Live For Nothing...Die For Something " & U ARE ON TARGET!!!

   


Under optimal conditions, the egg of an Aedes mosquito can hatch into a larva in less than a day. The larva then takes about four days to develop in a pupa, from which an adult mosquito will emerge after two days. Three days after the mosquito has bitten a person and taken in blood, it will lay eggs, and the cycle begins again.
Fast facts about the mosquito
  • Only the female aedes mosquito bites as it needs the protein in blood to develop its eggs.
  • The mosquito becomes infective approximately 7 days after it has bitten a person carrying the virus. This is the extrinsic incubation period, during which time the virus replicates in the mosquito and reaches the salivary glands.
  • Peak biting is at dawn and dusk.
  • The average lifespan of an Aedes mosquito in Nature is 2 weeks
  • The mosquito can lay eggs about 3 times in its lifetime, and about 100 eggs are produced each time.
  • The eggs can lie dormant in dry conditions for up to about 9 months, after which they can hatch if exposed to favourable conditions, i.e. water and food

All mosquitoes must have water in which to complete their life cycle, however not all mosquitoes prefer the same conditions. Some mosquito larvae develop in polluted or brackish water environments and some prefer freshwater. Similarly, some mosquito species prefer to lay their eggs on small water bodies (eg. puddles, hoof prints or in small containers) whilst others prefer the shallow margins of larger water bodies. The type and number of breeding sites within any given area is a good indication of the types of vectors which may be present (and how abundant they are). 

This diversity of breeding preferences can be well illustrated by considering two important vector genera such as Anopheles (a genus which contains the malaria vectors) and Aedes (containing the major vectors of dengue and yellow fever):
·         Most species of Anopheles prefer clean, unpolluted water and larvae have been found in fresh or salt-water marshes, mangrove swamps, rice fields, grassy ditches, the edges of streams and rivers, and small, temporary rain pools. Many species prefer habitats with vegetation whilst others prefer habitats that have none. Some breed in open, sun-lit pools while others prefer shaded breeding sites in forests, tree holes or the leaf axils of some plants.
·         The major vector species within the genus Aedes (Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus) are recognised as container-breeding species, preferring small volumes of water (artificial or natural) and encompassing environments like rainwater in used tires, discarded tins and plastic containers, abandoned car parts, water-collecting trays under plant-pots and natural situations such as the water collected in dead leaves, tree holes, and rock pools.

Ultrasonic Bird Repellers

 

Ultrasonic Bird Repellers Repel pest birds without bothering humans! Ultrasonic bird repellers are simple to install, extremely low-profile, and highly effective. Repel pest birds discreetly and permanently using silent-to-humans ultrasonic sound waves! Ultrasound technology is safe, humane and eco-friendly while extremely irritating and disorienting to birds. Facility managers must maintain safe, healthy properties. Pest birds create unsafe conditions, and cause untold billions of damage and maintenance costs, liability and risk exposure from accidents, pollution and disease. Use ultrasonic bird control here: An ultrasonic bird control audio solution is perfect for areas where silence is preferred. Enclosed and semi-enclosed areas are ideal. Ultrasound is most effective where sound waves can bounce off walls or ceilings, due to their direct projection and short wavelength. Outdoors, expect best results from an ultrasonic bird repeller in small areas. Inside warehouses & loading docks Parking structures Walkways & awnings Schools & hospitals Entrances & porches Balconies & patios For More Information : Captain Ricky_Amir 013 222 8180 rangerpestcontrolservices@gmail.com

Termytron Baiting System

TERMYTRON ENTICE SYSTEM THE TERMITE ELIMINATOR THE ADVANTAGE TERMYTRON BAITING SYSTEM, an Australian invention, innovated and redesigned in the early 2008 to improve its Effectiveness is one of the best proven baiting systems available worldwide. 

 The TERMYTRON BAITING SYSTEM has been uniquely designed to entice termites into the baiting system. The enclosed baits work as an attractant and lure the termites into the baiting system. The baiting system is Environment-Friendly and safe to humans and pets contact, as they are devoid of any of the harmful chemicals. The baits of the system are treated with a formulated solution (attractant) made up of ten ingredients that are non-poisonous and edible, however gives out a strongly enticing smell that exclusively attracts the termites to infest the baits contained in the TERMYTRON BAITING SYSTEM. 

Our mission is to keep TERMYTRON BAITING SYSTEM Environment-Friendly, Effective, Affordable and Durable. The TermyTron System is made of ABS material which is durable. The baits are made of wood which is covered with corrugated paper and then soaked in a solution (the attractant). The TermyTron Baiting System which is placed in the garden front, high rise buildings and in the plantation fields not only eliminates the termites but eradicates the whole colony. It then stands as a shield to the property and keeps new termites infestations at a distance from the property. The specialty of this system is that the END USERS OWN THE SYSTEM and the ABS tube is given a life long guarantee.

What is Pest?


A pest is "a plant or animal detrimental to humans or human concerns (as agriculture or livestock production)"; alternative meanings include organisms that cause nuisance and epidemic disease associated with high mortality (specifically: plague). In its broadest sense, a pest is a competitor of humanity. 'Pest' is a generic word for other terms such as: insect pests (of agriculture or human disease vectors), vermin, weeds and plant pathogens. In the past, the term might have been used for detrimental animals only, thus for example, causing confusion where the generic term 'pesticide' meant 'insecticide' to some people. Usage of the term Pests often occur in high densities, making the damage they do even more detrimental Often animals are derided as pests as they cause damage to agriculture by feeding on crops or parasitising livestock, such as codling moth on apples, or boll weevil on cotton. An animal could also be a pest when it causes damage to a wild ecosystem or carries germs within human habitats. Examples of these include those organisms which vector human disease, such as rats and fleas which carry the plague disease, mosquitoes which vector malaria, and ticks which carry Lyme disease. The term pest may be used to refer specifically to harmful animals but is also often taken to mean all harmful organisms including weeds, plant pathogenic fungi and viruses. Pesticides are chemicals and other agents (e.g. beneficial micro-organisms) that are used to control or protect other organisms from pests. The related term vermin has much overlap with pest, but generally only includes those creatures that are seen to be vectors of diseases. It is possible for an animal to be a pest in one setting but beneficial or domesticated in another (for example, European rabbits introduced to Australia caused ecological damage beyond the scale they inflicted in their natural habitat). Many weeds (plant pests) are also seen as useful under certain conditions, for instance Patterson's curse is often valued as food for honeybees and as a wildflower, even though it can poison livestock. The term "plant pest" has a very specific definition in terms of the International Plant Protection Convention and phytosanitary measures worldwide. A pest is any species, strain or biotype of plant, animal, or pathogenic agent injurious to plants or plant products. Plants may be consisidered pests if an invasive species. Any prolific animal or plant may be considered pests. The greatest importance as pests (in the order of economic importance) are insects, mites, nematodes and gastropods.
