Our Professionals Use Barrier Tick Control
Mosquito Squad’s own traditional barrier mosquito treatment is also effective for tick control around your home or business. Our tick control professionals will seek out potential tick habitats and interrupt them. After that, our traditional or non-synthetic barrier treatment will be deployed, providing about three weeks of efficacy before your next treatment is due. Our barrier treatment is better utilized from April through October.
Our Professionals Use Tick Control Tubes
Mosquito Squad’s tick control tubes are a great way to extend your seasonal defenses through autumn and winter. Tick tubes are biodegradable cylinders filled with treated cotton, which will be carried to the nests of ground rodents during the cold months. These rodents will deliver tick treatment by proxy to the ticks that try to live among their nests or attempt to latch on for a blood meal.
Our Professionals Use Granular Tick Control
Last but not least, is Mosquito Squad’s granular tick control treatment. These pest control granules are a highly effective and long-lasting choice for out-of-season tick control. Often utilized as part of our Winter Protection Plan, granular tick control is applied in concert with a final barrier treatment in late autumn. While the barrier treatment will treat ticks for about three weeks, the granules will remain effective for much longer. This form of tick and pest control will continue working for 90 days, slowly dissipating with environmental moisture. These granules will treat ground-dwelling pests to reduce the number of emerging pests in the spring.
