How Do I Get Rid of Mosquitoes in Australia?
Mosquitoes are one of the most annoying pests in Australian households. Aside from causing itchy bites, some species carry viruses such as Ross River virus (RRV), Barmah Forest virus (BFV), Murray Valley encephalitis (MVE) and West Nile virus (Kunjin strain). Queensland Health warns that mosquito numbers increase after storms and floods because standing water creates ideal breeding sites. In such times, outbreaks of mosquito‑borne disease can occur. Understanding local species, their life cycle and how to control them can help householders break the breeding cycle and protect their families.
The Australian Mosquito Landscape
Diversity and key species
More than 3,500 mosquito species exist worldwide, over 300 are recorded in Australia and nearly 100 in Western Australia (WA) alone. However, only around 30 species are considered major pests or carriers of disease. Knowing which species are common around your home helps you choose effective control strategies. Common mosquito species found in Australian suburbs include:
Mosquito activity varies seasonally and regionally. In northern and central Queensland, RRV transmission occurs year‑round but peaks in the warmer months between February and May. In southern states, mosquito populations generally increase in spring and summer after rains or tides. Knowing the species and their seasonal patterns helps time your control measures.
Mosquito life cycle
All mosquitoes have a four‑stage life cycle: egg, larva, pupa and adult. Understanding this cycle is crucial because interventions target different stages.
- Egg – Adult females lay eggs on the inner walls of containers, vegetation or soil near water. Eggs of Aedes species can survive dry conditions for up to eight months.
- Larva (wriggler) – Eggs hatch when water covers them; larvae live in water, breathe air through siphons and feed on microorganisms. They are called wrigglers because of their movement.
- Pupa (tumbler) – After moulting several times, larvae become pupae. Pupae also live in water but do not feed; they are active and tumble when disturbed.
- Adult – Adults emerge from the pupal case on the water surface. Females require blood meals for egg production, while males feed on nectar. A mosquito can complete its life cycle from egg to adult in 7–10 days.
The chart below shows the approximate duration of each stage, emphasising how quickly mosquitoes can multiply if breeding sites aren’t removed.
Figure 1: Approximate duration of mosquito life stages. Data compiled from entomological sources. Actual durations depend on temperature and species.
Because eggs can survive drying and only need a small amount of water to hatch, householders must regularly inspect and remove any standing water before larval stages develop. Breaking this cycle is the key to long‑term control.
Health risks associated with mosquitoes
Mosquitoes are more than a nuisance; some species carry viruses that cause debilitating illnesses in humans. Two of the most common mosquito‑borne viruses in Australia are Ross River virus (RRV) and Barmah Forest virus (BFV). A smaller number of cases involve Murray Valley encephalitis (MVE) and West Nile virus (Kunjin strain).
Ross River virus
The Ross River virus is spread when infected mosquitoes bite humans. It is the most common mosquito‑borne disease in Australia, with thousands of cases reported each year. Queensland Health notes that cases occur year‑round but peak from February to May. The virus is not transmitted from person to person; it is maintained in nature by animals such as wallabies and kangaroos and the mosquitoes that feed on them.
Symptoms include fever, headache, joint pain and swelling, rash, fatigue and nausea. In severe cases, joint pain can persist for months. There is no specific treatment; management focuses on relieving symptoms. To reduce risk, avoid being outside during periods of heavy mosquito activity, use repellents, wear protective clothing and screen living areas.
Barmah Forest virus
Barmah Forest virus causes similar symptoms to RRV and is transmitted by many of the same mosquito species, including Aedes vigilax and Culex annulirostris. Outbreaks occur mostly in coastal and riverine regions during warm, wet summers.
Murray Valley encephalitis and West Nile (Kunjin)
Murray Valley encephalitis (MVE) is a rare but potentially fatal disease caused by a flavivirus. It is endemic in northern Australia but occasionally causes outbreaks in the Murray–Darling basin. Culex annulirostris is the principal vector. Symptoms include fever, drowsiness, confusion and neurological signs; severe cases can lead to coma and permanent brain damage.
West Nile virus (Kunjin strain) is another mosquito‑borne flavivirus present in Australia. Most infections are asymptomatic, but it can cause fever and, rarely, encephalitis. Again, Culex annulirostris is the main vector.
By controlling mosquitoes around the home, you not only reduce annoying bites but also lower the risk of viral diseases.
