In2Care mosquito stations in the San Fernando Valley
The In2Care station is a passive trap with no power source, it lures egg laying female mosquitoes inside, where they pick up a larvicide and carry it back out to breeding sites around your property that a spray truck would never reach. It targets Aedes and Culex mosquitoes and will not harm bees or butterflies. One station covers up to about 4,000 square feet, so the number of stations depends on the size of your yard.

- 101
Assess and place
We walk the property to find where mosquitoes rest and where females are likely laying eggs, then position stations where they will intercept the most activity.
- 202
Install
Stations are set in place with no power source needed, ready to start attracting and infecting female mosquitoes as soon as they are positioned.
- 303
Refill and inspect
We return roughly every four weeks to refill sachets, check station condition, and adjust placement if breeding pressure has shifted anywhere on the property.
What we use, and where
The station itself uses no chemicals or pesticides, the active ingredients are biological agents that are toxic only to mosquitoes and have been reviewed for safety around people, pets and wildlife including birds and fish. Because it is a closed unit rather than a spray, there is nothing broadcast across your lawn, so it is safe for beneficial insects like bees and butterflies too.
Mosquitoes by month
Peak months for mosquitoes in the Valley, from our own route records.
One or two stations cover most residential yards, larger or heavily shaded properties may need more. We will tell you the right count during inspection instead of guessing on the phone.

What mosquito stations customers say
I have been using Facility Pest Control for many years. They have been the best decision for me and my family to keep pests and mosquitoes away from our home. Always on time, always friendly, and the treatments work.
Honorable, honest, efficient and provide fair pricing. Someone is always available to help and the techs (Juan cares for our home) are also wonderfully adept. Sam, who I believe is the owner, is always incredibly kind, considerate, patient and informed. We have NOT been bitten ONCE at our home since Facility began in the spring, and we have neighbors on either side of us with green, mossy pools. We are even able to enjoy sitting outside in the mornings and evenings now. So grateful we stumbled across this company. Highly recommend!
They helped us with a protracted roach problem. The owner took the time to talk through the issue with us for a long time. He was the only company that said we didn't need to get on a multi year contract. They ended up coming three times and I haven't seen new roaches for months. Thank you for your excellent customer service and thoroughness.
Mosquito stations questions, answered
What is the In2Care mosquito station?
It is a passive station that lures egg laying female mosquitoes inside, exposes them to a biological larvicide, and lets them fly back out and unknowingly spread it to breeding sites nearby. It targets both the adult and larval stages without broadcast spraying your yard.
How does the station actually work?
A female mosquito is drawn in by scent, lands inside, and picks up two biological agents, one that stops larvae from developing and one that shortens her life and ability to spread disease. She then carries the larvicide out to other breeding sites on her own.
Is the In2Care station safe for my family and pets?
Yes. It uses no chemicals or pesticides, only biological agents that are toxic to mosquitoes and have been reviewed as safe around people, pets and wildlife. There is nothing sprayed into the air or across your lawn.
Does it need power or batteries?
No. The station is entirely passive, no power source, no batteries, nothing to plug in. That is part of why it can sit quietly in a shaded corner of the yard and keep working.
How often does the station need maintenance?
We check and refill stations roughly every four weeks to keep them effective. Our technician will also confirm placement is still right for where mosquitoes are active, since breeding pressure can shift through the season.
Will this harm bees or butterflies in my yard?
No. The active ingredients only affect mosquitoes, and because the station is a closed unit rather than a spray, bees, butterflies and other pollinators moving through your yard are not exposed to anything.
How much area does one In2Care station cover?
About 4,000 square feet. Most yards need one or two, and a larger or heavily shaded property needs more. On a big yard, fogging under the leaves can do as much work as the stations or more, so we usually recommend both.
Where can I read more about In2Care?
In2Care publishes the research and the details on how the station works at in2care.com. Ask your technician to walk you through the station in person too, it takes about a minute to see how it works.

In2Care® Mosquito Station
The In2Care program, provided by Facility Pest Control, employs cutting-edge technology to decrease mosquito populations and shield your family from potentially dangerous bites without endangering beneficial insects like bees and butterflies.
In countries plagued by Aedes and Culex mosquitoes, insecticide resistance has become a significant issue needing an environmentally friendly solution. Area-wide insecticide fogging is still used but shows limited efficacy—and impacts on non-target organisms. This requires a shift to more environmentally friendly vector control.
The uniquely designed traps from In2Care reduce the population of aggressive Aedes aegypti mosquitoes by preventing larvae from hatching and maturing into adults – thus interrupting the cycle at an early stage – and by killing female mosquitoes. This method provides effective, dependable, and inexpensive mosquito control.

