Mosquitoes on the Terrace and in the Garden in Warsaw — How to Reduce Their Numbers for the Season
Standing water is the main mosquito breeding site — sometimes just a few millilitres are enough. Find out what mosquito control looks like in Warsaw.
Why are mosquitoes a problem on the terrace and in the garden?
Standing water is the main mosquito breeding site — sometimes just a few millilitres are enough for far more of them to appear near your home.
Cause itchy bites
Skin reactions can be especially troublesome for children and sensitive people.
Can spread diseases
In rare cases, they're a vector for viruses dangerous to health.
Multiply extremely fast
Even a small amount of standing water is enough to lay hundreds of eggs.
Most active in the evening
They make it hard to enjoy the terrace and garden on warm evenings.
How to identify mosquito sources in the garden
Check these spots first:
- Standing water in plant pots, gutters and garden containers
- Neglected garden ponds and pools
- Gaps in window and terrace door screens
- Dense, damp vegetation near relaxation areas
- Increased mosquito activity at dusk, especially after rainfall
How we deal with mosquitoes — methods that work
We match the method to the size and character of the property:
Barrier sprays

Identifying breeding sites

Seasonal treatments
Repeated in key months, they increase long-term effectiveness.
Guarantee on the treatment

Did you know...?
How fast do mosquitoes develop?
0–10 days
is enough for an egg laid in standing water to turn into an adult, flying mosquito.
How to prepare the garden before the season?
For the treatment to be fully effective, prepare the property following our tips:
Remove unnecessary water containers
Eliminate potential breeding sites before the season starts.
Check that screens are properly fitted
Repair or install screens on windows and doors.
Keep water moving in garden ponds
Standing water favours larval development, flowing water doesn't.
