Mosquitoes

  • Adaptable, living in shade or sunny areas and breed in stagnant water within one week.
  • Can be active both in the day and night, and can fly a few kilometers.
  • Mosquitoes seek their prey by the exhaled carbon dioxide and warmth of our bodies.

Type of common mosquitoes

There are more than 3,000 species of mosquitoes, but the members of three bear primary responsibility for the spread of human diseases.

Anopheles mosquito

Anopheles mosquito

The only species known to carry malaria. They also transmit filariasis (also called elephantiasis) and encephalitis.

Aedes mosquito

Aedes mosquitoes

Which the voracious Asian tiger is a member, carry yellow fever, Dengue, Zika and encephalitis.

Culex mosquitoes

Culex mosquitoes

Carry encephalitis, filariasis, and the West Nile virus.

Behaviour of Mosquitoes

  • Mosquitoes use exhaled carbon dioxide, body odors and temperature, and movement to home in on their victims.
  • Only female mosquitoes have the mouth parts necessary for sucking blood. When biting with their proboscis, they stab two tubes into the skin: one to inject an enzyme that inhibits blood clotting; the other to suck blood into their bodies.
  • They use the blood not for their own nourishment but as a source of protein for their eggs. For food, both males and females eat nectar and other plant sugars.

Reproduction Process

A female mosquito lays eggs directly on or near water, soil and at the base of some plants. The length of time to hatch depends on water temperature, food and type of mosquito. The eggs hatch in water and a mosquito larva or “wriggler” emerges. The life cycle typically takes up 2 weeks but depending on conditions, it can range from 4 days to as long as a month.

Potential risks they pose

  • Disease transmitters

    Transmitter of numerous human diseases which can cause death if untreated, such as: Malaria & Dengue.

  • Suck blood

    Seek out humans for a blood meal.

Control Method

Sanitation of the compound to avoid potential breeding area.

Aedestech Mosquito Home System uses natural ingredients to lure Aedes Mosquitoes into the Mosquito Home to lay eggs. The secret formulation will block the growth of micro-organism, thereby limiting food supply for larvae - suppresses their survival rate. It also destroys the composition of adult mosquitoes' hormones, thus retarding their breeding abilities.

Fogging and Larviciding.
