Mosquito Misting System Installation & Service
Mosquito Misting Systems for Homes Across Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio & Surrounding Areas
Warm weather should feel like a reason to go outside, not a reminder to retreat indoors. When mosquitoes are relentless, it can change how you use your backyard, pool, patio, or outdoor kitchen. Families start planning around pests instead of enjoyment.
Many homeowners try foggers, sprays, and candles before realizing those options only deliver temporary relief. BUGCO® Pest Control installs and maintains automated mosquito misting systems for homeowners who want dependable, daily protection built into their property. This is a premium option for those who want consistency, convenience, and a long-term answer instead of reactive treatments.
Our motto is We Make the Bugs Go, and the misting system is one of the most effective ways to make that happen!

How Our Mosquito Misting Systems Work
We install a discreet network of narrow tubing and precision nozzles around key outdoor areas such as fences, covered patios, pergolas, play zones, flower beds, and pool decks. The system connects to a central control unit and solution tank, which is typically placed out of view near your A/C or pool equipment. Homeowners do not need to be present during installation.
Once activated, the system releases a carefully measured mist at times when mosquitoes are most active. Most setups run brief nighttime cycles that last only a few seconds. This creates a consistent zone of protection around high-use areas. Additional garden risers can be placed in flower beds to reach the areas mosquitoes often hide from sun and wind.
The system includes:
- A central control unit and solution reservoir
- Tubing and nozzles placed strategically for balanced coverage
- Optional garden risers to reach landscaping zones
- A handheld remote for manual control
The manual feature is especially useful before gatherings or pool time. With a single press, you can run a cycle without bringing out sprays or fogging equipment. These systems are trusted nationwide and used by more than 400 pest control companies, a reflection of their reliability, engineering, and long-term performance.

What Makes Our Mosquito Misting Solution Different
Our misting systems use a water-based solution made with pyrethrum, a biodegradable extract from chrysanthemum flowers known for its fast and powerful effect on mosquitoes.
Pyrethrum works through two ways: it helps deter mosquitoes from entering treated areas and disrupts their nervous system on contact, making each mist cycle highly effective against both flying and resting mosquitoes. Many homeowners also notice fewer crawling pests, such as spiders and small roaches, around the treated areas.
Because pyrethrum breaks down quickly in sunlight, it performs powerfully during the active period while avoiding buildup on outdoor surfaces. It is also not easily absorbed through the skin once dry, which makes it practical for families who often use their outdoor spaces.
We recommend keeping people and pets out of the treated zone until the mist has settled and surfaces are dry, which usually takes about thirty minutes. Once dry, the space can be used normally.
Easy Refills & Scheduled Maintenance Plans Available
The misting system has a large tank designed to operate for several weeks and often up to 90 days depending on settings, property size, and seasonal activity. You will not need to refill it manually. Our technicians visit on a scheduled maintenance plan to refill product, check pressure and timing, clean or replace nozzles, and inspect connections.
During visits, we also watch for environmental risks and advise on simple changes such as standing-water removal or trimming heavy vegetation for better airflow. Our plans include quarterly or monthly service, and we can adjust based on your environment and comfort needs.

How Pricing Works & What Your Investment Includes
A mosquito misting system is a custom upgrade, and pricing can vary. We begin with a brief consultation and provide a free, honest estimate so you can decide with clarity and no pressure.
Pricing is usually shaped by a few key factors:
- Installation. A one-time step that considers yard size, system design, nozzle count, and the overall equipment layout.
- Maintenance Plan. Scheduled visits for product refills, nozzle cleaning, system checks, and performance adjustments throughout the season.
- Optional Add-Ons. Enhancements such as custom misting schedules, seasonal program changes, or additional nozzles if your outdoor space expands.
Financing options are available for homeowners who prefer structured payments, and a satisfaction guarantee is included for added confidence.
Why a Misting System Makes Sense for Long-Term Comfort in Texas
Texas mosquito season can stretch for many months, especially in humid or wooded areas. With that length of activity, temporary treatments eventually lose their impact. Even high-quality barrier sprays have a cycle. They work well for a period, then taper, and mosquitoes return at the worst possible time.
A misting system takes a different approach. It runs small, strategically timed bursts on a consistent schedule, which means it is not fighting an uphill battle every time mosquitoes rebound. It becomes part of your property, similar to a landscape lighting system, sprinkler system, or pool equipment. Once installed, it works quietly in the background with very little homeowner effort.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the system affect my outdoor décor or landscaping design?
Nozzles are small and the tubing is installed along natural lines that already exist in your yard. If you have custom landscaping or specialty materials, we can walk you through placement options so the system blends in visually.
Can the system be installed in yards with pools, fountains, or water features?
Yes. We routinely design layouts for properties with pools, fountains, and outdoor kitchens. During the consultation, we look at water circulation, seating areas, wind patterns, and splash zones to ensure the mist stays directed where it should.
What if I’m sensitive to smells or have respiratory concerns?
The mist is designed to disperse quickly, and the system runs when families are indoors. If you have sensitivities, let us know during the consultation and we can discuss scheduling, product options, and placement choices that fit your needs.
Can the system be expanded later if I add a patio, pergola, or outdoor structure?
Yes. Most systems can be adapted with additional nozzles or extended tubing. If your outdoor space evolves over time, we can update the layout to maintain balanced coverage.
What kind of long-term upkeep should I expect beyond regular service?
Aside from scheduled maintenance, most systems require minimal involvement. Over several years, small parts may need replacement due to natural wear, and we handle that proactively during routine visits.
