On the Gold Coast, mosquito season is long. It usually starts as the weather warms in spring and runs well into autumn, with the worst periods after heavy storms and king tides. A single treatment reduces numbers for a while, but new mosquitoes keep arriving from nearby creeks, canals and neighbouring yards. A seasonal program books several visits across the warm months, so treatment is repeated at the times it matters most. Planning ahead also means you are not scrambling for a booking in the busiest weeks of summer.
The crew we book plans the visits around your property and the time of year. Visits are spaced so a fresh treatment is in place as the weather turns wetter and warmer. A typical program looks like this:
- An early spring visit to check breeding water and spray resting spots
- A mid-summer visit after the wet season storms arrive
- A late summer or early autumn visit if numbers stay high
- Larvae treatment for ponds and drains at each visit
- Extra midge work for homes near canals and mangroves
Each visit is priced upfront and booked as a separate job, so you can stop or change the program at any time. Some households on canal blocks or near the creek mouths book every six to eight weeks through summer, while homes further inland may only need two visits a season. The crew will suggest timing based on what they see, and you decide how often to go ahead. Keeping gutters clear and tipping out water between visits helps keep numbers down.
