Enjoy your yard again without the worry of harsh chemicals. Natural mosquito and tick control services offer a powerful, plant-based alternative to traditional synthetic treatments. By harnessing the pest-fighting properties of botanical oils and minerals, these services provide a safe environment for your family and pets while effectively repelling disease-carrying pests.
Why Choose a Natural Service?
  • Family & Pet Safety: Treatments are typically non-toxic and biodegradable, making them safe for children and pets to return to the yard within 30 minutes of application.
  • Protect Beneficial Insects: Unlike broad-spectrum chemicals, natural formulas are designed to target mosquitoes and ticks specifically, preserving vital pollinators like bees and butterflies.
  • No Chemical Residue: These plant-derived solutions break down quickly, leaving no persistent toxic residues in your soil or local water sources.

In response to increased pressure from mosquitoes, ticks and tick-borne illnesses, we utilize backpack-style power misters. These machines provide a finer droplet spray with better overall coverage, thus more protection for you, your family and your pets. We use all-natural products containing cedar, peppermint, clove, citronella, lemongrass, and geranium oils.  Applications will be made twice per month from April through November. Individual programs may be tailored to cover specific time periods.

Mosquitoes and ticks are more than just a nuisance; they are biological vectors that spread dangerous germs–including viruses, bacteria, and parasites–to humans through their bites.

Common Mosquito-Borne Diseases

In the United States and abroad, mosquitoes transmit several serious illnesses:
  • West Nile Virus: The leading cause of mosquito-borne disease in the continental U.S.. While most people have no symptoms, it can lead to severe neurologic illnesses like encephalitis or meningitis.
  • Malaria: A parasitic infection that causes high fever and chills. Though mostly found in tropical regions, isolated local cases sometimes occur in the U.S..
  • Zika Virus: Primarily spread by Aedes mosquitoes. It is particularly dangerous for pregnant women, as it can cause severe birth defects.
  • Dengue Fever: Often called “breakbone fever” due to intense joint and muscle pain. Repeated infections significantly increase the risk of fatal hemorrhagic fever.
  • Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE): A rare but highly dangerous virus; roughly one-third of those who contract it die.

Common Tick-Borne Diseases

Ticks transfer pathogens into the bloodstream during their feeding process, which can last from hours to days.

  • Lyme Disease: The most common vector-borne illness in the U.S.. Early signs often include a bull’s-eye rash, and if left untreated, it can spread to the joints, heart, and nervous system.
  • Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (RMSF): A bacterial disease that can be fatal if not treated within the first five days of symptoms. It typically presents with a distinct red, dot-like rash.
  • Ehrlichiosis & Anaplasmosis: Bacterial infections that cause flu-like symptoms, including fever, chills, and muscle aches.
  • Powassan Virus: A rare but serious virus that can be transmitted in as little as 15 minutes after a tick attaches.
