CALGARY MOSQUITO REMOVAL

Mosquito species differ in size, colour, body features, habitat and host preference. In Alberta, there are 43 different species of mosquito are found. A mosquito passes through four distinct stages during its life cycle: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. The first three need water in which to develop. In Alberta, most of the pest species of mosquitoes complete two or more generations each year, (multivoltine). Some, however, complete only one genetation (univoltine) each year. Mosquitoes breed in still or standing water, not running water such as streams and rivers. Any site that holds water for over a week may be a suitable habitate for mosquitoes. Female mosquitoes require a blood meal to initiate egg development. After mating, the female begins to seek a blood meal and can travel upto 20 kilometers to locate a suitable host. Mosquitoes find a host by using odour, movement, colour, lactic acid and carbon dioxide. 

Mosquitoes have adapted to a wide variety of habitats in natural and human-made environments. They can be found wherever conditions are warm and moist, where there is nectar for food, a source of blood for egg production, and standing or still water where the offspring can develop
