Yes, the desert has a mosquito problem. Monsoon storms leave standing water in flower pots, French drains, clogged gutters, and forgotten kiddie pools — and that's all Aedes aegypti needs. This is the mosquito that bites ankles in broad daylight, breeds in a bottle cap of water, and rarely flies more than a couple hundred feet from where it hatched. If you're getting eaten in your own backyard, the source is probably in your own backyard.

The stakes are higher than itchy ankles. Maricopa County is one of the country's worst hotspots for West Nile virus, which is carried by Culex mosquitoes that breed in the same neglected water. Knocking down the mosquito population around your home is a health measure, not just a comfort upgrade.

NEARPEST attacks both sides of the problem: we find and eliminate the breeding sources on your property, then treat the shaded resting spots — dense shrubs, under decks, around patios — where adult mosquitoes wait out the heat.

What we do

Source elimination first

Spraying without finding the standing water is a treadmill. We inspect drains, trays, gutters, and low spots, and either dump, treat, or flag every breeding site.

Barrier treatment

We treat vegetation and shaded resting areas where adult mosquitoes hide during the day, so the population drops and stays down between visits.

Built for monsoon season

Service runs April through October — exactly when Arizona mosquitoes do. It can be bundled with monthly pest protection or quoted as a seasonal add-on.

Free re-service

Big storm fills the yard with water and the bites come back early? We come back out between visits at no charge. Every plan includes that.

Larvicide for water you can't drain

Fountains, low French drains and catch basins that always hold water get treated at the larval stage, so mosquitoes never take wing.

The weekly water dump

We show you the containers to empty every week, the cheapest mosquito control there is, and handle the sources you can't tip out.

Seasonal add-on, honest timing

Mosquito service is quoted as an April-through-October add-on, not a year-round bill for a pest that isn't flying in January.

Know your enemy: Aedes vs. Culex

Aedes aegypti is the daytime biter making your patio unusable. It's a container breeder — plant saucers, toys, buckets, and drain boxes are its nurseries — and it lives close to where it hatched. That's actually good news: control your property's water and you control most of your bites.

Culex mosquitoes are the evening biters and the West Nile vector. Maricopa County leads the nation in West Nile activity in bad years, and the county's own surveillance traps regularly light up across the East Valley after monsoon storms.

Our program targets both: larval sources so mosquitoes never take wing, and adult resting sites so the ones flying in from the neighbor's yard don't stick around.

What a season of service looks like

We start with a full property walk: irrigation boxes, French drains, gutters, fountains, anything that holds water for more than a few days. You get a straight list of what we found and what we did about it.

From April through October we return on schedule to retreat resting areas and recheck sources, because monsoon weather rewrites the map every few weeks. Between visits, re-service is free if mosquitoes flare up.

Mosquito season service can be bundled with monthly general pest control or quoted as a seasonal add-on. Contact us and we'll get your yard back before the next storm does.

The standing water you keep missing

Aedes aegypti does not need a pond. It needs a bottle cap of water, and it breeds in volumes people never check: plant saucers, the tray under a potted cactus, toys, buckets, tarps, pet bowls, clogged gutters, and low French-drain boxes that hold water for days after you irrigate.

Because it rarely travels more than a couple hundred feet from where it hatched, daytime bites in your yard almost always mean a source in your yard. The cheapest thing you can do is walk the property weekly and tip out anything holding water. We treat the sources you cannot dump.

Why fogging alone never fixes it

A one-time fog knocks down the adults flying at that moment and does nothing to the larvae in the drain box or the eggs on a dry saucer's rim. Aedes eggs can sit dry for months and hatch when water returns, so the population rebuilds within days.

Real control hits two stages at once. We eliminate or larvicide the breeding sources so a new generation never matures, and we treat the shaded resting spots where adults wait out the heat. Closing the nursery and killing the adults together is what makes it last.

Landscaping that feeds a mosquito problem

Adult mosquitoes spend the hot part of the day hiding from the sun, and a lush, over-watered yard gives them everywhere to do it. Dense hedges, thick ground cover, and shady corners that stay humid are all daytime refuge. Over-running irrigation keeps foliage damp and pools water.

You do not have to tear out the landscaping. Thin the densest shrubs so sun reaches the interior, water deeply and less often, and keep gutters and drain boxes clear. We target the resting zones on every visit, and a yard not built to shelter mosquitoes holds results far longer.

Questions, answered

When is mosquito season in the Phoenix area?

Roughly April through October, peaking during and after monsoon season in late summer. That's why our mosquito service runs exactly that window — paying for winter mosquito treatments in Arizona would be paying for nothing.

Why am I getting bitten during the day?

That's Aedes aegypti, an aggressive daytime biter that breeds in small containers and stays close to home. Daytime bites usually mean a breeding source within a couple hundred feet — often on your own property.

Is West Nile virus actually a risk here?

Yes. Maricopa County is consistently one of the most active West Nile counties in the United States, with cases nearly every year. Reducing mosquitoes around your home genuinely reduces that exposure.

Will one treatment fix my mosquito problem?

One treatment knocks the population down; it doesn't keep it down through monsoon season. Mosquitoes re-breed in days when water returns. That's why we run recurring in-season service with free re-services between visits.

How long does a barrier treatment last?

Typically a few weeks, which is why in-season service runs on a schedule. Arizona sun breaks products down and monsoon storms refill every low spot, so the resting zones need refreshing. Between visits, if a storm brings the bites back early, re-service is free.

Can you treat my pond, fountain or pool?

Fountains and features that always hold water can be handled at the larval stage so they stop producing mosquitoes. A pond with fish is best left to the fish, and a chlorinated, circulating pool does not breed mosquitoes at all. It is neglected, still water that becomes a nursery.

Will mosquito treatment harm bees or my garden?

We treat the shaded resting sites mosquitoes hide in, not blooming flowers where pollinators forage, and we apply at label rate. Timing and placement keep the impact on bees low. If you keep hives or a pollinator garden, tell us and we route around them.
