When Does Mosquito Season Start in Bergen County

Around this time of year folks call us and ask, when does mosquito season start in Ridgewood, Glen Rock, or wherever they happen to live in Bergen county? I tell them, in Bergen county, it’s usually about late April or early May. Then almost always the second question is, when does it end? That answer is usually October. However, Bergen county and New Jersey in general, can have, on occasion, a very warm fall period. So mosquito season may extend later into the year. Mosquitoes don’t really go away until the temperatures are below 50°F on a regular basis.

Mosquitoes and mosquito problems are basically around and active, just when we are. May through October is the time when most of us use the outdoors and our backyards the most. So why not do the most you can to enjoy them. Please check our Mosquito Control page, on this site, for tips on how to limit mosquito breeding areas at your home.

Mosquitoes and Gnats and Ticks, Oh My!!!

We all remember Dorothy walking through the forest in Oz. Fear overcame her when she realized the dark woods might contain lions, tigers, and bears. She skipped and chanted lions and tigers and bears, oh my, becoming more and more fearful. Don't let your fear of mosquitoes, gnats, and ticks ruin your summer fun. Mosquitoes and ticks transmit diseases and gnats are just just a royal nuisance.

Here are some helpful tips. Mow your lawn weekly. I suggest a mowing height of three inches. If your lawn is overgrown it will make a better hiding spot for mosquitoes. Dethatching your lawn periodically will help with the gnats. Boarder areas between lawns and woods are zones where ticks can easily be found. So try to stay out of these area.

Remember, at Keep It Green Landscaping, our spray programs  provide you protection from mosquitoes, gnats, and ticks. Your summer should be filled with fun and memories. Our organic mosquito, gnat, and tick controls are a safe and effective way to keep your backyard from becoming the dark forest.
