Adulticide

ADULTICIDES
Adulticiding is the method of mosquito control most visible to the public.  Adulticiding kills flying mosquitoes when droplets strike them.  While only a temporary form of control, this method can be very effective and economical with proper timing.

Optimum spraying times are when the following conditions occur:
  • Mosquitoes are very active
  • Temperature is 60 to 85 degrees
  • Wind speed is less than 5 mph
  • Begin spraying shortly before sunset and end by midnight.  Spraying in the early morning, starting at sunrise can also be an option but the window of opportunity is short.

Products used in ULV applications for adult mosquito control should be the safest available and leave the lowest amount of residual possible.  We recommend Natural Pyrethrin and Permethrin products for mosquitoes and flies in recreational and residential areas.  They have desirable properties like quick knockdown, low odor, less corrosive, and low mammalian toxicity.

The Adulticides listed below are typically kept in stock.  Other products and sizes are available as well.
Please contact MUG-A-BUG so that we can recommend these or other insecticides based on your specific situation.
