Did you know that mosquitoes go through four distinct stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult? https://bit.ly/4dBMtb2 Each stage offers unique opportunities for intervention. Dive into our blog post to discover how you can break the cycle and keep your outdoor spaces mosquito-free. It's not just about dealing with the problem; it's about understanding it. #MosquitoLifecycle #EffectiveControl #StLouisMO #StLouisMosquitoRemoval #MosquitoFree #TickFree #MosquitoAuthority

A classroom discussion on the current insect apocalypse yesterday in my RVN2001 The Great Extinction module made me realised that an opinion piece that I wrote eight years ago is still just as relevant today: https://lnkd.in/gHN5tV56 Fogging is the least effective and most toxic form of mosquito control available. Fogging puts our own life at risk, while dispersing mosquitos rather than killing them. Fogging near water bodies is even more deadly, as it threatens the survival of natural predators of mosquitos. Dragonflies eat up to 150 mosquitos a day, and dragonfly larva eat about the same amount of mosquito larva in the water. Yet, PUB still has regular fumigation sessions scheduled. Instead the answer would be to create shallow water habitats that attrackt small mosquito eating fish and dragonflies to engage in natural control that does not put the life of humans at risk. #wildlife #nature #pub #nparks #rvrc #ecosystem

"In contrast to the connected areas, the scientists found that isolated parks, which keep animals in and people out, can lead to unsustainable population booms, and in turn sometimes mass deaths or culling." Prof Stuart Pimm, of Duke University in the US, and also part of the team, said: “We need to protect elephants, but we also need to connect them. We have fragmented the world and we need to stitch it back together again.” Isolated and highly protected parks recorded maximum growth rates in some cases and large population increases. But with nowhere to disperse to, dense populations can damage the habitat or force difficult and expensive relocations. Large culls have also been used in the past to control unsustainable numbers. “Improved connections across landscapes are essential for elephants and other species,” she said. “Human activity is increasingly disrupting connectivity, including roads, fences, agriculture and mining. With increasing threats from the climate crisis, habitat connectivity is more important than ever so species can move away from places where conditions are becoming less favourable.” About time for wildlife policy makers and managers in India to take note of and act to ensure connectivity across habitats.

A good news conservation story. I may never see a wild tiger in Thailand but it is good to know they are still here and populations are growing. A combination of rigorous protection and protection of prey species such as sambar deer and banteng appear to be the driving factors. Specifically the relocation of villages encroaching on protected areas and the beefing up of anti-poaching patrols, driven by a co-ordinated strategy. This population growth contrasts sharply with local extinctions in neighbouring Cambodia and Vietnam; hopefully to be reversed (tigers were declared functionally extinct in Cambodia in 2016, however a reintroduction programme is underway; no wild tigers have been recorded in Vietnam since 2009 although a handful may still exist). As with many elusive species, photo-traps have been a game-changer in terms of population assessments. https://lnkd.in/gG2sVJ-3

How do we set up mosquito control lamps for project? For this project layout, we has launched recommendations for the optimal number and placement points of mosquito-killing lamps at the above sites based on its own mosquito-killing model. Mosquito-killing lamp placement is classified according to site usage. Outdoor mosquito-killing lamps consider platforms, drop-off points, The locations are based on factors such as pedestrian passages. There are farmlands and ponds outside some stations, which can easily breed mosquitoes to prevent external mosquitoes from breeding, migrating and invading the high-speed rail station. Therefore, the outdoor mosquito killer lamps are positioned to fully cover the entire high-speed rail station. The spots are placed on the platform according to the Platform length and number. Measure the layout and recommend the optimal number of mosquito killer lamps. The outdoor mosquito killer lamps are placed in shady places with dense green plants and high traffic. We also comprehensively consider the mosquito killer lamps to protect against external mosquitoes. The mosquito killer lamps are designed to surround the venue to prevent external mosquitoes from invading the venue. NOTE: thanks Google map, it really help.

**Introducing BECKON: The Future of Mosquito Control** Summer is a time for joy, outdoor activities, and memorable evenings under the stars. But it’s also the season when mosquitoes decide to join the party uninvited. Don’t let these buzzing invaders turn your summer dream into a nightmare. Meet BECKON, your ultimate ally in the battle against mosquitoes. **Innovative Technology:** BECKON isn’t your typical mosquito control service. We utilize groundbreaking technology that turns the mosquito's natural habitat into their downfall. Our system lures these pests to a specially designed basin using an electromagnetic mesh. This isn’t just any trap; it’s a smart solution that targets mosquitoes at their source. **The BECKON Difference:** Once mosquitoes are lured to the BECKON basin, they come into contact with a larvicide that they then carry back to other breeding sites. It’s like turning mosquitoes into trojan horses against their own kind. This method ensures that the larvicide reaches even the most hidden standing water, effectively controlling the population right at the source. **Safety Meets Efficiency:** At BECKON, we understand the importance of your family’s safety and environmental health. Our larvicide is environmentally friendly and specifically designed to target only mosquito larvae, ensuring the safety of your family, pets, and beneficial insects. **Why Choose BECKON?** - **Targeted Control:** Our technology specifically targets mosquitoes, without harming other wildlife. - **Eco-Friendly:** Safe for your family and the environment. - **Efficient:** Reduces mosquito populations significantly, tackling the problem at its source. - **Convenience:** Our team handles everything from installation to maintenance, leaving you to enjoy your mosquito-free space. Say Goodbye to Mosquitoes the Smart Way: Summer is for barbecues, pool parties, and evenings on the porch, not for battling mosquitoes. BECKON offers more than just mosquito control; we offer peace of mind and the freedom to enjoy your outdoor spaces without worry. #OrangeCountyLiving #OCMosquitoControl #SocalPestFree #OrangeCountyOutdoors #OCHealthyHome #SoCalMosquitoFree #OrangeCountyWellness #OCOutdoorLiving #MosquitoFreeOC #SoCalLiving #OCFamilySafety #OCNaturalSolutions #SafeSummerOC #EcoFriendlyOC #OrangeCountyLife #OCBackyardBliss #PestFreeParadiseOC #OrangeCountyProtection #OCSummerNights #OCCommunityHealth
