Maintenance of the MosquitoNix® system
is relatively simple for continuous mosquito
prevention. It involves regular refill
of the insecticide drum, and annual winterization/de-winterization
maintenance. The frequency of your refills will
be dependent on the number of nozzles, size of
mist system and the duration and frequency of mosquito
misting for mosquito control.
Includes refill of reservoir drum and full diagnostic
check of system. Customer’s responsibility
to contact MosquitoNix®
once low level light is activated
Includes flushing system with a special protective
additive, and winter maintenance of the suction
line and the pull float switch.
MosquitoNix® includes this service in all full service contracts.
Replace the float assembly, provide a full system
check (nozzles, motor, tubing), completely top
off drum (pro-rated refill charge), and activation
of mosquito prevention system.
MosquitoNix® includes this service in all full service accounts.
It is recommended that the following physical
mosquito prevention and
mosquito control measures be performed
in conjunction with the MosquitoNix®
mosquito misting system.
Adult mosquitos prefer to rest
on weeds and other vegetation. It is advised that
areas of heavy vegetation adjacent to the foundation
be reduced as much as possible, particular attention
should be paid to shaded areas.
Remove and dispose of tin cans, buckets, unused
plastic swimming pools or other containers that
may hold as little as ½ inch of water.
Do not allow water to accumulate in flowerpot
saucers, pet dishes or similar vessels for more
than two days.
It is very important to keep rain gutters free
of debris to prevent backup, this is a very common
breeding ground.
Check areas near water faucets, air conditioners
and overflows to make certain water accumulations
do not occur. Identify and fill low spots in the
lawn that are prohibiting proper drainage.
Change the water in birdbaths and wading pools
at least once a week. Stock ornamental pools with
top feeding predacious minnows known as mosquito
fish, or place mosquito dunks per label instructions.
Fill tree holes and stumps with mortar or sand.
Check for trapped water in plastic or canvas tarps
used to cover boats, pools, etc. Situate the cover
to insure proper drainage. Consider adjusting
sprinkler settings in areas that never dry out.
