Stagnant Water

Stagnant water with a high organic level that stays for longer than seven days is an ideal breeding site for mosquitoes, especially between early June and the end of August. By eliminating or treating stagnant water you can reduce the mosquito population in your neighbourhood and reduce your risk of West Nile Virus (WNV) infection.
