Mosquito & tick control

Make outdoor pest management part of how you care for the yard, garden and spaces your household uses.

Signs to look for

Water left in containers and dense shaded edges deserve attention when mosquitoes are a problem. Ticks are more likely to be encountered near brush, tall vegetation and routes used by animal hosts.

How treatment starts

The yard is assessed by use, habitat and access. A plan can combine changes to standing water or vegetation with treatments suited to the pest and the specific portions of the property being managed.

Timing and follow-up

Outdoor activity changes with rainfall, temperature and the surrounding environment. Discuss the season, revisit schedule and weather conditions that could require an appointment to be adjusted.

Prevention

Empty items that collect rain, maintain drainage and keep overgrown edges under control. Outdoor treatment is one part of prevention; continue using appropriate personal protection and checking for ticks.

What affects the price

Lot size alone is not the whole picture. Vegetation density, terrain, accessible treatment zones and whether both mosquitoes and ticks are included all affect the proposal.
