Why Carlin homes get mosquitoes

The sandy soil and caliche that surrounds Carlin is the starting point. It retains moisture at the foundation line, which is what mosquitoes need to thrive. The desert valleys and mountain ranges adds harborage, and the desert climate keeps the activity going through most of the year. Homes on slab foundations, with crawl spaces, or near the the Colorado River and mountain reservoirs see the heaviest pressure. The older neighborhoods and the newer subdivisions each bring their own pest profile.

Prevention tips for Carlin homeowners

• Empty standing water every few days.
• Clean the gutters and the birdbaths regularly.
• Trim the vegetation where mosquitoes rest.
• Keep the grass cut short.
• Use repellent during peak activity.
