Most common areas are the undersides of leaves, dense shrubbery, under decks, long grass and in damp shady areas of the property. We recommend you keep your grass short during tick & mosquito season, but we will still spray your grass if you have elected for us to treat ticks.

Our standard treatment primarily targets mosquitoes, but is also effective at reducing the number of ticks in your yard. Flies, Gnats, and Midges are also affected, but the residual attribute of the product is not effective at long-term suppression for these insects.

No one needs to be present at the time of treatment. As long as your gate is unlocked and your pets are inside, our technician can treat. Our trained professionals will obtain any information pertinent to your location when you sign up for our service.

Your technician will leave a detailed treatment form on the front door upon completion. Information on this form will include the date and time of service, the chemicals used during the visit, as well as any comments or helpful hints the technician may have to help you keep your property as pest free as possible before your next scheduled visit.
