Halloween Vampires

Vampires have had a lot of notoriety on television and movies, such as The Vampire Diaries and the Twilight Trilogy, over the last decade. In reality, these vampire-like creatures that need a blood meal are mosquitoes and ticks. Mosquito Squad wants to protect you, your family, and your pets from these blood sucking creatures. Not only is there risk for diseases such as West Nile Virus and Zika, they are also just annoying. Their bite can sting and leave behind an itchy and welted reminder. What do vampires have in common with these pests besides the obvious need for blood? They all dislike garlic. Mosquito Squad offers a garlic based Natural Treatment- yes, garlic, to ward off these vampire-like pests! We also have our trademark Standard Barrier Treatment for these biting and stinging pests. Call 262-784-9480 if you are worried about these blood sucking vampires this Halloween! Have a safe and bug free yard this Halloween.
