A Warm Welcome to New Team Members

Our TeamJeff Emerson

A Warm Welcome to New Team Members

We at Mosquito Enemy are proud to announce the addition of two new team members:unnamed-150x84

The first addition to the Mosquito Enemy team is 19-year-old UMass Lowell student Tyler Haase. Haase is currently working through school towards earning a degree in business. As a member of the Mosquito Enemy team Haase seeks to improve the lives of those in his community. Vector insects—like mosquitoes and ticks—are organisms that can negatively impact the lives of everyone as both pests and disease carriers. Whether it be constantly slapping mosquitoes away or removing ticks off of the family pet, vector insects have affected all our lives. Some people, unfortunately, are affected far worse than others. That’s where Haase and Mosquito Enemy come in. As this summer moves forward Haase and the team look forward to making the North Shore a better place to live through the diligent control of pests like mosquitoes and ticks.

Collins plans to work with the team in bringing new, interesting, and informational content to patrons. Much like Haase, Collins is currently in the process of earning his own degree. Expect more updates to the Mosquito Enemy blog soon!

A Little Rain in Wilmington MA Doesn’t Ruin A Mosquito’s Day

Mosquito InformationJeff Emerson

A Little Rain in Wilmington MA Doesn’t Ruin A Mosquito’s Day

Rain. It cools the earth after a hot summer day and offers a refreshing reprieve from the harsh summer season weather. For humans, rainfall doesn’t do much other than wet your clothes and water your plants. That, however, isn’t the case for many insects. Especially since raindrops weigh about 50 times as much as a mosquito though they are roughly the same size. Rain also falls at such a rate that it’s impossible for the insects to avoid them. Through the compound eyes of a mosquito, a trip out in the rain is more like running out into high-speed traffic.

In spite of that, mosquitoes will often continue their lifelong quest to irritate anyone unlucky enough to become their next meal. Everyone’s least favorite summer pest has evolved a very special way to stay airborne during a rainy day. The mosquitoes of today are built to endure a downpour. Their combined adaptations of a unique exoskeleton and low mass render them impervious to force of falling raindrops.

Recent research has revealed that mosquitoes receive low impact forces from raindrops because the mass of mosquitoes causes raindrops to lose little momentum upon impact.

The studies conducted used high-speed videography to watch mosquitoes in action.

When faced with a rainy situation their body’s take any collisions, relying on their ability break free from the front of the raindrop. Mosquitoes achieve this through the use of their long legs and wings. By utilizing the drag of their appendages, mosquitoes are rotated off the point of contact. When slowed down it looks like the mosquito barely takes a hit at all. Since not much momentum is transferred, the lanky physiology of a mosquito will allow it to recover quickly and go about it’s merry way.

When it comes to getting out and enjoying the summer, mosquitoes don’t let mother nature rain on their parade. So don’t let mosquitoes stop you from enjoying the summer season yourself and call Mosquito Enemy for mosquito control today!

Annoying And Dangerous

Mosquito InformationJeff Emerson

Compared to others, she is relatively tiny. She can lay 300 eggs at once in an area as small as a bottle cap. She injects her victims with an anti-coagulant, stopping the blood from clotting, enabling her to access as much of it as she can take in. She sucks blood but doesn’t depend on it. She would rather store the blood for her young. She and her like have killed more humans than any other living creature on earth, spreading disease in her wake.

Though she seems like a creature from a typical horror story, she is a real-life form, though she is found to be more annoying than she is frightening. But if you knew the above about the backyard pest, the mosquito, you may just take her just a bit more seriously. Her bite, and it is hers, since her male counterpart doesn’t have the same sucking equipment that she does, causes red, itchy, swollen bumps on the human skin. But through that tiny little bite, millions of cases of dengue fever, malaria, West Nile Virus and encephalitis have spread throughout the world and its human population.

Which is exactly why we call ourselves Mosquito Enemy. We want to eradicate as many swarms of these nasty, tiny little beasts as we can. When it comes to mosquito control, we are driven to protect you, your family and even your pets against them and the diseases that they can carry. We are Eastern Massachusetts’  and Andover‘s best in mosquito control. With almost two decades in the pest control business, Mosquito Enemy is a seasoned veteran in the fight against mosquitos and ticks. If you believe you have a problem with either of these pests, call for a personal consultation. We are happy to help with a customized plan to help keep your home and family protected against the tiny yet dangerous creature.

Can a mosquito pass HIV?

Mosquito InformationJeff Emerson

Picture-150x112Can a mosquito pass HIV?

No. Mosquitoes actually digest the virus, so it does not replicate and is broken down before it can be transmitted to someone else. Also, mosquitoes pass such minuscule amounts of blood when biting that infection is not possible. However Mosquito Control is very important to protect your kids and the elderly from other viruses and diseases that these vector insects transfer from a host to you. If you live anywhere in the east coast area of Massachusetts Mosquito Enemy can help you with all your Vector Insect needs.
