Barrier Treatment Plus

A Legacy of Mosquito and Pest Control Innovation and Protection

For nearly two decades, Mosquito Squad has been at the forefront of pest control innovation. Since inventing the Traditional Barrier Treatment in 2005, we've delivered more than 2 million treatments nationwide to 500,000 satisfied customers. Our commitment to providing effective solutions has led to the development of our proprietary Essential Botanical Insecticide. This natural blend harnesses the power of essential oils to help repel a wide range of pests, including mosquitoes, ticks, and spiders. 

Recognizing the growing need for even more comprehensive protection, we created the Barrier Treatment Plus to offer a more robust solution for our customers. This enhanced service not only targets mosquitoes, but also effectively addresses additional pests such as fleas, ticks, and spiders, providing broader coverage for outdoor spaces. By combining our extensive experience with cutting-edge technology, we continue to exceed the expectations of our customers.

Why Traditional Barrier Treatment Plus?

The Mosquito Squad® Traditional Barrier Treatment is our flagship solution for effective mosquito control, designed to provide maximum protection for your yard. Using advanced equipment, we apply specially formulated, EPA-registered products that meet both local and federal standards. This powerful treatment helps eliminate up to 90% of mosquitoes and other pests, continuing to protect your yard for up to 21 days.

The development of our Traditional Barrier Treatment Plus stemmed from our commitment to continuously improve pest control services for our customers. As we learned more about the evolving needs of homeowners, we recognized that a more comprehensive approach was necessary to provide longer-lasting and broader protection. The Traditional Barrier Treatment Plus builds upon our trusted foundation, offering enhanced pest control that targets not only mosquitoes, but also ticks, spiders, fleas, and other common pests.

Before we begin, our expert technicians conduct a thorough inspection of your property, customizing a treatment plan based on its unique layout and potential mosquito hotspots. We’ll inspect areas like standing water, dense vegetation, shaded spots, and more—targeting the places where pests are most likely to breed, feed, and hide to develop a comprehensive and effective control solution.

BACKYARD PEST CONTROL TREATMENT FAQS

How much does the traditional barrier treatment cost?

Mosquito Squad is committed to offering fair, upfront, and competitive rates. Mosquito Squad pricing for service varies, depending on your property’s size and location. Contact your local Mosquito Squad for a free consultation with absolutely no obligation. After this consultation, we’ll provide a no-hassle quote that is customized to your needs.

How long does the traditional barrier treatment last?

The Mosquito Squad® traditional barrier treatment lasts up to 21 days. If you received a treatment from another provider or used a DIY product, the duration of efficacy depends on the product and application technique.

How good is DIY spray vs professional barrier spray?

There are off-the-shelf repellents, “zappers,” candles, plants, and other options available on the market. The effectiveness of these store-bought products varies, but they often deliver minimal, temporary results. Professional pest control can last longer and be more thorough – that is, if you choose a provider with an effective formula, advanced equipment, and techniques designed for treating the proper areas.

Why are there so many mosquitoes in my backyard?

Yards with lots of mosquitoes likely have one or more of these conditions, which promote mosquito sheltering and breeding:

  • Stagnant/standing water

  • Clogged or dirty gutters

  • Excessive organic debris, overgrown vegetation, and old tree stumps

  • Unnecessary backyard belongings

 

Is the traditional barrier treatment safe?

Our pest control team is trained to apply our traditional barrier treatments with the utmost care for your family's safety and the health of your landscape. We use yard-friendly practices to help protect pollinators and plants. After each treatment, we recommend waiting for the treatment to dry before allowing children and pets to return to the treated areas. Plus, with our Essential Botanical Insecticide option, you can enjoy an even more thoughtful solution that’s gentle on the environment while still providing effective pest protection.
