Frequently Asked Questions
Do barrier sprays even work in Florida?
Florida's density of standing water means mosquitoes re-infiltrate from neighboring properties, which is why the re-spray cadence matters more here than in northern states.
How long does a treatment last in summer rain?
Ask each provider to give a written expectation for the exact Mosquito Squad and Mosquito Shield product or service being proposed. Clarify preparation, site conditions, maintenance and exclusions that could affect the result or schedule.
Is the natural/botanical option worth it?
Compare Mosquito Squad and Mosquito Shield on service model, typical per-visit price, natural/botanical option, using the actual models or local proposals. Ask for supporting documentation and a written explanation of how the proposed option meets your needs.
What should I pay in Florida?
Get both companies to quote your actual lot; territory pricing varies.
Can I just do this myself?
If you're only fighting mosquitoes for a monthly barbecue, DIY is fine; for a usable backyard all summer, the pros' truck-mounted misting and residual products are a different tier.
