Fogging is the quick option. The crew we book releases a fine mist through the garden that drifts into thick plants and knocks down the adult mosquitoes it touches. People in North Brisbane tend to book fogging before a backyard barbecue, a family visit or a long weekend, when they want the yard more comfortable within a day or so. It also suits homes that want a quick reset after a run of storms.
Fogging does not treat breeding water, and it does not keep working for long, so new mosquitoes can move back in within days. It works well for a single event, and even better as an extra step alongside a barrier spray. A fogging visit usually covers:
- A quick walk of the yard to find where mosquitoes gather
- Fogging of garden beds, palms and hedges
- Treating under the house, decks and outdoor furniture
- Pointing out containers and drains holding water
- Advice on timing before your event
The weather matters. Fogging needs calm, dry conditions, because wind carries the mist away and rain washes it off leaves. Everyone, including pets, should be inside with the windows and doors shut while the crew works, and should stay out of the treated area until the mist has settled and the plants have dried. Bring in food, drinks, cushions and pet bowls first, and cover any fish pond if you can.
If you are dealing with mosquitoes for the whole season rather than one night, ask us about pairing fogging with a barrier spray and larvae treatment. Call 07 3543 7770 to book fogging in North Brisbane, tell us your event date, and we will give you upfront pricing and a suitable time.