How to reduce breeding sites around your home
Since mosquitoes need water to breed, the most effective control strategy is source reduction—eliminating standing water where eggs, larvae and pupae develop. Queensland Health and local councils stress that householders are responsible for preventing mosquito breeding and can even be fined under public health legislation if they allow mosquitoes to breed on their property. By following the actions below, you can drastically reduce local mosquito numbers.
Weekly inspection routine
Inspect your property at least once a week during warmer months. Tip out or wipe out any containers that hold water, such as buckets, toys or bird baths. Store items like wheelbarrows, wheelie bins, boats and tarpaulins under cover so they can’t collect rainwater. Dispose of rubbish like old tyres or drink cans; they are perfect breeding sites. Use the table below to identify common breeding sites and recommended actions.
Beyond your own yard, encourage neighbours to remove breeding sites. Mosquitoes travel and will re‑infest your property if the wider community doesn’t join in.
After storms or floods
Storms and floods create abundant breeding opportunities. Queensland Health advises cleaning up promptly after such events: drain ditches, fill holes and remove debris to prevent water pooling. Only a small amount of water is needed for eggs to hatch. Even hollow logs or tree holes can hold enough water for larvae; fill them with sand or mortar.
Rainwater tanks and gutters
Rainwater tanks, downpipes and gutters are essential for water storage but can become major mosquito nurseries if they are not maintained. In Queensland, the Public Health Act requires tank openings to be fitted with screens, and flap valves must be in place on inlet and overflow pipes. Regularly inspect screens for holes, ensure lids are sealed and keep gutters clear of leaves.
Personal protection: avoid being bitten
You can never eliminate all mosquitoes, especially in areas close to wetlands. Therefore, personal protection is still important. Government health agencies recommend the following measures to reduce bites.
1. Avoid peak biting times
Many mosquitoes are most active at dusk and dawn. Try to stay indoors during these periods or take extra precautions if you must be outside. However, some species such as Aedes vigilax are aggressive daytime biters, especially when cloud cover or shade makes conditions humid.
2. Use approved repellents
The Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority (APVMA) assesses and registers insect repellents for safety and effectiveness. The APVMA recommends repellents containing DEET (N,N‑diethyl‑meta‑toluamide), picaridin or oil of lemon eucalyptus. Repellents with less than 10 % DEET or picaridin are considered safe for children; avoid applying repellents to infants under three months old—instead protect them using nets. Always follow label instructions and reapply every few hours.
3. Wear protective clothing
Wear long, loose and light‑coloured clothing such as long‑sleeved shirts, long pants and socks. Dark colours attract mosquitoes because they retain heat. Clothing should be loose because mosquitoes can bite through tight fabrics. Use hats with fine mesh nets when the insects are particularly bad.
4. Use physical barriers
Ensure fly screens on windows and doors are intact and fit closely to keep mosquitoes out. For camping or sleeping outdoors, use mosquito nets. In high‑risk areas, nets should be treated with long‑lasting insecticide for added protection.
5. Use insecticides judiciously
Indoor flying‑insect sprays and surface insecticides can kill mosquitoes. Use pyrethroid aerosols indoors to knock down adult mosquitoes quickly. Outdoor mosquito coils can provide localised protection when sitting outside. However, insecticides are only a temporary fix. They should supplement—not replace—source reduction and physical barriers.
Mosquito control methods
Beyond removing breeding sites and personal protection, a range of control methods can help reduce mosquitoes around your home. The choice depends on the severity of the problem, species present and environmental considerations.
1. Physical trapping devices
Modern mosquito traps lure and capture mosquitoes using light, heat, carbon dioxide (CO₂), odour or a combination of attractants. They provide continuous control without chemicals and can be an excellent addition to an integrated management program.
Outdoor traps
Outdoor traps are designed to reduce breeding populations by capturing female mosquitoes before they lay eggs. They typically combine ultraviolet light with warm surfaces and sometimes titanium dioxide coating to produce small amounts of CO₂. A whisper‑quiet fan sucks insects into a dry chamber where they dehydrate and die. For example, Pestrol’s Mozzie Master is a portable trap that covers about a quarter to half an acre. Key features include durability, low power consumption, UV light, and titanium dioxide coating. The trap should be placed between breeding areas and areas of human activity, 6–9 m away from people, in a shaded, wind‑protected spot about 1–2 m above ground. Owners are advised to run the trap continuously during mosquito season, empty the catchment every week or two and clean the unit regularly. Good placement is vital: upwind of suspected breeding areas and away from competing light sources.
