The season typically (weather depending) is from early April through the end of October. A full season would consist typically of 10-12 treatments. However, we offer prorated seasons for those folks that start with us at different times throughout the year. 

Why some people seem to be more attractive than others to mosquitoes  is the subject of much repellent (and attractant for traps) research being conducted nationwide. Carbon dioxide is the most universally recognized mosquito attractant and draws mosquitoes from up to 35 meters. When female mosquitoes sense carbon dioxide they usually adopt a  zigzagging flight path within the plume to locate its source. Once in the general vicinity of a potential host, other cues predominate, including body odors (sweat, lactic acid, etc.) and heat. Odors produced by skin microflora also play a part in inducing the mosquito to land. Over 350 compounds have been isolated from odors produced by human skin. Either singly or in combination, many of these compounds may be attractants – and many may be repellents. As you can see, the situation is complicated and will require many years of testing before it can be sorted out. Visual stimuli, such as movement, also factor into  host-seeking. What can be safely stated, though, is that ingestion of  garlic, vitamin B12 and other systemics has been proven in controlled  laboratory studies to have no impact on mosquito biting. Conversely, eating bananas did not attract mosquitoes as the myth suggests, but wearing perfumes does. People drinking beer have been shown to be more  attractive to mosquitoes. Limburger cheese has also been found to be  attractive. Scientists have theorized that this may explain the attractant some mosquitoes find for human feet.
