What is an Oasis Guard Mosquito Defense System®️?An Oasis Guard Mosquito Defense System®️ is a fully-automated misting system that repels and mosquitoes, flies, spiders, gnats, fleas, ticks, roaches, wasps and other outdoor insects. The system is professionally installed around homes and businesses and mists a 100% USDA-compliant organic insecticide derived from the dried flowers of Chrysanthemum Cineraria folium. If you buy organic-labeled fruits & vegetables at the grocery store, this is the same product growers use to prevent the same pests from destroying their produce.
-
Why should I choose an Oasis Guard Mosquito Defense System®️?The Oasis Guard Mosquito Defense System®️ itself is the patented “original.” It has a fully automated digital display panel. It is the only system of its kind to incorporate a level sensing float switch, agitator, pressure switch and 3-button remote control as well as a smart phone app. We offer a lifetime warranty on all original parts and labor for our service clients. Every Oasis Guard Mosquito Defense System®️ will come with a detailed instruction and maintenance manual that will help you extend the life of your entire system, including nozzles, tubing and pump.
-
Who would an Oasis Guard Mosquito Defense System®️ be good for?Any home or business owner who has to deal with the misery that comes with nasty biting insects can benefit from our system. Mosquito misting systems are typically used around: homes, pools and hot tubs, patios, decks, recreation areas, outdoor restaurants, entertainment facilities, farms and stables, more. Each system is completely customized to the unique needs of your property.
-
How does the misting system work?Our system consists of a reservoir, a control unit, and a pump that are stationed in a garage, shed or another designated outdoor area with close access to water and electricity. A timer triggers the system to pump the "juice" through the installed line, which releases a fine mist through a series of high-PSI nozzles. The system is fully automated to mist just 2 – 3 times per day at 30 – 60 second intervals. The system also includes a remote control that allows you to manually trigger the mist between regularly timed intervals, plus a battery back-up system that keeps the timer correct in the event of a power outage.
-
What should I expect in terms of the mosquitoes disappearing?Immediately! Right after the first spraying, you will notice remarkably fewer annoying insects within the boundaries of your property. After a week or two the results will be even more dramatic. Remember, however, nothing is 100% effective, but as long as the system is operating on the scheduled timer, you can expect about 95%+ efficacy.
-
How many times a day does the system need to mist?For most properties, just 2-3 times per day for approximately 30-60 seconds. This can be adjusted up or down depending on your results.
-
Why is misting better than traditional mosquito control methods such as fogging?While fogging will be effective against any live populations of mosquitoes, misting will also target the eggs before they have hatched as well as larvae. The droplets in the mist are larger than those used in fogging, so will hit their targets more effectively. If you don't already have a misting system, fogging can be a quick fix way to get your yard somewhat bug free, such as if you are hosting a party or event in your yard, but not for long term use. Fogging sprays a highly toxic chemical into the grass, landscaping, trees and bushes, and surrounding areas, thus only killing the adult mosquitoes currently present in the area or flying through the fog. This does not account for the mosquito larvae and other bugs. Additionally, with our region's somewhat temperamental climate, mosquito fogging has significantly reduced efficacy due to frequent rain. Even sprinklers can ruin it! Then there is nothing is there to replace it until the next application. When fogging is done it usually can last anywhere from 4-8 hours. An important thing to note is that fogging methods do not completely rid of the mosquitoes, they just reduces the number temporarily.

Are Oasis Guard Mosquito Defense Systems®️ technicians professionally certified?The Oasis Guard Mosquito Defense Systems®️ technicians are insured and bonded. In addition, we are licensed by the states in which we operate. But equally important, all employees are trained and certified to install and service the Oasis Guard Mosquito Defense Systems®️ system and products.

Will this system require tricky or expensive maintenance and upkeep?Nope! This is very much a durable, reliable system, requiring little to no maintenance on your part. Our trained technicials will inspect the system each time they visit the property to refill the tank. If there is any system malfunction, it is typically due to a simple external issue such as a landscaper accidentally cutting one of the pressured lines that carry the formula to the high-pressure misters, or the tank running out of "juice" before the next scheduled fill. A quick call to our office and our Oasis Guard Service 360 Promise®️ kicks in, and a technician will come out to your property to inspect the system and lines, troubleshoot the issue, and get you back up and running again.

Is the "juice" that is misted by an Oasis Guard Mosquito Defense System®️ safe? What is it, exactly?Yes! Safe for humans, pets, most all types of landscaping, and even better, for the earth! An Oasis Guard Mosquito Defense System®️ mists a 100% USDA-compliant organic insecticide derived from the dried flowers of Chrysanthemum Cineraria folium. If you buy organic-labeled fruits & vegetables at the grocery store, this is the same product growers use to prevent the same pests from destroying their produce. Fogging uses toxic chemicals called organophosphates (OPs) which are a class of insecticides, several of which are highly toxic. Until the 21st century, they were among the most widely used insecticides available. Thirty-six of them are presently registered for use in the United States, and all can potentially cause acute and subacute toxicity. The chemicals in this class of insecticides kill insects by disrupting their brains and nervous systems. Unfortunately, these chemicals can also harm the brains and nervous systems of animals and humans, and can make everyone who comes into contact with them ill. Oasis Guard's misting solution is much safer for everyone in the environment, and it kills mosquitoes JUST AS EFFECTIVELY if not more so.

What about my pets? Is this system safe for them too?We, as the owners of Oasis Guard, personally have FIVE dogs that we love and care for! Did you know that pets (most commonly dogs & cats) can be affected by mosquitoes too? Mosquito bites can cause severe irritation on their skin. For dogs and horses, mosquitoes pose the threat of transferring dog heart worm, West Nile Virus, and Eastern Equine Encephalitis. Help protect your family and precious pets with an Oasis Guard Mosquito Defense System. Whether you are looking to install a brand-new system, or have an existing service (such as fogging) but want a SAFER and BETTER alternative – contact us today to set up your free inspection and estimate!

I hate mosquitoes, but I love the bees, dragonflies, butterflies, and other beneficial insects! Is this system safe for them?What is so great about an Oasis Guard Mosquito Defense System®️ is that it creates an invisible barrier around the areas you and your family want to enjoy (without being harassed by mosquitoes and other nasty pests), but leaves the other areas of your oasis free to be enjoyed by all other insects. Because Oasis Guard effectively kills nasty pests within your oasis, being that there is no food source there, the food chain cycle is effectively eliminated within the bounds of the protected area. You'll enjoy the benefits of outdoor living without being food yourself!
