First, one of our mosquito control experts will arrive at your home and perform a thorough inspection of your property. During this inspection, your expert will look for any places where mosquitoes may dwell or any type of environment that can attract these irritating insects. Additionally, our experts look for potential breeding grounds on your property where mosquitoes may lay eggs. Nearby creeks and ponds can be large breeding grounds for mosquitoes. However, not all breeding grounds are large bodies of water. Empty containers in your backyard, such as empty flower pots or bird baths, can also be breeding grounds for these pests.
Mosquito Treatment in Nashville
After we've inspected your property, we will create a unique treatment plan specific to your home. In addition to us creating a perimeter that prevents these flying insects from dwelling on your property, we’ll also treat any areas that we find in your backyard or around your home that can be dwelling places for these insects to hide. All of the methods that we use for mosquito control in Nashville are environmentally friendly, and family safe to ensure that you and your animals are unbothered by the products we use to exterminate mosquitoes.
Prevent Mosquito Breeding Grounds
Another important part of our treatment process is that we not only treat the mosquitoes that are swarming your backyard, but we also treat the eggs that have yet to hatch. We treat or eliminate mosquito breeding grounds on your property to ensure that you can enjoy your outdoor space without constantly having to swat at these insects.
Protect Your Home and Your Family from Mosquitoes
Mosquitoes Can Make You Sick
Mosquitoes are most active from March through October. These blood-sucking pests produce itchy bites and are known to carry deadly pathogens, bacteria, and viruses that can make you and your family sick. If bitten, you have a one in 300 chance of catching a virus like Zika, Malaria, and West Nile Virus. At Waynes Pest Control, we recommend you receive mosquito extermination about every four to six weeks, with your first treatment being in March. This ensures that you have the best protection throughout the year.
Mosquitoes Multiply Fast
Mosquito control in Nashville is extremely important because these insects can multiply and infest your yard or outdoor space quite rapidly. Mosquito eggs can hatch in as little as five days, and those larvae become adults in as little as eight days. Once adults, mosquitoes can lay hundreds of eggs at a time, so it's important to make sure that you exterminate them before they take over your backyard or outdoor space.
Mosquitoes Live and Hide in Your Yard
Even though you may not see them, there are several hiding areas in your yard where mosquitoes love to hide. Empty flower pots and birdbaths are just some of several of their favorite hiding spots. If you think you have a mosquito problem, we’ll have a Waynes service professional inspect your backyard to identify any places where mosquitoes may be hiding.

Nashville Mosquito Control FAQs
What is the most effective form of mosquito control?
The best way to provide effective mosquito control in Nashville is to call Waynes pest control. We take a dynamic approach to providing a custom treatment for your home and outdoor space. In addition to providing timely service, we will spray the perimeter of your home, look for places where mosquitoes dwell in your backyard, as well as identify any potential hiding places and breeding grounds.
Oftentimes, when we go to inspect a home and look for places where mosquitoes can dwell, homeowners are often shocked to learn that their home features so many ideal locations for these devious insects. Piles of leaves, foliage, clogged gutters, and even tall grass can all be safe havens where adult mosquitoes like to sleep.
Once your home's particular needs have been identified, we will provide effective treatment so that you and your family can enjoy your outdoor space without worrying about an infestation of mosquitoes this season. We also provide helpful insight to prevent mosquitoes from breeding on your property so that you can make the most of your mosquito extermination from Waynes Pest Control.
When should you start treating your home for mosquitoes?
Mosquito control in Nashville is most effective when you start the mosquito extermination process before or at the very beginning of mosquito season. This prevents mosquitoes from overtaking your home or outdoor space.
In the United States, we have about 200 different types of mosquito species that live throughout the country. Here in Tennessee, we have 12 different types of mosquitoes that can plague us during the spring and summer months. Most mosquito species become most active after sunset and sleep during the day to avoid direct sunlight. Sometimes, homeowners may not realize how bad a mosquito infestation can be because they may not go outside very much at night. However, it is equally important to make sure that your home has been treated for these dangerous insects so that you have peace of mind all year long.
Because mosquitoes can multiply so quickly, we recommend starting your first mosquito extermination in March of every year.
How much would it cost to eradicate mosquitoes?
The cost of mosquito extermination will vary greatly depending on your home's particular needs and the size of your outdoor space. As you might suspect, smaller homes with smaller outdoor spaces may cost less than larger homes with more broad outdoor spaces. This is often because larger outdoor spaces require man hours, more product, and more time to protect these large outdoor spaces. Additionally, it can take more time to spot mosquito breeding grounds and mosquito dwellings in large outdoor spaces.
