Mosquitos

Called makika in Hawaiian, mosquitos are one of the most common nuisance pests on the islands. Mosquitos are actually pollinators, and only female mosquitos actually feed on blood when they need the protein to produce ova. Female mosquitos lay their ova, or eggs, in standing water, including gutters, planters, puddles, buckets, pet dishes, bird baths, and even bottle caps. Once they begin breeding, populations grow fast and can quickly take over a yard, patio, or outdoor space.

Mosquitos are strongly attracted to pregnant women and people with high blood sugar, and they often bite more aggressively around dusk and dawn. Their bites can be painful and irritating, and mosquitos are capable of spreading diseases such as dengue, Zika, and West Nile virus. DIY repellents and citronella candles only provide temporary relief, and they don't address the breeding areas where mosquitos multiply.