Indoor traps
Indoor traps use similar principles but are optimised for indoor spaces. For example, the Sleep Easy Indoor Mosquito Trap uses safe 365 nm UV‑A light to lure insects, then a fan sucks them into a retaining tray. It doubles as a nightlight with adjustable brightness and includes a timer. There are no chemicals, making it safe for families. Such devices are best for bedrooms, living rooms or caravans where one cannot use insecticide sprays regularly. Place them away from other light sources for maximum effect.
In selecting traps, consider coverage area, power consumption, portability and whether they produce CO₂ or use synthetic attractants. Most devices require consistent operation for several weeks before noticeable reductions occur. They are most effective when combined with source reduction and personal protection.
2. Biological control
Biological control uses natural predators or pathogens to target larvae. This approach suits ornamental ponds or water features where you cannot eliminate water.
- Mosquito fish (Gambusia holbrooki) – These small fish eat larvae and can be introduced to ponds, dams or ornamental water gardens. They reproduce quickly and tolerate a range of conditions. However, they are invasive and may prey on native species, so check with local authorities before releasing them.
- Native fish species – In some regions, releasing native fish such as purple spotted gudgeon (Mogurnda adspersa) into ponds is encouraged because they feed on mosquito larvae without harming local ecosystems. Consult your local council or the Queensland Department of Agriculture and Fisheries for guidelines.
- Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis (Bti) – This bacterium produces toxins that kill mosquito and blackfly larvae. Available as granules or briquettes, it can be placed in water features. Bti is highly specific to mosquito larvae and considered safe for humans, pets and wildlife. It is a useful option for rainwater tanks, ponds or pot plant saucers that cannot be drained.
3. Larvicides and residual insecticides
Larvicides such as methoprene or s‑methoprene prevent larvae from developing into adults. They are available as pellets, briquettes or sand granules that slowly release the active ingredient. Apply larvicides to rainwater tanks, ponds, storm water pits or other water bodies that cannot be drained. Always follow label instructions and local regulations.
Residual insecticides can be applied to outdoor surfaces where adult mosquitoes rest, such as under house eaves, fences and vegetation. Synthetic pyrethroids like permethrin are commonly used. They provide several weeks of protection by killing mosquitoes that contact the treated surface. Consider engaging a licensed pest management technician if large‑scale spraying is required.
4. Natural repellents and plants
Some householders prefer natural repellents or plants. Citronella oil, neem oil, lavender and peppermint oil are sometimes used as topical repellents or diffused to repel mosquitoes. However, the APVMA warns against using unregistered repellents, as they may not work or may cause allergic reactions. Always choose products registered with the APVMA.
Plants such as citronella grass, lemongrass, catnip, rosemary and marigolds produce essential oils that repel insects. While planting these around patios may deter mosquitoes slightly, research shows they provide only limited protection. They are best used alongside other measures.
5. Outdoor environment management
- Vegetation management – Dense vegetation provides resting spots for adult mosquitoes. Trim hedges, mow grass and remove excess ground cover to reduce shade and humidity.
- Water features – Ensure ornamental ponds have good circulation. Install fountains, pumps or waterfalls; moving water disrupts mosquito breeding.
- Lighting – Mosquitoes are attracted to some lights. Replace white incandescent bulbs with yellow or sodium vapor lights to reduce attraction.
- Fencing and screening – Use insect screens on verandas and patios to create mosquito‑free outdoor zones. For outdoor entertaining areas, consider adding fans; the breeze makes it difficult for mosquitoes to fly.
Comparison of mosquito control approaches
The table below compares different mosquito control methods in terms of advantages, limitations and ideal use cases.
Community involvement and council programs
Individual efforts are important but community cooperation is vital. Local councils often undertake surveillance and control programs, especially in high‑risk areas. For example, Leeton Shire Council in New South Wales monitors mosquito populations and arbovirus activity with assistance from NSW Health. They also provide advice on covering up, applying repellents and removing standing water around homes. Many councils issue newsletters or run awareness campaigns in mosquito season.
If your property is close to wetlands or salt marsh, your local council may use aerial or ground‑based larviciding to reduce populations of Aedes vigilax and Aedes camptorhynchus. Residents should support these activities by allowing access to property for monitoring, removing artificial containers and reporting problem areas.
