Barrier Protection Tick Control in Las Cruces

Mosquito Squad’s barrier protection treatments provide weeks of tick control. The same solutions that are used in mosquito control barrier treatment are highly effective in controlling ticks around your property. Your Mosquito Squad technician will scrutinize your property to help you identify potential tick habitats. They will help you break them up, treat the areas, and offer tips on how to keep habitats from forming on your property. Our barrier tick control treatments come in our traditional formula, as well as a non-synthetic treatment comprised of natural ingredients that repel ticks for up to three weeks between treatments.

Tick Tubes, Game-Changers of Tick Control

In addition to Mosquito Squad’s barrier protection treatments, we also offer a tick tube service. Tick tubes are genius methods of extending your tick control efforts through the typical tick off-season. These tick-fighting cylinders contain treated cotton which is dispersed by rodents seeking materials for nest building for the cool seasons. The tick treatment will rub onto the rodents’ fur, and when a tick tries to feed on that rodent’s blood, it will encounter the treatment. This tick-fighting formula is a bad sign for ticks, but it does not harm the rodents.

The Best Control for Ticks, a Unified Front
