Say goodbye to mosquito bites in Singapore with ORIGIN's mosquito control solution
Mosquito Control Singapore
Mosquitoes are deadly because they transmit viruses that cause fatal diseases. Even if the viruses are not fatal, the reactions can range from mild irritation to swelling.The common species in Singapore are Aedes, Anopheles, and Culex, which breed rapidly in even the smallest pools of stagnant water in nearby areas.
Effective mosquito control is crucial for a healthier living environment and to reduce the likelihood of disease. Get the help of a professional to eliminate any breeding possibility of mosquitoes in and around your area.
Conventional Mosquito Control in Singapore
Fogging: It involves directing pesticide smoke to kill adult mosquitos and insects.
Larviciding: It targets mosquito larvae using pesticides like BTI dunks and temephos dunks in probable breeding spots.
Source Reduction: It is the most effective method as it eliminates breeding sites by removing stagnant water.
ORIGIN does offer a combination of fogging, larviciding, and source reduction if this is your preference. However we do recommend our 3+1 Mosquito Management Programme instead. Our ultimate aim is to keep mosquitoes out of your premises. Trust ORIGIN for expert mosquito control in Singapore in both Residential and Commercial spaces.
Signs of Infestation
- Seeing Mosquitos: Spotting mosquitoes indoors or outdoors, especially at dawn or dusk, is a potential sign of infestation.
- Hearing Buzz: The irritating whine near the ears is a sure giveaway.
- Finding wrigglers: Finding mosquito larvae in stagnant water means they’re breeding.
- Getting bitten often: Frequent bites, mostly during dawn and dusk, indicate infestation.
- Spotting them resting: Finding mosquitos resting in cool, dark places during the day.
If you notice these signs, act fast and call us.
Prevention Tips
- Fill and repair ground depressions.
- Regularly clear blocked drains and roof gutters.
- Cover unused gully traps and toilet bowls.
- Empty standing water from buckets, watering cans, plant pot plates, etc.
- Change water in flower vases, plant pot plates, and water containers frequently.
- Cover outdoor storage containers to prevent rainwater collection. Ensure covers are tightly secured to avoid water pooling.
- Clear leaves, sand, and debris from drains to prevent water blockages.
3+1 Mosquito Management Programme
We leverage data and technology to deliver high-quality, responsible pest control products and services. Our innovative 3+1 mosquito management program offers a comprehensive solution targeting mosquitoes, larvae, and breeding sites.
One: Inspection
Our thorough inspections pinpoint mosquito breeding sites and high-risk areas requiring targeted treatments.
Two: ORItrap
This durable, recycled trap incorporates:
- An odour attractant to entice egg-laying female mosquitos.
- A biological agent weakens the females, preventing virus development and transmission.
- A growth regulator in the agent halts larvae development, ensuring they perish. Females inadvertently spread this agent to surrounding breeding sites.
Three: Dual Misting
- BTi (Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis), is a bacterium that produces toxins that target mosquito larvae.
- Bifenthrin, a pyrethroid that deters feeding, kills on contact, and offers lasting protection.
+1: Monitoring Software
Our mosquito monitoring software records larval counts every 10 days. Our QA team analyses this data to identify hot spots and potential breeding sites, ensuring proactive management.

life cycle: 7-10 days
eggs to larvae: a few days once submerged in water
larvae to pupae: 7 days
pupae to adult: a few days
BEHAVIOUR
Unlike other mosquitoes that bite during the night, the Aedes mosquitoes are active during the day and peak during early morning and late afternoon.
BREEDING
The Aedes mosquito eggs can lay dormant for months until they are submerged in water.
BREEDING
The female Aedes mosquito requires blood to produce eggs.
FEEDING
The male Aedes mosquito feeds on nectar and other sugar sources.

The Aedes mosquito grows best in warm and humid environments hence the importance of removing standing water in and around us.
ENVIRONMENT
As little as a teaspoon of water is enough for the eggs to hatch into larvae.
INSPECTION
Our Technicians are trained to meticulously look for Aedes Mosquitoes. They also take into consideration structural issues, housekeeping practices as well as surrounding environments.
ORITRAPS
Made from recycled polypropylene, the ORItrap is multi-functional: attracts female mosquitoes to lay eggs, kills larvae, kills female mosquito after she contaminates surrounding mico breeding sites.
DUAL MISTING
This method releases the formula in a fine mist with our dual formula that ensures effective mosquito control by killing both larvae and adult mosquitoes.
DATA COLLECTION
We track the larval count to monitor mosquito activity. Based on data analysis, we adjust the treatment to achieve optimal results with minimal use of chemicals.
PROFESSIONAL ADVICE
Based on our inspection of your premises and the contributing factors that may be involved, our technician will provide advice on mosquito prevention.
