If your yard in North Brisbane seems to have far more mosquitoes than the neighbours, the answer is often a breeding spot you have not found yet. A mosquito yard inspection is a visit focused on finding those spots. The crew we book walks the whole property, looks in the places people tend to miss and gives you a plain run-down at the end.
Only a small amount of still water is needed for mosquitoes to breed, and on older northside homes there are plenty of nooks where water can sit. The inspection usually covers:
- Gutters, box gutters, downpipes and roof valleys
- The space under the house, including pits and stored items
- Bromeliads, palms and pot plants with saucers
- Tank screens, overflow pipes and rain barrels
- Drains, ponds, water features and low spots in the lawn
- Boats, trailers, tarps and outdoor toys
The crew tips out anything that can be emptied as they go and points out things to fix, such as a sagging gutter or a torn tank screen. They also show you where adult mosquitoes are resting, so you can see whether a barrier spray would help. You are not locked into any further treatment, and many people are surprised how much they can fix themselves once they have seen the spots.
An inspection suits people who have just bought or rented an older home with a big garden, people who have just moved in, renters with a big garden, and anyone who wants to tackle the problem themselves before paying for a spray. Many people book it early in spring before numbers build. Call 07 3543 7770 to book a mosquito yard inspection in North Brisbane with upfront pricing.
