Fort Worth Mosquito Control

http://buzzkillpestcontrol.com/mosquitocontrol.html

Mosquito Season Arrives Early in the U.S., Yet Almost 80 Percent of Americans Rarely Protect Themselves with Repellent

Dallas and Fort Worth both have big mosquito problems. I'd be surprised if that regions sales are down too.

Buzz Kill Pest Control provides Dallas mosquito misting systems and Dallas mosquito control to residential and commercial properties.

press release

July 19, 2011, 12:41 p.m. EDT

Recent Survey by Cutter(R) Insect Repellent Shows Limited Insect Repellent Use

ST. LOUIS, Jul 19, 2011 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- An unseasonably wet spring has resulted in a heavier mosquito season across the United States. As a result, cases of West Nile virus are being reported throughout the country.

In a recent Cutter Insect Repellent survey, two-thirds of people said getting an insect bite negatively affects their day. However, only 14 percent actually use insect repellent all or most of the time. And with the risk of West Nile virus and other diseases, using personal or area insect repellents provides critical protection from insect bites.

"Many parents ask me, 'How do I keep my kids safe while they're outside?'" said Dr. Gwenn O'Keeffe, pediatrician and founder of PediatricsNow.com. "While it's important to stay hydrated and apply sunscreen, the tip most parents forget is simply to apply insect repellent."

According to the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC), 82 percent of U.S. states were affected by West Nile virus in 2010. Serious symptoms include high fever, headaches, tremors, vomiting and even death. Other insect-transmitted diseases, including Dengue fever and Lyme disease, can be just as dangerous. The CDC cites personal repellent use as the single most effective way to reduce risk, yet 79 percent of American adults report never using insect repellent or using it "once in a while."

Dr. Gwenn adds, "As a pediatrician and as a mom, I get questions all the time about the correct insect repellent to use. And while it's really more a matter of preference and the type of activity you're planning, the most important thing is to be sure to use one."

There is a variety of repellent choices, depending on setting and length of time outdoors. Ranging from the familiar DEET to newer ingredients like Picaridin to natural solutions, there's a repellent for every occasion and family member:

-- DEET: CDC-recommended; effective, dependable protection for 2 to 10 hours (depending on percentage of DEET included); appropriate for children ages 2 months or older.

-- Picaridin: CDC-recommended; light feel with odorless protection for 4 to 10 hours; appropriate for children ages 2 months or older; doesn't harm synthetic materials.

-- Oil of Lemon Eucalyptus & Oil Derived from Geraniums: Offers natural, plant-based protection for 2 to 6 hours; appropriate for children 3 years and older; doesn't harm synthetic materials.

Eddie Baggs: Take the bite out of mosquito season with prevention methods

12:05 AM CDT on Sunday, May 1, 2011

Eddie Baggs

Mosquitoes can ruin the best-laid outdoor summer plans, because not only do they produce a painful bite during feeding, but they can transmit West Nile virus to humans and horses, and heartworms to dogs.

With temperatures above 70 degrees and heavy rains, mosquito populations will soar.

The best control is eliminating breeding sites. Mosquitoes like shallow standing water in areas such as old tires, cans, bottles, birdbaths, flower pots, poorly draining gutters and hollowed-out tree stumps, or any standing shallow water that also has organic matter. Mosquitoes can breed in any puddle that lasts more than four days. Mosquitoes rarely breed in pools or large bodies of water because they are too deep. Ponds usually contain fish and minnows that will keep mosquitoes in check.

For larger bodies of water that cannot be drained — such as shallow ponds, ditches or low areas — “doughnuts” or “mosquito dunks” can be used. These larvicides contain bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) and are highly effective. Bt is an environmentally friendly, natural, nonpolluting, bacterially produced chemical. These products are applied directly to the water, killing all fly larvae including mosquitoes and are safe for use around animals.

Temporary outdoor suppression may include aerosol foggers; however, this is short-lived, and mosquitoes will continue to return until breeding sites are eliminated. Candles and torches do not provide much control. Bug zappers attract mosquitoes to the yard but are not a complete control method. They usually kill more beneficial insects than problem insects.

Horses can be vaccinated for West Nile. Dogs can be checked for heartworms and given a preventative treatment. Children can be sprayed with insect repellents. But the most important step any property owner can take to control mosquito populations is to remove all man-made sources of stagnant water in which mosquitoes could breed.

How to Bug Bugs - US News and World Report

By Laura Sanders, Science News

Bug dope is loathsome to insects in all sorts of ways, new research finds.

