Technician mist-treating shrubs and lawn edges for mosquito and tick reduction

Mosquitoes and ticks rest in the shaded, humid parts of your property - leaf litter, tall grass, ivy, under decks and the underside of shrubs. Seasonal treatments target those harborage zones and the standing water that breeds them, so the yard is usable again.

Signs you need mosquito & tick control

  • Biting pressure that makes the yard unusable at dusk
  • Ticks found on pets or clothing after yard work
  • Standing water in gutters, tarps, planters or low spots
  • Dense ivy, ground cover or leaf litter along wooded property lines
  • Mosquitoes indoors every time a door opens

How we treat it

01

Property walk-through

We identify breeding sites and harborage zones and tell you which ones you can eliminate for free.

02

Barrier treatment

Foliage, under decks, fence lines and shaded resting areas treated on a monthly seasonal schedule.

03

Season-long coverage

Recurring service from spring through the first hard frost, when Delaware's biting season finally ends.

Why this matters in Delaware

Delaware's tidal marshes, inland ponds and Sussex County wetlands make mosquito season long and intense, and blacklegged (deer) ticks carrying Lyme disease are established statewide in wooded and edge habitat.

Where we provide this service

Mosquito & Tick Reduction is available in every Delaware county.