Community groups and neighbours can organise clean‑up days to remove rubbish and large containers that hold water. Educate friends and family about the importance of tipping out water and using repellents.
Summary and action plan
Mosquito control requires an integrated approach combining source reduction, personal protection, traps and, when necessary, biological or chemical control. Here is a step‑by‑step action plan for home owners in Australia:
- Inspect your property weekly during warm months. Tip out water from containers, plant saucers and tarps. Clean gutters and check rainwater tank screens. Dispose of rubbish that can hold water.
- Eliminate larger breeding sites by filling ground depressions, draining ditches and repairing leaking taps. Use sand to fill plant bases. Reduce bromeliads or plants that trap water.
- Install or repair screens and nets. Ensure doors, windows and vents are properly sealed. Use nets over beds and cots, especially for infants.
- Use APVMA‑registered repellents when outdoors. Apply products containing DEET, picaridin or oil of lemon eucalyptus. Remember to reapply every few hours and avoid use on infants under three months.
- Wear appropriate clothing – long sleeves, long pants and socks in light colours.
- Consider investing in traps. Outdoor devices like the Mozzie Master reduce breeding females over time; indoor traps such as the Sleep Easy trap protect bedrooms. Place traps correctly and operate them continuously during mosquito season.
- Use biological control for ponds – introduce mosquito‑eating fish or use Bti briquettes, but consult local guidelines.
- Support council programs and encourage community action. Participate in local clean‑ups and follow advice during disease outbreaks.
- Stay informed about disease outbreaks. Follow state health department alerts and take extra precautions during high‑risk periods.
By following this plan and understanding the biology and behaviour of mosquitoes in Australia, householders can significantly reduce mosquito numbers and protect their families. While total eradication may not be possible, consistent effort breaks the breeding cycle and keeps disease risks low. Remember that success relies on regular maintenance, cooperation with neighbours and the integration of multiple strategies.
Frequently Asked Questions About Mosquito Bites in Australia
1. Why do mosquitoes bite?
Only female mosquitoes bite because they need blood to develop their eggs. They use the proteins in our blood to help their offspring grow. Males feed only on nectar.
2. Why do some people get bitten more than others?
Mosquitoes are attracted to carbon dioxide, body heat, sweat, and skin chemicals. Some people naturally produce more of these signals, making them more appealing to mosquitoes. Dark clothing and perfumes can also increase bites.
3. What do mosquito bites look and feel like?
Bites usually appear as small, raised, itchy lumps. They can become red, swollen, or blistered if scratched. Itchiness comes from your immune system reacting to mosquito saliva injected during feeding.
4. How can I relieve the itch from a mosquito bite?
- Apply a cold pack or damp cloth to reduce swelling.
- Use an anti-itch cream, calamine lotion, or antihistamine gel.
- Avoid scratching, as this can make the bite worse or lead to infection.
5. Can mosquito bites cause allergic reactions?
Yes. While most people only get mild itching, some may develop large, swollen areas known as “Skeeter syndrome.” Severe allergic reactions are rare, but if you experience difficulty breathing, dizziness, or swelling of the face/throat, seek medical help immediately.
6. What diseases can mosquitoes spread in Australia?
Some species carry viruses such as Ross River virus, Barmah Forest virus, Murray Valley encephalitis, and, in rare cases, Japanese encephalitis. These can cause flu-like illness, joint pain, rashes, or more serious symptoms.
7. Are mosquito bites dangerous for children and babies?
Children are more likely to react strongly to bites, often with larger red welts. Babies and toddlers should be protected with mosquito nets, protective clothing, and safe repellents approved for their age group.
8. How can I prevent being bitten at home?
- Use insect screens on doors and windows.
- Remove standing water in the yard weekly.
- Wear long sleeves and light-coloured clothing outdoors.
- Apply mosquito repellent on exposed skin, especially at dusk and dawn.
9. Should I see a doctor about a mosquito bite?
See your GP if you develop flu-like symptoms, ongoing joint pain, rash, or fever within a couple of weeks of being bitten. This is especially important if there are local health alerts about mosquito-borne disease.
