Why Choose Compass Pest Management?
Why Do Mosquitoes Love My Property?
If you’re constantly battling mosquitoes, your property might be giving off an open invitation. Mosquitoes are attracted to specific environmental factors that make your home or yard an ideal spot to settle and breed. Identifying these factors can help you understand the problem and take action to reduce mosquito activity.
Here's what may be attracting mosquitoes to your yard:
- Standing water - This is the number one factor that attracts mosquitoes. They need standing water to lay their eggs, and it only takes a small amount for them to thrive.
- Shaded areas - Mosquitoes prefer cool, damp environments, so they’re often found in shaded spots around your property.
- Overgrown vegetation - Tall grass and weeds provide hiding places for mosquitoes during the day when they’re not actively seeking blood meals.
- People and pets - Mosquitoes are drawn to body heat, carbon dioxide, and the scent of sweat, which makes humans and animals prime targets.
Understanding what attracts mosquitoes to your property is the first step in combating them. With our Mosquito Skills service, Compass Pest Management targets these problem areas to significantly reduce mosquito populations and protect your yard.

He is professional and knows his stuff. He went above and beyond and explained what he did. Before he came in, he even took off his shoes. Before he left, he told me to call if there were any issues.