Insects are known to intensely dislike the smell of the common repellent DEET, but they also hate the taste of it, a study appearing online August 25 in Neuron shows. And the lemony-fresh molecule citronellal stinks in two very different ways, a study appearing the same day in Current Biology finds.

A thorough understanding of exactly what makes these repellents nasty could lead to a new generation of bug dopes in the future, which would more effectively reduce the spread of diseases such as malaria and dengue fever.

The research “hopefully points more and more toward a new horizon for replacements for things like DEET that will have higher effectiveness, lower toxicity and more environmental friendliness,” says molecular neuroscientist Laurence Zwiebel of Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tenn., who was not involved in the current studies.

DEET, the main component in popular insect repellents, has been warding off mosquitoes for about 50 years now. It works presumably through its smell, but exactly how it repels insects has remained unclear, says Craig Montell of Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore, who is a coauthor of both studies.

Using fruit flies as stand-ins for mosquitoes, Montell and his colleagues wanted to know whether insects might be able to taste the repellent as well as smell it. Flies avoided drinking sugar water laced with DEET, the team found. To rule out the sense of smell, the researchers genetically engineered fruit flies that lacked a functional version of an important smell receptor. Those nonsmelling flies still avoided the DEET-laced sugar water, suggesting that some other sense was also at work.

Further experiments showed that three specific proteins — all of which respond to bitter tastes — responded to DEET. When the researchers disrupted these taste receptors, the flies no longer stayed away from the DEET, suggesting that normally, the flies were tasting the nasty chemical. The results, published in Neuron, show that DEET is “working though two senses, not just one sense,” Montell says.

When a female mosquito lands on skin, she uses special taste neurons on her body to determine whether there’s good eating to be had. Since the mosquito tastes before she chomps down, she might be persuaded to leave without eating.

“The first line of defense is you want to keep the bugs away from you,” Montell says. “But even if they do land on you, because DEET is also detected through the sense of taste, it also provides some protection by preventing them from biting.”

Although the DEET study was done on fruit flies, which are easier to genetically engineer than mosquitoes, the researchers think that mosquitoes and other biting insects, such as ticks, fleas or chiggers, may also taste and smell repellants in a variety of ways.

Montell’s Current Biology study focused on a different bug deterrent: citronellal, the lemon-scented botanical chemical that is common in tiki torches and outdoor candles. Vapor containing citronellal repulses fruit flies in two very different ways, the researchers found. One way is through a smell receptor, and the other is through a receptor called TRPA1. TRPA1 is also found in mosquitoes and humans, and it senses other noxious stimuli, including painful cold sensations, sharp needle pokes and the spicy compound in chili peppers. When the researchers genetically interfered with either TRPA1 or the smell receptor, the flies no longer avoided citronellal, suggesting that both were required for the aversion.

Knowing exactly how DEET and citronellal are repulsive to bugs could allow researchers to uncover better repellents that trigger the same reaction, Montell says. “This opens the possibility of screening through literally hundreds of thousands of compounds to find more effective repellents.”

Mosquito Disease ~ Dallas Mosquito Control Mosquito Misting

Description and Habits

Adult mosquitoes are about 1/4-inch long, with long legs, a pair of clear wings and a slender body. The body and wing veins are covered with scales. The Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus (Skuse), was first detected in Texas in 1985 and is now a wide-spread and common species. It is distinctly black with white markings on the body and legs. The thorax is marked with a single white stripe down the middle.

Females of "standing water" mosquito species (Anopheles, Coquilettidia, Culiseta, Culex species) deposit masses of eggs in "rafts" on the water surface, while "floodwater" species (Aedes, Psorophora species) lay eggs either on plants on or below a still water surface or in moist soil depressions that will be subject to later flooding. Time for eggs to hatch varies with species from 16 to 24 hours to more than two years for floodwater mosquitoes.

Habitat and Food Sources

Blood-feeding females have piercing-sucking mouth parts and usually must ingest a blood meal in order to develop eggs. Males, as well as females, sip nectar, honeydew and fruit juices.

Mosquito species vary in aquatic larval habitats, ranging from ponds, puddles, containers and tree holes to other sources of standing, slow moving, fresh or salty water. Large numbers of mosquitoes can develop in swamps, tidal marshes, flood water and rice fields. Male mosquitoes swarm in "clouds" to attract females. Mosquitoes can fly and disperse with the wind.

Bites and Diseases

Adult females bite and may transmit diseases such as malaria, filariasis, West Nile, arthropod-borne viruses such as yellow fever, denge and encephalitis. Saliva, injected by females while engorging on blood causes itching. There are about 55 species of mosquitoes in Texas (170 species nationally).