10. Do natural remedies or plants keep mosquitoes away?
Some essential oils (citronella, lemon eucalyptus, tea tree) can provide short-term relief, but they wear off quickly and aren’t as effective as registered repellents. Plants like lemongrass or lavender may have mild effects but won’t provide full protection
11. Do mosquitoes prefer biting at certain times of day?
Yes. Many species bite most at dusk and dawn, but some, including those that spread diseases, are also active during the day.
12. Can scratching mosquito bites make them worse?
Scratching can break the skin and introduce bacteria, which may lead to infection. It can also make the itch more intense and last longer.
13. How can I tell if a mosquito bite is infected?
Signs include increased redness, swelling, pus, pain, or warmth around the bite. If you notice these, see your GP for advice.
14. Do mosquitoes bite through clothing?
Yes, if the fabric is thin or tight-fitting. Loose, long sleeves and pants made of thicker material offer better protection.
15. Why do mosquito bites swell more on some people?
Everyone’s immune system responds differently. Some people produce stronger histamine reactions, which leads to bigger or itchier welts.
16. Can mosquito bites spread illnesses between pets and humans?
Mosquitoes can carry diseases that affect both humans and animals. For example, dogs can get heartworm from mosquito bites, while people can catch viruses like Ross River virus. But the diseases are species-specific — a mosquito won’t directly transfer a virus from your dog to you.
17. Are mosquito coils and candles safe to use?
Yes, if used outdoors in well-ventilated spaces. Keep them away from children and pets. They can reduce bites nearby, but they don’t protect large areas.
18. Can mosquito bites leave scars?
Usually not, but repeated scratching or secondary infections can cause scarring or darker patches of skin in some people.
19. Are some parts of Australia worse for mosquito bites?
Yes. Areas near wetlands, rivers, mangroves, and floodplains typically have higher mosquito populations. After heavy rains and flooding, mosquito numbers often surge in many regions.
20. Do mozzies bite indoors too?
Yes. If doors or windows aren’t screened properly, mosquitoes can enter and bite at night. Indoor breeding can also happen if water is left in vases, pet bowls, or plant trays.
FAQs – Mosquito Bites
1. Why do mosquito bites itch so much?
Mosquitoes inject saliva into the skin when they bite, which contains proteins that stop your blood from clotting. Your immune system reacts to these proteins, causing redness, swelling, and that familiar itchy sensation.
2. Are mosquito bites in Australia dangerous?
Most mosquito bites in Australia are harmless, but they can occasionally transmit viruses such as Ross River virus, Barmah Forest virus, Murray Valley encephalitis, and Japanese encephalitis. While serious infections are rare, prevention is always best.
3. How can I tell if a mosquito bite is infected?
Signs of infection include increasing redness, swelling, pus, warmth around the bite, and pain that worsens over time. If you notice these symptoms, it’s a good idea to see a GP.
4. What’s the best way to treat a mosquito bite at home?
Wash the bite with soap and water, apply a cold pack to reduce swelling, and use an anti-itch cream or antihistamine if needed. Avoid scratching, as this increases the chance of infection.
5. Do mosquitoes prefer certain people?
Yes. Mosquitoes are attracted to carbon dioxide, body heat, sweat, and even certain blood types. People with Type O blood and those who produce more body heat may notice they’re bitten more often.
6. Are mosquito bites worse for kids than adults?
Children often have stronger reactions to bites, with bigger red welts and more itching. The bites usually look worse than they are, but it’s important to keep kids from scratching to avoid infection.
7. Can you get allergic reactions to mosquito bites?
Some people experience “skeeter syndrome,” an allergic reaction that causes large, swollen, and painful welts. Severe reactions are rare, but if swelling spreads quickly or breathing becomes difficult, seek urgent medical help.
8. When are mosquitoes most active in Australia?
In most parts of Australia, mosquitoes are most active at dawn and dusk, especially in warm, humid months. In the tropical north, mosquitoes can be a problem year-round.
9. How can I prevent mosquito bites in Australia?
Wear light, long-sleeved clothing, use insect repellent containing DEET, picaridin, or oil of lemon eucalyptus, and sleep under mosquito nets when camping. Also, remove stagnant water around your home, as this is where mosquitoes breed.
10. Should I worry about mosquito bites when travelling around Australia?
Yes, especially in tropical and northern regions where mosquito-borne diseases are more common. Always take precautions with repellents and protective clothing. In southern parts of Australia, bites are usually just an itchy nuisance but still worth avoiding.
