Clouds roll in, sunshine peeks,
October’s been playing hide-and-seek. ☔☀️

A splash here, a puddle there,
Mosquitoes can make a home anywhere. 🦟

So tip it, toss it, clear the way,
Don’t let the buzz move in to stay.

🚨 DENGUE FEVER UPDATE: Tampa Bay is Florida's hotspot

Florida has now confirmed 252 locally acquired dengue cases this year, and 88% of them are in Hillsborough County. Hillsborough and Pinellas have both declared local states of emergency.

Dengue is spread by the Aedes aegypti mosquito, which breeds in small amounts of standing water right around our homes. That means your backyard matters.

Here's what you can do today:
✅ Tip and toss standing water weekly (planters, toys, birdbaths, gutters, tarps)
✅ Wear EPA-registered repellent outdoors, especially at dawn and dusk
✅ Repair torn window and door screens
✅ See a doctor if you develop fever, headache, joint pain or rash

🛡️ Want an extra layer of protection for your loved ones? Mosquito Shield of Tampa's barrier treatments target mosquitoes where they rest and breed around your yard, so your family can enjoy the outdoors with more peace of mind.

The county is responding to dengue. Protection still starts at home.

The latest state reporting shows 170 locally acquired dengue cases have been reported in Hillsborough County this year.

That is why county mosquito-control efforts have increased, including treatment by air and ground. But even with a larger public response underway, protection still has to reach the places closest to home.

For Tampa families, this is the moment to take mosquito pressure seriously — especially around the outdoor spaces where your family lives, relaxes, and gathers.

If mosquitoes around your home are not letting up, do not wait for the issue to feel bigger.

Hosting a backyard gathering in Tampa Bay usually comes down to a short list of essentials everyone remembers.

🍔 Food and drinks
🎶 Music for the evening
🪑 Enough seating for guests
🌤️ Good timing with the weather (and the afternoon storms)
🦟 A plan for keeping mosquitoes out of the equation

That last one is easy to overlook until the gathering is already underway. In Florida, mosquito season doesn't end when summer does. Fall cookouts, game day watch parties, and holiday get-togethers all deserve a bite-free backyard.

This is not the week to “wait and see.”

Florida’s latest arbovirus surveillance report shows 95 locally acquired dengue cases in Hillsborough County this year, along with dengue-positive mosquito pools reported in the county.

For Tampa families, mosquito control is about more than an annoying backyard bite. It is about being proactive in the places where your family lives, plays, and spends time outdoors.

At Mosquito Shield, your family is our priority. We focus on reducing mosquito pressure around the areas they are most likely to settle, including shaded landscaping, damp areas, patios, and other parts of the yard you use every day.

Don’t wait for mosquito activity to become a bigger problem. Take action this week.
