Picture this: evening barbecues that don’t end with everyone fleeing indoors. Kids playing outside without coming in covered in itchy welts. Relaxing on your patio without constantly swatting and slapping.
That’s what happens when you get real mosquito control instead of temporary fixes. Michigan’s peak mosquito season hits exactly when you want to be outside most – those perfect July and August evenings when humidity and heat create mosquito paradise.
Professional treatment changes everything because we target the source. While DIY sprays might repel mosquitoes for a few hours, we eliminate breeding sites and adult populations, giving you lasting relief that actually lets you use your outdoor spaces.
We’ve protected St. Charles families since 2005. Roger brings 26 years of hands-on experience to every single job, and here’s what makes us different: you get the same technician every visit.
No rotating cast of part-time college students who don’t know your property or your concerns. Your technician learns your specific mosquito problem areas and what works on your land. Awards from Angie’s List and Home Advisor back up what our customers already know – we show up when promised and deliver results.
We’re also one of fewer than 100 companies nationwide offering canine bed bug detection. That specialized expertise approach carries over to everything we do, including mosquito control that’s designed for Michigan’s unique challenges.
Your technician starts with a complete property inspection, identifying every breeding site and mosquito resting area. We’re not just looking for obvious problems – even a forgotten bucket or clogged gutter can produce hundreds of mosquitoes within a week.
Next comes targeted treatment of standing water sources where mosquitoes lay eggs. We treat everything from bird baths and planters to hidden problem spots that most homeowners miss completely.
Then we create protective barriers around your outdoor living spaces. Adult mosquitoes rest in vegetation during the day, so we treat shrubs, trees, and other areas where they hide, eliminating populations before they can bite your family.
Throughout the season, we monitor and adjust our approach. Mosquito pressures change with weather patterns and seasonal cycles, so your technician stays ahead of problems instead of just reacting to them.

Your mosquito control service includes comprehensive treatment of breeding areas, adult populations, and protective barriers around outdoor spaces. We target the entire mosquito lifecycle, not just the adults you can see.
St. Charles properties face specific challenges with Michigan’s humid climate and abundant water sources. Our technicians understand local mosquito species, their breeding patterns, and how seasonal changes affect activity levels throughout your area.
The service automatically includes flea and tick treatment at no extra charge. These pests often share the same outdoor habitats as mosquitoes, so combining treatments gives your family and pets complete protection while delivering better value than separate services.
Most treatments allow you to return to outdoor areas within 2-4 hours. We use EPA-registered products following strict safety guidelines, and we explain exactly what we’re applying and any precautions you should take.
You’ll notice significant improvement within 24-48 hours of treatment. The barrier protection we apply to vegetation starts working immediately when mosquitoes make contact.
Breeding site treatments take slightly longer to show full impact since they’re targeting larvae and eggs. Within a week, you should see dramatic reduction in mosquito activity around your outdoor spaces.
Heavy rainfall can create new breeding opportunities and wash away some treatments, which is why we monitor your property throughout the season. If mosquitoes return between scheduled visits, we come back at no charge to maintain your protection.
Michigan mosquitoes can transmit West Nile virus, Eastern Equine Encephalitis, and Jamestown Canyon virus. West Nile has been detected in our state every summer since 2002, with confirmed human cases reported annually.
Eastern Equine Encephalitis is less common but extremely dangerous – about 30% of infected people die from this virus. Michigan experienced its largest outbreak in 2019 with 10 human cases, including 6 deaths in southwestern counties.
Jamestown Canyon virus typically causes fever, headache, and fatigue, though severe cases can lead to brain inflammation. Professional mosquito control dramatically reduces your family’s exposure by eliminating the breeding populations around your property.
Most St. Charles properties need treatment every 3-4 weeks during active season, which runs from April through October. Peak frequency occurs during July and August when heat and humidity create perfect breeding conditions.
Your specific treatment schedule depends on property conditions and mosquito pressure. Heavily wooded areas or properties with water features might need more frequent attention, especially after periods of heavy rainfall.
Your technician adjusts timing based on mosquito activity and weather patterns. Some years require additional treatments if we experience unusually wet conditions that create excessive breeding opportunities throughout the area.
Yes, our treatments are specifically designed for family safety. We use EPA-registered products and follow strict application guidelines that minimize exposure while maximizing effectiveness against mosquitoes.
Most treatments allow family members and pets to return to treated areas within 2-4 hours. We provide clear instructions about timing and any precautions you should take for your specific situation.
We also offer eco-friendly options for families preferring botanical-based products. These natural alternatives still provide effective mosquito control using plant-derived ingredients rather than synthetic chemicals.
DIY products typically only repel mosquitoes temporarily without addressing the source of your problem. Store-bought sprays might keep mosquitoes away for a few hours, but they don’t eliminate the breeding sites producing hundreds more.
Professional treatment targets the entire mosquito lifecycle – eggs, larvae, and adults. We find and treat breeding sources that most homeowners miss completely, like clogged gutters, plant saucers, and low-lying areas that collect rainwater.
Our technicians also understand mosquito behavior specific to Michigan. We know which species are active when, where they prefer to breed, and how weather affects their populations – knowledge that’s essential for effective long-term control.
Yes, if mosquitoes return between scheduled treatments, we come back at no charge to address the problem. We stand behind our work because we use proven methods that consistently deliver results.
Our guarantee covers the areas we’ve treated, assuming you follow basic maintenance like eliminating obvious standing water. We can’t control mosquitoes flying in from neighboring untreated properties, but we maintain protection around your outdoor living spaces.
Most customers see 85-90% reduction in mosquito activity around treated areas. If you’re not satisfied with the control level we’re providing, we’ll adjust our approach or work with you to find solutions that meet your expectations.
