Description
So I have complained three times. I was on my back porch the other evening and was bitten 30 times. The inspector came out and said he caught 1 mosquito and there are gnats that are biting. I can take my dog out for a minute and get bitten by 10 mosquitos. I sat on my back porch the other evening and got 30 bites very quickly. Please send someone else over or get better traps as they are not working. I see them fly up to me and bite me and they are not gnats. They are mosquitos. West nile and zika are here in Florida and we need relief.

I entered a service request about the mosquito problem in your area; our technician should be there within one working day depending on their work load. They will inspect the property and surrounding neighborhood to determine the source of the problem and will take the necessary action to correct the problem; whenever possible we try to target Mosquitoes in the aquatic juvenile stage to control them at the source.
If we cannot get into the property due to locked gates then please check for anything that may be holding rainwater as Mosquitoes will breed in them by the hundreds, we’ll be checking the area surrounding the property for anything that may be contributing to the problem and will take the necessary steps to eliminate or treat the source.
If you are at the property when the technician arrives then please take the opportunity to inform them of your concerns. If you are not at the property when they arrive a card will be left providing you with detailed information on our handling of your request and what we will do to monitor the area for any further problems that may develop.
If there are any other questions or concerns you may have please call me at 727- 464-7503.
Thank you,
Pinellas County Mosquito Control
