For the next step, compare mosquito control services, read about mosquito prevention for families, or check where Paladin works across Upstate SC.
Mosquito control in the Upstate runs roughly April through October. Two species drive most of our calls: Aedes (daytime biters, container breeders) and Culex (dusk biters, low-water breeders). The guides here cover source reduction, treatment timing, and pet-aware application. This connects closely with mosquito control services when you are comparing next steps.

Mosquitoes questions we hear most
When is mosquito season in the Upstate?
Roughly April through October, with population peaks in mid-summer. The guides here cover treatment timing across that window.
Why is source reduction more important than spraying?
Most yards have one or two specific breeding sources, standing water in containers, clogged gutters, low spots, that drive the population. Removing those does more than any single treatment, as the posts explain.
Are mosquito treatments safe around pets and children?
Paladin uses pet-aware application and re-entry timing; the guides cover what that looks like on a real visit.
