What sets us apart is our technical expertise, problem-solving skills, and customer-first approach. Dan, our lead technician and head of operations, has become an expert in pest control through continuous education, including coursework at Cornell. We inspect properties to identify mosquito breeding grounds and harboring areas and ensure our applications avoid flowering plants to protect pollinator activity. For example, when a customer was experiencing mosquito breakthroughs, we traced the issue to a storm drain maintained by the city and resolved it promptly. This attention to detail is what separates us from larger, less personalized providers. Our mosquito season runs from May through September/October, while our tick protection options extend from mid-April through early October. We also offer Perimeter Shield, a valuable service to address additional pest concerns, particularly for properties in wooded areas. While mosquito activity is most prominent during these months, we’re always ready to adjust our services if weather conditions or customer needs call for it. Consistent treatments are key to reducing mosquito activity. We visit properties every 10-17 days, carefully monitoring conditions like weather and wind speed to ensure effective application. Our proprietary Mosquito Protection Blend (MPB) combines essential oils and control products applied responsibly to create a mosquito-controlled setting for our customers. These treatments take only 10-15 minutes, and homeowners can return to their yards once the application dries.
At Mosquito Shield of North Central New Jersey, our ultimate goal is to help you reclaim your outdoor spaces. Whether you’re hosting a barbecue, spending time with family, or simply relaxing, our services enhance your outdoor comfort by reducing mosquito activity. For smaller properties closer to NYC, our mosquito control solutions often address tick concerns as well. In larger, wooded areas, we recommend additional services like Perimeter Shield to ensure comprehensive protection. Our personal approach has earned us trust in the community. For example, we had a customer who noticed persistent mosquito activity despite treatment. After inspecting the property, Dan discovered that a neighboring landlord’s property was the source. We collaborated with the landlord to address the issue, eliminating the problem and restoring the customer’s outdoor enjoyment.
We invite you to experience the difference of working with a family-owned, local business that genuinely cares about its community. We believe in providing honest, reliable service, as demonstrated by our decision not to oversell treatments like Tick Shield to customers with smaller yards where mosquito control is sufficient. Let us show you why so many homeowners trust us to meet their mosquito control needs. If you’re ready to take the first step toward reducing mosquito activity in your yard, contact us today. Together, we’ll create a mosquito-controlled setting where you can feel at home.
