Fifteen percent of men in Mosquito Squad's 2016 Fight the Bite survey of U.S. homeowners, a provider-sponsored poll by TNS Global with an undisclosed sample size, said mosquitoes had changed their plans during the previous year. Nearly three in four, 74%, of homeowners said they worried about mosquitoes in their yard in NaturaLawn of America's March 2024 SurveyMonkey poll of 1,163 U.S. homeowners, a provider-sponsored, self-reported survey that measures concern rather than how many yards have a mosquito problem.
