Mosquitoes Control Blacktown
We provide the best mosquito control services in Blacktown to protect your home or business from these annoying and harmful insects.
Our technicians inspect gutters, pots, garden irrigation and other water traps to find and remove breeding hotspots before treatment begins.
We use an integrated program — removing sources, applying eco-certified larvicides where needed, and targeted barrier sprays for immediate relief.
After service we provide simple steps for residents and landlords to reduce future risk and we offer follow-up visits to confirm results.
Once the inspection has been completed, we will create a mosquito pest control plan that aims to remove them from your environment. This plan will include what type of mosquito treatment will be required, the expected timeline of the treatment, specific instructions to the property’s occupants to follow, the expected outcome, and other information.
The mosquito control exterminators at Sydney Pesties Pest Control use various techniques to do our job. This includes physical control methods, biological control methods, pesticides, and fogging. Our number one concern is the health and wellbeing of our customers. For this reason, we prefer to use methods that don’t involve chemicals. But when we do have to use pesticides, we choose products that are safe and certified.
Mosquitoes thrive in outdoor spaces, especially areas with standing water or dense vegetation.
Mosquitoes are attracted to dark areas, not bright lights, making well-lit spaces less appealing to them.
Mosquitoes require standing water to breed, making it essential to eliminate any water sources to control them
Mosquitoes lay eggs in standing water, where they hatch into larvae before developing into adults.
When mosquitoes find their way inside your home through an open door or window, they usually rest in dark, hidden areas, but will come out at night in search of a blood meal. Homeowners sometimes find mosquitoes under sinks or in closets and laundry rooms.
Mosquitoes breed in standing water, so properties near ponds, marshes, and depressions that collect rainwater are at risk. Some mosquito species are active at different times of the day, but most emerge just before dusk and are active at night.
Mosquitoes are best known for the habits of the adult females which often feed on blood to help generate their eggs. The lesser-known side is that mosquito adults, males and females, also feed on nectar from flowers. Their immature stages usually are located in standing, preferably stagnant, water. The larvae feed on variety of materials, depending on species.
Most consume organic flotsam and tiny aquatic organisms. However, some species are predatory and will consume other mosquitoes. Adult mosquitoes prefer to be most active from dusk until dawn but can become active with sufficient cloud cover or in dark shady areas. They do not prefer to be active in the sunshine since they may desiccate and die.

Mosquitoes can be confused with flies. Mosquitoes have long legs, and a long proboscis or “nose” that female mosquitoes use to “bite” people and pets to draw blood, needed to lay eggs. Most flies won’t bite and even long-legged flies are usually much smaller than mosquitoes. Mosquitoes are pesky pests and can spread disease such as West Nile Virus, dengue and malaria. More commonly, though, mosquitoes threaten family events more than health.
