Between the Tennessee River, Wheeler Lake, countless creeks, and Madison County's humid summers, Huntsville is mosquito paradise. Our seasonal treatment programs let you enjoy your outdoor space without becoming a blood meal.
Start Treatment: (938) 212-0126If you've spent a summer evening in your Huntsville backyard, you know our mosquito problem is intense. There's a reason for that—our geography creates ideal breeding conditions.
Alabama reports cases of West Nile virus every year—Madison County included. While rare, Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE) also occurs in our region. Beyond disease, mosquito bites cause itching, swelling, and can trigger allergic reactions. Protecting your family from mosquitoes is a health issue, not just a comfort issue.
Asian Tiger Mosquitoes (Aedes albopictus) — Aggressive daytime biters with distinctive black-and-white striped legs. Introduced to the US in the 1980s, they've become the dominant nuisance mosquito in Huntsville. They breed in tiny containers—bottle caps, plant saucers, clogged gutters—making them hard to control at the source.
Southern House Mosquitoes (Culex quinquefasciatus) — The primary West Nile virus vector in our area. They're dusk-to-dawn biters that breed in stagnant, organically-rich water like storm drains, catch basins, and neglected pools.
Floodwater Mosquitoes — Multiple species that emerge in massive numbers after heavy rains. They breed in flooded fields, ditches, and low-lying areas common throughout the Tennessee Valley.
Our most popular option. We treat your property every 3-4 weeks from April through October—the entire mosquito season. Each visit includes:
Most Huntsville customers see 85-90% reduction in mosquito activity within 24-48 hours of each treatment.
Hosting a graduation party, wedding, or outdoor event? We'll treat your property 24-48 hours beforehand for maximum protection. One-time treatments provide 2-3 weeks of reduced activity—perfect for that important outdoor gathering.
Popular for events at private homes, outdoor venues, and anywhere you want guests comfortable.
Not ready for a seasonal program? A single treatment knocks down current populations and provides several weeks of relief. Many customers start here, then move to seasonal service once they experience the difference professional treatment makes.
Mosquitoes don't fly far from where they rest during the heat of the day. Our treatment targets these harborage areas:
Professional treatment is highly effective, but eliminating breeding sites on your property extends protection:
You'll notice significant reduction within 24-48 hours as mosquitoes contact treated surfaces. The barrier continues working for 3-4 weeks under normal weather conditions. Heavy rain can reduce effectiveness, which is why our seasonal program includes re-treatment as needed.
Yes. We use EPA-registered products and follow all label safety guidelines. We ask that people and pets stay off treated areas until dry (typically 30-60 minutes). Once dry, the product binds to surfaces and isn't available for contact exposure. Many products we use are the same active ingredients used in flea treatments for pets.
We take pollinator safety seriously. We don't spray blooming flowers, and we treat in early morning or evening when pollinators aren't active. The products we use break down quickly in sunlight. While no pesticide is completely selective, our application methods minimize impact on beneficial insects.
Yes. Asian tiger mosquitoes (the main nuisance species) typically fly only 100-200 yards from where they hatch. Treating your property creates a barrier even if neighboring properties have mosquitoes. You may see some activity from mosquitoes crossing property lines, but dramatically less than without treatment.
Automated misting systems can be effective but have drawbacks: high installation cost, ongoing chemical expense, potential for pollinator harm, and mechanical maintenance. Our barrier spray program achieves similar results at lower cost with more targeted application. That said, we can service existing misting systems if you have one.
In Huntsville, mosquitoes become active when temperatures consistently reach 50°F—typically late March or early April. Starting treatment early prevents populations from building. Most customers begin seasonal service in April and continue through October.
Don't spend another summer swatting mosquitoes. Professional treatment makes outdoor living enjoyable again.
