Living in Spring, TX, and the Greater Houston Area means enjoying warm weather, green yards, and outdoor gatherings almost year-round. But with that comes a not-so-welcome guest—mosquitoes. These tiny pests aren’t just annoying; they can pose serious health risks to your family and pets. At Greenforce Pest Solutions, we understand how quickly a small mosquito issue can spiral into a full-blown infestation. So, how do you know when it’s time to call in the pros?
Here are some telltale signs you’ve got a mosquito problem on your hands—and how we can help.
1. You’re Constantly Getting Bit—Even in Broad Daylight
The most obvious (and irritating) sign of a mosquito problem is frequent bites. If you or your family get bitten while relaxing on the patio, playing in the yard, or even walking to the car, mosquitoes are likely nesting close by. Mosquitoes are most active during dawn and dusk, but some species in Texas bite all day long, especially in shaded areas.
2. You Hear That High-Pitched Whine
That unmistakable buzzing sound near your ears isn’t your imagination. Mosquitoes are sneaky but often give themselves away with their high-pitched hum. If you hear them regularly inside or around your home, it’s time to take action before the population worsens.
3. Standing Water Around Your Property
Mosquitoes breed in standing water. Stagnant water provides the perfect mosquito nursery, whether it's a clogged gutter, birdbath, flowerpot saucer, or puddle in the backyard. You could unknowingly encourage an infestation if you notice standing water lingering after rain or irrigation.
4. Visible Mosquitoes Indoors
Seeing mosquitoes inside your home is a red flag. While it’s not unusual for one or two to sneak in, frequent indoor sightings suggest they may be coming in through open doors, torn screens, or worse—breeding in hidden indoor water sources.
5. Pets Are Scratching More Than Usual
Our furry friends can’t tell us when they’re getting bitten, but their behavior says it all. If your dog or cat constantly scratches, especially after being outside, mosquitoes (or fleas) could be the cause. Mosquito bites can be irritating and even dangerous for pets, spreading diseases like heartworm.
