our guarantee that any time after your initial two services, we’ll return, reassess, and retreat if necessary.

The confidence we’ve placed in our treatments is reflected in our ability to offer services without contracts or commitments. If you’re not satisfied with the results of our treatments, you’re not obligated to continue with them.

mosquito repellent

Are Treatments Nontoxic For Children, Pets, and Wildlife?

Yes, Mosquito Authority utilizes treatments that are nontoxic for children, pets, and local wildlife. The primary ingredient in our product is used in flea and tick shampoos.

We do recommend waiting up to 30 minutes before sending children or pets back outside, so our product has time to dry and adhere to foliage. This ensures our product will last for 21 days before we return to retreat.

Our mosquito control specialists are trained to avoid blooming plants and foliage for pollinators. It’s worth noting that our founder is a beekeeper, and we treat within 10 feet of his hives with no adverse effects. If you are a beekeeper or have any areas within your yard you would like us to avoid, let us know.

Many of our customers report a reduction in insect pests other than mosquitoes after treatment. While our process is designed to only target and eliminate mosquitoes (pest control and ticks, where applicable), there’s little to no impact on non-target species.

How Long Do Treatments Take, and Do I Have To Be Home?

There are a few factors that determine how long it takes a mosquito control specialist to treat your yard. Treatments can be as short as 10 minutes, while others can take as long as 30 minutes.

At Mosquito Authority, we take the time to complete a thorough walk-through of your property, ensuring there is no standing water or other potential mosquito habitats. Our specialists will treat with larvicide if necessary in addition to treating foliage.

Additionally, no one is required to be home at the time of service. If there are special circumstances on your property, such as a required gate code for access or a pet in the yard, you can make arrangements with your local team prior to service.

mosquito-free backyard

Do I Only Need Treatments in Warmer Months?

For the best possible mosquito control on your property, Mosquito Authority recommends starting as early as possible in spring and continuing treatments as late as possible into fall. Eggs laid by adult mosquitoes can survive colder months, so treatments are recommended for spring, summer, and fall to best control mosquito populations.

This does vary depending on your climate, and your local team can recommend a treatment schedule based on your location.

Our barrier treatments are designed to function properly even in the wettest conditions, providing it has time to dry. This ensures our product lasts for the entire 21 days.

Learn more about when does mosquito season starts.

With no contracts or commitments, you’re not obligated to continue service during the off-season and may stop treatments at any time.

Tick Tubes

With our tick tubes, relief from a tick infestation doesn’t get any easier! One of the best tools in our arsenal against pests, tick tubes wipe out ticks, are easy to install, and leave a minimal environmental impact.
