Common NJ Mosquitoes That We Target

Aedes Canadensis

An aggressive, day biting mosquito that can be a vector of West Nile virus, eastern equine encephalitis virus and dog heartworm. It is found east of the Mississippi River. The larvae develop in temporary or semipermanent shaded woodland pools containing fallen leaves, and to a lesser extent in pools in small stream beds and pools and ditches adjacent to wooded areas.

The species overwinters in the egg stage, and the larvae hatch in large numbers in the late winter and spring the females are persistent biters, attacking readily in shaded situations throughout most of the day. The Oakmont NJ Mosquito Control is designed to attack mosquitoes before they hatch and keep killing mosquitoes all summer long – our Oakmont Repellagation system keeps neighboring mosquitoes from drifting onto your property and infecting you – for the ultimate mosquito protection ask about ZIKA 911. Oakmont Env is the exclusive NJ licensee for ZIKA 911.

Aedes Vexans

A cosmopolitan and common pest mosquito. It is a known vector of Dirofilaria immitis (dog heartworm); Myxomatosis (deadly rabbit virus disease); and tahyna-virus, a seldom-diagnosed Bunyaviridae, a disease which affects humans with fever which disappears after two days, but afterward can cause Encephalitis or Meningitis.

Its abundance depends upon availability of floodwater pools. In summer, mosquito traps can collect up to 8,000 mosquitoes per trap per night.

Aedes Sollicitans

The eastern saltmarsh mosquito (also known as Ochlerotatus sollicitans), is a species of mosquito native to the eastern seaboard of the United States and Canada as well as the entire Gulf coast and is also present in the Bahamas and Greater Antilles.

While primarily found in coastal areas within a few miles of the coast, it is occasionally found inland in areas with saline pools, the species was reported as far west as Arizona. The species is a prime vector for Eastern equine encephalitis, Venezuelan equine encephalitis and dog heartworm.

Aedes sollicitans tends to stay within 5 miles of the coast on average all the range can be greater dependent upon a number of factors such as wind speed and duration. It tends to feed most actively at twilight but is an opportunistic feeder which will feed a host species that enters its area in daytime.

The female requires one blood meal for each egg batch with the primary host species being mammals, and birds as a secondary host.

Anopheles Quadrimaculatus Say

This mosquito was the most important vector of malaria in the southeastern United States and today is a major host of the nematode that causes dog heartworm.

Large populations are found in rice fields, reservoirs, lakes and rivers which makes this mosquito a significant pest of man and livestock.

Anopheles quadrimaculatus has a distribution that covers much of the eastern United States. Its range extends from southern Canada to the Florida Everglades, and to the west from Minnesota to Mexico.

Coquillettidia Perturbans

A species of mosquito that have been documented in Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, North America, and South America. This mosquito is a known as a vector of West Nile virus and Eastern equine encephalomyelitis. The geographic range of Cq. perturbans is increasing due to the growing extensity of the feeding area and disease transmission of this species. They are known to exist throughout the United States, mainly with a southern distribution, and are mammalophilic.

Coquillettidia sp. are vectors for many diseases, including West Nile virus, and Eastern equine encephalomyelitis, among others. Cq. perturbans infected with Eastern equine encephalomyelitis (or EEE) have been discovered in the United States, eastern Canada, the Caribbean, and Latin America. This mosquito is implicated in transmitting EEE to humans, horses, resident birds, and sometimes emus, and also transmitting the John Cunningham virus while feeding on deer.

Though Cq. perturbans are not usually the primary vector of EEE, it still influences the spread of this disease due to its ability to fly long distances and feed on large animals, including humans. The climate where this disease transmission takes place most often can be defined as swamp and/or hardwood forest habitat.

Culista Melanura

Most Culiseta species are cold-adapted, which only occur in warmer climates during the colder parts of the year or at higher elevations where temperatures are low. The larvae of most species are found in ground waters such as bogs, marshes, ponds, streams, ditches, and rock pools, but a common eastern Palaearctic species occurs in water wells and rock pools.

Little is known about the blood-feeding habits of females. Most species feed on birds and mammals. Several species attack domestic animals and occasionally humans.

Culex Pipiens

(The common house mosquito or northern house mosquito) is a species of blood-feeding mosquito of the family Culicidae. It is a vector of some diseases, such as Japanese encephalitis, meningitis, and urticaria. In the US and parts of Europe, it can spread West Nile virus.

Both males and females feed on various sugar sources, such as nectar, honeydew and juices from fruits. Only females feed on blood, and will do so preferentially, over sugar, when they have mated.

Blood provides proteins essential to the development of their eggs. Their primary blood meal hosts are considered to be birds, but they will feed on humans and other mammals.
