Common Mosquitoes in Southern California
Local mosquito problems are increasingly driven by an invasive day-biting species, which changes how we treat.
Aedes (Ankle-biter) Mosquito
an aggressive, invasive day-biter that breeds in tiny amounts of water and is now widespread across Southern California, a potential carrier of viruses like Zika and dengue.
Culex Mosquito
a dusk/night biter that breeds in standing water and can transmit West Nile virus.
Where They Breed: any standing water, saucers, drains, bromeliads, buckets, and clogged gutters.
Because Aedes breed in tiny hidden pools, control depends on finding and treating breeding sites, rather than spraying alone.
Signs of a Mosquito Problem
With invasive Aedes, you’ll often notice the bites before you see the mosquitoes.
- Daytime biting, especially around ankles and legs
- Mosquitoes resting in shady shrubs and ground cover
- Standing water in saucers, drains, or containers
- Itchy bite welts after time in the yard
- Activity from spring through late fall
Why Mosquitoes Are a Growing Problem in Southern California
The invasive Aedes mosquito has spread rapidly across San Diego County and bites during the day, making yards unusable. Our long warm season and irrigated landscaping give mosquitoes months of breeding time, and they need only a bottlecap of water to reproduce.
Because breeding sites are small and hidden, effective control combines source reduction with treating the shaded areas where adults rest.
How Lloyd Pest Control Reduces Mosquitoes
We find and treat breeding sites and knock down the adults resting in your landscaping.
Inspection
we locate breeding sources and the shaded harborage where adult mosquitoes rest.
Source Reduction & Larvae
we eliminate or treat standing-water breeding sites to stop the next generation.
Targeted Treatment
we treat shrubs, ground cover, and resting areas to knock down biting adults.
Ongoing Seasonal Service
recurring visits through mosquito season keep populations low, the core of our plans.
The outcome is a yard you can actually use through the warm months.
Residential Mosquito Control
We protect every kind of Southern California home:
- Single-family homes
- Apartments & condos
- Townhomes & duplexes
Mosquito control is what gives families their backyard back through spring and summer. Because adults are constantly replaced from breeding sites, a recurring seasonal plan is far more effective than a one-time spray for an event.
Choose from:
- One-time treatments for immediate issues
- Recurring, regularly scheduled service for year-round protection (recommended)
Commercial Mosquito Control
Mosquitoes drive guests and customers off patios, grounds, and outdoor venues. Lloyd keeps commercial outdoor spaces usable with seasonal service. We treat:
- Hotels, resorts & pools
- Restaurants & patios
- Schools & childcare grounds
- Apartment & HOA common areas
- Other businesses with outdoor space

Frequently Asked Questions
That’s the invasive Aedes mosquito, which is now common across Southern California and bites during daylight, often around the ankles. It breeds in tiny pools of water around the yard.
We find and eliminate breeding sites (even bottlecap-sized water), treat the shaded areas where adults rest, and keep populations down with recurring seasonal service.
Not permanently, adults are constantly replaced and can fly in from nearby. Ongoing seasonal treatment plus removing standing water keeps them consistently low, which one-time sprays can’t.
Most homes run about $100–$150 per month during mosquito season; larger lots and commercial grounds are higher. A free quote is based on your yard.
Our technicians are trained and licensed, and every product is applied according to its label directions. We use Integrated Pest Management to limit unnecessary applications, focus treatments on the areas where pests travel and nest, and match the product and amount to the specific pest and location. Tell us about your household before the visit and we will plan the treatment around it.
