Good mosquito control starts with a walk around your yard, not a spray tank. A spray alone knocks down adult mosquitoes for a while, but new ones keep emerging until their breeding spots are found and handled. Our free yard inspection looks at both before any treatment is chosen. Call us today to see what is driving the mosquitoes on your property.

Culex mosquitoes breed in stagnant water such as storm drains, ditches, and neglected pools, and they bite mostly from dusk into the night. Evening patio time is when most homeowners notice them.
Black-and-white striped Asian tiger mosquitoes bite during the day and breed in small containers like buckets, toys, and flowerpot saucers. A single forgotten bucket can supply a steady stream of new biters.
Wigglers, the larvae that turn into biting adults, develop in standing water within days. Larvicides target them where water cannot be drained, such as ornamental ponds, rain barrels, and low spots.
Mosquitoes are more than an itch here, and local landscapes give them plenty of room to live.
West Nile virus turns up in Tarrant County mosquitoes in most summers, carried mainly by Culex mosquitoes. Most infected people never feel sick, though some become seriously ill. See a doctor if fever follows bites.
Homes that back onto creeks, ponds, or greenbelts sit next to steady water and shade. Mosquitoes from these areas drift into yards at feeding time, so treating your own property’s edge makes a real difference.
During the hottest part of the day, adult mosquitoes rest in shaded, dense shrubs and ground cover. Thick hedges, ivy, and overgrown mulch beds along fences and foundations make ideal hiding places. Thick ivy and overgrown hedges can hide roof rats too, so ask about our same-day rodent removal in Keller if you hear noises overhead.
Mosquito pressure builds quietly, but a few patterns make it obvious:
Each mosquito visit follows the same standards, from scheduling through the follow-up treatments that keep numbers down.
Mosquitoes swarming the patio can make your yard hard to enjoy. We offer same-day and next-day service, so an inspection and first treatment can happen within a day or two of reaching out.
Our business holds a license from the Texas Department of Agriculture’s Structural Pest Control Service, the state program that oversees pest control businesses. You can ask to see license details before any spraying begins.
Heavy storms can wash treatments off leaves sooner than expected. If mosquitoes rebound between scheduled visits, our free re-service guarantee covers a return treatment at no extra charge. The same guarantee applies across our reliable pest protection for Keller properties, not just mosquito treatments.
Treatment options are chosen with families and pets in mind. We spray shrubs and resting areas rather than the lawn where kids play, and ask that children and pets stay off treated plants until they dry.
Each service targets a different stage of the mosquito life cycle or a different kind of outdoor space.
A barrier spray treats the undersides of leaves, shrubs, and fence lines where adult mosquitoes rest during the day. This perimeter spraying creates a treated zone around your patio and play areas.
We tip and drain containers, clear clogged gutters, and flag spots like tarps, toy bins, and AC drip lines that collect water. Anything that cannot be drained gets treated so larvae cannot develop.
Fogging releases a fine mist that quickly knocks down adult mosquitoes in the air and foliage. Its effect does not last long on its own, so we pair it with barrier and breeding site work.
Instead of one-off mosquito treatment, a seasonal program schedules visits at regular intervals through the warm months. Each visit includes a barrier application and a fresh check of breeding spots.
Weddings, graduation parties, and backyard cookouts go better with fewer bites. We schedule a treatment shortly before your event so the yard is at its best when guests arrive.
Every mosquito job follows three steps that target both biting adults and the larvae behind them.
We walk the whole property, checking under decks, behind sheds, and in drainage swales for water that sits longer than a few days. We also note shady resting spots to target with treatment.
Adults are treated where they rest, and larvicide goes into water that cannot be emptied. This Integrated Pest Management approach hits both stages at once, cutting current numbers and slowing the next hatch.
We return on a regular schedule to reapply treatments and recheck the yard. On each visit, we look for new problem spots, like a clogged downspout or a birdbath someone refilled.
Mosquito season in North Texas usually runs from spring into fall, peaking in warm, humid months. Mild winters can stretch activity later into the year.
Most barrier treatments last a few weeks, depending on rain and weather. Seasonal programs time each visit to renew protection before it wears off.
Many mosquitoes avoid midday heat and feed when temperatures drop and the air is calmer. Wearing long sleeves outdoors at those times helps.
Our products are EPA-registered and applied according to label directions. Keep kids and pets off treated areas until the spray has dried.
If evenings on the patio have turned into a fight with mosquitoes, a closer look at your yard is the first step. Our free inspection finds where mosquitoes rest and breed. Then we recommend the right mix of barrier spray, larvicide, and follow-up visits. Book your free yard inspection and start backyard mosquito control in Keller that fits how you use your outdoor space.
Mosquitoes are only one of the pests that make North Texas yards less comfortable. We also provide termite, rodent, ant, scorpion, and cockroach control for homes and businesses. Fire ants in the lawn and scorpions under rock borders are two other yard problems we treat. Mention anything else you are seeing during your mosquito inspection, and we will add it to your plan.
