You’ll actually want to spend time outside again. No more rushing from the car to your front door. No more cutting family barbecues short because everyone’s getting eaten alive.
Our mosquito control targets the entire breeding cycle, not just the mosquitoes you can see. We treat standing water sources where they reproduce, vegetation where they rest during the day, and create protective barriers around your outdoor living spaces.
When mosquitoes can’t complete their lifecycle on your property, you get lasting relief that lets you reclaim your summer evenings. Your kids can play outside without coming in covered in bites, and you can host gatherings that people actually enjoy.
First Choice Pest Control has been serving Genesee County since 2005. Roger brings 26 years of hands-on experience to every job, and we’ve built our reputation on understanding exactly what works in this area.
We know that Flint, Grand Blanc, Fenton, and Burton properties each face different mosquito pressures based on proximity to water sources and local terrain. Recent West Nile Virus detections in Genesee County make professional mosquito control more important than ever for protecting your family’s health.
You get the same certified technician every visit – no rotating strangers who don’t know your property or your concerns. We’ve earned awards from Angie’s List and Home Advisor because we show up when promised and deliver results that last.
First, we inspect your entire property to identify breeding sites, resting areas, and conditions that attract mosquitoes. This includes checking gutters, plant saucers, low-lying areas, and vegetation where mosquitoes hide during daylight hours.
Next, we treat standing water sources with larvicides that prevent mosquitoes from completing their development. Adult mosquitoes get targeted with barrier treatments applied to shrubs, trees, and shaded areas where they rest between blood meals.
Finally, we create protective zones around patios, decks, and other outdoor spaces you use most. Our treatments disrupt mosquito behavior patterns and significantly reduce populations rather than just repelling them temporarily. Follow-up visits maintain protection throughout mosquito season, typically from late spring through early fall.

Your mosquito control program includes flea and tick treatment at no additional charge. Since these pests often share similar outdoor habitats, combining services provides better value and more comprehensive protection for your family and pets.
Genesee County’s climate and terrain create ideal conditions for multiple mosquito species that peak at different times throughout the season. Our seasonal programs account for these patterns, adjusting treatment timing and methods based on which species are most active.
We also address the environmental factors that make your property attractive to mosquitoes in the first place. This includes recommendations for drainage improvements, vegetation management, and maintenance practices that reduce future breeding opportunities on your property.
Professional mosquito control significantly reduces your exposure risk to West Nile Virus by eliminating the mosquito populations that carry it. Recent detections in Genesee County make this protection especially relevant for local families.
Our treatments target the specific mosquito species known to transmit West Nile Virus, including Culex pipiens which is Michigan’s primary vector. By disrupting breeding cycles and reducing adult populations, we cut down the chances of infected mosquitoes establishing themselves on your property.
While no treatment can guarantee 100% elimination of disease risk, professional mosquito control is far more effective than DIY approaches for reducing the mosquito populations that pose health threats to your family.
Mosquito control treatments should begin in late May or early June in Genesee County, before mosquito populations peak. Starting early allows us to disrupt breeding cycles rather than just reacting to established infestations.
Michigan mosquito species have different activity patterns throughout the season. Some emerge early in spring from overwintering sites, while others become active later as temperatures warm. Our seasonal programs account for these patterns with treatments spaced at 4-6 week intervals.
Weather conditions affect timing each year, but consistent early-season treatment provides the best protection. We can also provide one-time treatments for special outdoor events like graduation parties or weddings when you need immediate relief.
Yes, our mosquito control treatments are specifically selected and applied to be safe around children and pets when used according to label directions. We use integrated pest management principles that prioritize the safest effective treatments for your situation.
Most treatments allow family members and pets to return to treated areas within a few hours of application. We focus on targeted applications to breeding sites and mosquito resting areas rather than broad-spectrum spraying whenever possible.
Your technician will explain exactly what products we’re using, where we’re applying them, and any precautions you should take. We also offer eco-friendly treatment options for families who prefer botanical-based or low-toxicity solutions that still provide effective mosquito control.
Mosquito control treatments typically provide 4-6 weeks of protection, depending on weather conditions and mosquito pressure in your area. Heavy rains can reduce treatment longevity by washing away barrier applications and creating new breeding sites.
Our seasonal programs account for this with regularly scheduled reapplications throughout mosquito season. This maintains consistent protection rather than letting populations rebound between treatments.
Single treatments can provide temporary relief for special events, but ongoing mosquito control requires regular service. Michigan’s long mosquito season and multiple species make one-time treatments insufficient for season-long protection.
Your mosquito control service includes treatment of breeding areas, barrier protection around your property, and ongoing monitoring throughout the season. We also include flea and tick treatment at no additional charge since these pests often share similar outdoor habitats.
Treatment covers standing water sources where mosquitoes breed, vegetation where they rest, and protective barriers around outdoor living spaces. Your technician identifies and treats gutters, plant saucers, low areas, and other breeding sites specific to your property.
You get the same certified technician for every visit who becomes familiar with your property’s unique mosquito challenges. Follow-up visits maintain protection and address any new breeding sites that develop during the season.
Yes, we provide mosquito control services for commercial properties including restaurants, hotels, event venues, and office complexes throughout Genesee County. Commercial properties often have unique challenges like larger outdoor areas and higher customer expectations.
Our commercial mosquito control programs can be customized for your specific needs and schedule. We understand that customer comfort directly impacts your business, especially for properties with outdoor dining or entertainment areas.
We work with property managers and business owners to develop treatment schedules that minimize disruption to operations while providing effective mosquito control. This includes coordination around special events and peak business periods when mosquito-free outdoor spaces are most critical.
