Why Loudoun County Homeowners Choose Better Termite for Mosquito Control
Loudoun County is one of the fastest-growing counties in Virginia, and its mix of stormwater management ponds, master-planned communities, and 42-45 inches of annual rainfall gives mosquitoes more breeding habitat than most homeowners realize. From the retention basins in Ashburn and Brambleton to the creek corridors winding through Broadlands and South Riding, standing water is everywhere.
Better Termite & Pest Control has been helping Virginia homeowners reclaim their outdoor spaces since 1968. Three generations of the Schulz family have operated this business, and we built an internal research team that reviews every product we apply. That research led us to remove 9 of the harshest chemicals common in the pest control industry and replace them with alternatives like Essentria, Alpine, and EcoVia.
Our Loudoun mosquito control programs run every 21-30 days from April through October. Every plan includes unlimited callbacks at no extra cost, no binding contracts, and a real person who answers the phone when you call at 703-683-2000.

What Makes Loudoun County a Mosquito Hotspot
Loudoun County sits in a humid subtropical climate zone with July highs averaging 88°F and summer humidity regularly topping 70%. These conditions, combined with the county's extensive water features, create a breeding environment that sustains mosquito populations from early April through late October.
Asian tiger mosquitoes are the most aggressive daytime biters in Loudoun. They breed in containers as small as a bottle cap: clogged gutters, bird baths, tire swings, plant saucers, and the thousands of storm drains scattered across communities like Cascades, Countryside, and Lansdowne. Meanwhile, house mosquitoes breed in larger water sources, including stormwater retention ponds, Goose Creek (54 miles of floodplain winding through the county), and the backwater areas along the Potomac River.
Loudoun's rapid development adds another layer. New construction in Brambleton (2,500 acres, 9,000+ homes), South Riding (7,000+ homes), and along the Dulles corridor disrupts drainage patterns and creates temporary standing water. Even Beaverdam Reservoir (350 acres) and the wetlands at Banshee Reeks Nature Preserve (699 acres) contribute to regional mosquito pressure that drifts into nearby neighborhoods.

How Our Loudoun County Mosquito Treatments Work
Every program starts with a thorough property walk. Our licensed technicians identify breeding sites, resting areas, and moisture sources across your lot. In Loudoun's suburban communities, that means checking landscaping beds, under decks and patios, around playground equipment, along fence lines, and in any low spots where water pools after rain.
We then apply targeted barrier treatments using a backpack mist blower to foliage, dense shrubbery, under decks, eaves, and shaded areas where mosquitoes rest during the day. Our spray combines an adulticide that kills mosquitoes on contact with an insect growth regulator (IGR) that stops new mosquitoes from developing. You get fast relief now and fewer mosquitoes over time.
After each visit, we email you a detailed report explaining what was treated, what products were used, and any property-specific recommendations. And because every plan includes unlimited callbacks, we come back at no charge if mosquitoes pick up before your next scheduled visit.
In2Care Stations: Around-the-Clock Mosquito Reduction
The In2Care system works 24/7 between spray visits. These stations attract female mosquitoes to treated gauze containing a larvicide and a mosquito-specific fungus. When mosquitoes enter, they pick up the treatment material and carry it to other breeding spots around your property and your neighbors' yards.
This self-spreading effect extends control well beyond your yard, which matters in Loudoun where stormwater ponds, retention basins, and creek corridors sit within flying distance of most homes. For properties near Beaverdam Reservoir, Algonkian Regional Park (838 acres along the Potomac), or the many tributary streams feeding Goose Creek, In2Care stations keep working on breeding sites you can't directly reach.
In2Care Advantages for Loudoun Properties
- Controls both adult and larval mosquitoes from a single station
- Self-spreading action reaches nearby stormwater ponds and creek corridors
- Reduces overall spray applications while maintaining results
- 60-90 day effectiveness per station treatment cycle
- Works alongside barrier sprays for full-spectrum coverage

Our 4-Step Mosquito Control Process for Loudoun County
Step 1: Property Inspection. A licensed technician walks your entire property to find breeding sources, resting areas, and entry points. In Loudoun's master-planned communities, this includes checking around HOA common areas, stormwater features, playground borders, and dense landscaping. Properties in Ashburn Village, Broadlands, and Cascades get extra attention around retention pond edges and creek buffers.
Step 2: Targeted Barrier Application. We spray foliage, foundation plantings, areas under eaves and decks, and dense vegetation where mosquitoes hide during daylight hours. Treatment targets where mosquitoes actually rest, avoiding blooming flowers and edible plants.
Step 3: Results Check. Every treatment includes a follow-up evaluation. If mosquito activity persists, we adjust product selection or application areas at no additional cost.
Step 4: Monthly Maintenance. Scheduled visits every 21-30 days from April through October maintain your protective barrier. Each visit includes a detailed report emailed to you with what was treated and any property-specific recommendations.
Seasonal Mosquito Protection Schedule for Loudoun County
April: We launch barrier treatments before the first major mosquito hatch. Early intervention prevents populations from establishing in stormwater ponds and creek corridors across Loudoun. For homeowners bundling tick control, granular treatments start in March along wooded perimeters and ecotone areas.
May through September: Monthly barrier treatments maintain protection during peak season. Loudoun's summer heat topping 88°F paired with humidity above 70% can cause mosquito populations to double in days. Consistent coverage paired with In2Care stations keeps outdoor spaces usable across Ashburn, Sterling, Leesburg, and South Riding.
October: Final barrier treatment targets late-season species. We walk your property and recommend eliminating standing water, cleaning gutters, and dumping containers to reduce next year's populations before winter dormancy.