About The In2Care® Mosquito Station
The In2Care® Mosquito Station is constructed from long-lasting recycled polypropylene (PP) components, including its lid, center tube, click-on interface, and reservoir. It employs specially designed traps that are strategically positioned throughout your yard. These traps contain a slow-killing larvicide that has been genetically modified to transport the pest-killing bacteria Wolbachia. When female mosquitoes come into touch with this bacteria, they cannot reproduce, reducing their population.
Easy to Use
Designed for long-lasting durability. Designed for long-term endurance. Hassle-free to assemble and retain. No external power supply is required.
Truly Novel
A versatile tool for reducing mosquito populations that spreads larvicides through mosquitoes.
Highly Effective
Scientific studies prove that mosquito larvae and adult Aedes species are easily killed using this approach.
Dengue, Chikungunya, Yellow Fever, and the Zika virus quickly spread throughout the world’s tropical regions. The Aedes mosquito, a vector for these diseases, is notoriously difficult to control because it lays eggs across numerous inaccessible breeding locations. The In2Care Mosquito Station uses highly advanced, environmentally friendly ingredients to successfully lure and kill Aedes mosquitoes in all life stages, from eggs to adults. Station activity goes beyond the Station and into the surrounding area.
How Does The In2Care® Mosquito Station Work?
Expertly setting up and positioning the In2Care mosquito traps on your property is a specialty of Facility Pest Control’s mosquito control pros. Here is how the device works to keep mosquitoes away once it has been set up:
In2Care® Mosquito Stations can be positioned outdoors at a recommended density of 1/400 m2 (10 Stations per acre) and maintained using refill sachets every four weeks. The product is well-suited for deployment in vector control initiatives, especially in high-traffic zones.
Mosquitoes settle and rest on a floater that moves along the central tube with the water level. Female mosquitoes are drawn to the Station by dissolving a capsule containing enticing odors in the water. When a female enters the Station, she falls on a floater covered with a gauze strip that binds a mixture of biological agents with different modes of action. The US EPA has approved all the biological agents currently used for pest control.
Aedes mosquitoes will be attracted to the patented In2Care® Mosquito Station and deposit their eggs there. Once she reaches the Station, an intruding mosquito will settle on the floater gauze that secures two actives near the water. The first is a growth regulator applied to breeding locations around the Station and controlling mosquito larvae. The second component is a biological fungus that incapacitates the mosquito, stops the development of viruses, and ultimately kills it before it can spread illness.
In2Care® Ingress Biological Non-Toxic Mosquito Control
The Attraction & Infection Phase (The Ingress)
Unlike traditional traps that simply "catch" insects, the In2Care® station acts as a high-tech decoy. Using a proprietary scent profile, it lures egg-laying female mosquitoes into a specialized bioactive chamber. Upon entry, the mosquito is contaminated with a dual-action biological payload: a slow-killing larvicide and a potent fungus that targets the adult’s nervous system.
The Autodissemination Cycle (The "Trojan Horse" Effect)
This is where the system becomes especially effective. The infected mosquito does not die immediately. Instead, she becomes a carrier, transporting the larvicide to multiple "cryptic" breeding sites, such as gutters, flower pots, and shaded drains, that manual sprays often miss. This autodissemination technology ensures that we are neutralizing the next generation of mosquitoes before they even hatch.
The Population Collapse (24-72 Hours)
While the mosquito is busy contaminating other breeding sites, the biological fungus begins to inhibit its ability to bite and transmit viruses (such as Zika or West Nile). Within days, the adult mosquito is neutralized. This creates a sustainable population collapse within the property perimeter, significantly reducing the local mosquito count without the need for constant chemical reapplication.
Eco-Precision & Pollinator Safety
Because the In2Care® station is a self-contained unit, the active ingredients are never broadcast-sprayed across the lawn. This makes it an ultra-targeted, eco-conscious choice that is completely safe for beneficial pollinators like bees and butterflies, as well as pets and families. It provides during office hours protection that works silently in the background of your outdoor living space.
Why Should You Install an In2Care Mosquito Trap?
Compared to conventional mosquito management methods, the In2Care Mosquito Station stands out as a superior option. The adult female mosquito population can be reduced by 98% with the help of In2Care, making it a viable option for Aedes aegypti mosquito management. Because it controls adult mosquitoes and their larval stages, this is an effective treatment against mosquito infestations.
The active ingredients in In2Care mosquito traps have been certified safe for use around people, pets, and wildlife, including birds and fish, by the World Health Organization and the US EPA.
Furthermore, the bioactive ingredients in In2Care traps are toxic only to mosquitoes, so exposure to the traps will not damage beneficial insects like bees and butterflies. Last but not least, In2Care is highly adaptable and can fulfill any mosquito control requirements thanks to its ability to be used both indoors and outdoors.
