Planning a party, a garden wedding or a big family barbecue in Manly? A pre-event mosquito spray is timed so the yard has as few mosquitoes as possible on the day. It usually combines a barrier spray a few days before the event with fogging on the day or the afternoon before, depending on the size of the yard and the time of year.
When you call, we ask about the date, the start time, where guests will gather and whether there is a marquee, pool or lawn area involved. The crew we book then plans the visit around your setup. A pre-event job may include:
- A yard walk a few days before to find breeding water
- A barrier spray on hedges, fences and shady areas
- Larvae treatment of ponds or drains if needed
- Fogging close to the start of the event
- Advice on lighting, fans and where to place food
Timing matters. Mosquitoes are most active from late afternoon into the night, so evening events near the bay gain the most. Book at least a week or two ahead in summer, as weekends fill up quickly. On the day, keep food covered or inside until the fog has settled and give the crew clear access to the yard. Pets should stay inside during the treatment. If the event runs into the night, ask about fans and yellow globes for the deck.
A spray will not clear every mosquito from a bayside yard, but it can make a real difference to how many guests notice them. To book a pre-event mosquito spray in Manly, call 07 3543 7771 with your date and we will give you upfront pricing.
