West Nile Virus and Mosquito Prevention in Atlanta
Use reliable public-health guidance and personal bite prevention. Yard service is not a disease-prevention guarantee.
Start with public-health guidance
CDC explains that infected mosquito bites spread West Nile virus and recommends bite prevention, including EPA-registered repellents and protective clothing.
For current Atlanta case counts and local alerts, check with public-health authorities.
Keep personal protection in the plan
Household and community mosquito control can help reduce mosquitoes, but no yard service guarantees prevention of infection. Follow public-health advice even on a treated property.
Contact a healthcare professional about symptoms or personal medical risk. We can help with your yard, but medical questions belong with a healthcare professional.
Check your yard for water and shelter
Tell us about water-holding items, resting areas, and where people gather. We can explain the service and maintenance that remains useful between visits.
Ask for realistic expectations and follow-up. Keep following public-health guidance even if your yard is treated.

Why Are Mosquitoes Attracted to Me?
