Phoenix Pests the Mosquito Attacks Bringing the West Nile Virus
Please wear mosquito repellant if spending any time outside, especially on the weekends when people tend to play outside a lot. The Maricopa County Vector Control has announced that West Nile Virus (WNV) has been detected in Phoenix area mosquitoes this year. With the cooler weather this year more people will be outside having picnics, enjoying their pools, barbequing, etc… Telling people the importance of using pest and Arizona mosquito control while outside on weekends.
If mosquitoes are still flying there is still a danger from West Nile virus. Infected mosquitoes spread West Nile virus that can cause serious, life-altering, and even fatal disease. Keep using insect repellent, wear long sleeves and long pants and dump out standing water in the yard where mosquitoes can lay their eggs.
The information below outlines Invader Pest Management's Mosquito Control Program.
What You Can Do to Help Fight Mosquitoes
- Empty standing water in old tires, cemetery urns, garbage cans, buckets, plastic covers, toys, or any other container where mosquito larva and pupa live.
- Empty and change the water in bird baths, fountains, wading pools, rain barrels, and potted plant trays at least once a week if not more often.
- Check for irrigation leaks, keep irrigation valve boxes dry, maintain proper water cycles that don't over water and cause standing water.
- Make sure landscaping has proper grading to avoid standing water.
- Drain or fill temporary pools with dirt.
- Keep swimming pools, fountains, treated and circulating. Keep rain gutters unclogged.
- Floor drains, bathtub, shower, and sinks should have water regularly ran through to exchange water in pipe.
- Don't leave dishes, coffee or any unfinished beverages that could create potential breeding site.
- Make sure window and door screens are "bug tight."
- Replace your outdoor lights with yellow "bug" lights.
- Call your city or county to file a complaint, this is also important for tracking purposes.
- In Maricopa County
- File a complaint Call 602-506-6616
- Call Invader Pest Management for Mosquito Control at 623-435-0228.
Mosquito Control Methods
An Integrated Pest Management approach includes surveillance, source reduction, larviciding and adulticiding to control mosquito populations.
- Surveillance - Reporting of mosquito sites, biting, inspection and source location is first step.
- Source Reduction - Controlling water levels - The most important step is to eliminate potential breeding habitats for mosquitoes. Mosquitoes can breed in any puddle that lasts more than 4 days.
- Larviciding –
- Target larvae - Both chemical and biological measures may be employed to kill immature mosquitoes during larval stages. Larvicides target larvae in the breeding habitat before they can mature into adult mosquitoes and disperse.
- Mineral oils and other materials form a thin film on the surface of the water which cause larvae, pupae and emerging adults to drown.
- Adulticiding - Pesticides registered for this use may be undertaken to combat an outbreak of mosquitoes in a community.
West Nile Virus in Arizona and more specifically Maricopa County has become more serious with at least 89 mosquito pools reported.
- Six clinical human cases of WNV have now been reported, including five in Maricopa County and one in Pinal County.
- Most of the cases have neuroinvasive infections (meningitis and/or encephalitis).
- Also reported are thee WNV viremic blood donors identified through the blood screening programs of the blood collection agencies. One of the viremic donors developed clinical illness and is also counted among the six cases.
- All of the cases and viremic donors have occurred within the WVN hot zone in the East Valley (as identified by mosquito surveillance efforts).
