Public Health Threat
Mosquitoes continue to be a major public health concern. Some mosquito species, particularly Aedes and Culex, are responsible for transmitting diseases such as West Nile Virus, Zika, Chikungunya, and Dengue Fever. In the U.S. alone, there were 6,076 locally acquired cases of Dengue Fever and 1,410 cases of West Nile Virus in 2024 (1). As global health challenges continue to evolve, mosquitoes remain a persistent nuisance in many regions. The need to effectively and sustainably reduce the mosquito population around homes and properties has never been more urgent, as the risk of disease transmission remains a significant public health issue.
Growing Market & Increased Customer Awareness
Mosquito control services are one of the fastest-growing segments of the pest control industry, driven by consistently increasing demand.

What is Required?
Dual-Target Self-Spreading System
The system consists of an In2Care Mosquito Station and a refill sachet (In2Mix) that contains the active ingredients: a larvicide and an adulticide. The gauze material in the system allows mosquitoes to spread the biocides to their breeding sites. See how it works!
Important Notes
Dose
The recommended dose is 10 Mosquito Stations per acre, or one per 4,300 sq. ft. Average-sized U.S. yards typically require 2-3 stations to be installed. When adjusting the dose, in addition to square footage, it's important to consider surrounding landscape elements (e.g., shrubbery, trees, water features) and the type of location (e.g., residential, commercial, golf course, etc.). Keep in mind that the use of the In2Care Mosquito Station—whether as a standalone solution or integrated with other mosquito control treatments—depends on factors such as:
- Mosquito population density
- Mosquito species composition*
- Number and size of large water sources
- Customer's budget and expectations
*The In2Care Mosquito Station specifically targets (and is labeled for) container-breeding Aedes and Culex mosquitoes. Other species, such as floodwater mosquitoes, may continue to be a nuisance.
Expectations Management
The Mosquito Station targets the next generation of mosquitoes, and the larvicide needs time to spread and accumulate. It typically takes 2-3 weeks to see the full impact of the Station. Be sure to manage customer expectations accordingly.
Offering Guarantees
Do not guarantee any pest control treatment as 100% effective. No treatment is completely foolproof.
Timing
Early installation of the In2Care Mosquito Station ensures better mosquito control at the beginning and throughout the mosquito season. The station is typically needed from midFebruary to October in the Southern U.S., although this can vary depending on the region and local weather conditions. In warmer climates, treatments may start earlier or extend later each year. It is recommended to schedule servicing of the station every 4 weeks to maintain effective control, making it essential to keep up with regular treatments for optimal results.
