How It Works

Shield your property from Mosquitoes
CLOSE X

We Attack  at the Root of the Problem

Our unique approach to tick control has been proven, effective, and noticeable results occur quickly.

Exterminate Existing Ticks

Ticks living outside on your lawn and other areas where they harbor will be killed on contact with our proprietary formula. We train our technicians to target these areas so we can maximize the effectiveness of the treatment.

Repel Ticks from your Property

Our proprietary blend contains natural oils that are known to agitate ticks. Ticks will not want to be on or stay on your property during the season.

Season Long Treatments

Treatments begin in early spring as temperatures rise and ticks become more active. We treat your property every 60 – 75 days through the summer and fall. This will shield your yard from these unwanted guests all season long.

"This will be our third year with Mosquito Shield and they cannot be beat. They spray your property more than all the other companies out there and even better is their customer service. Have never had an issue that wasn't personally resolved. They have even come out and sprayed after a rain. I was never able to enjoy our outdoors during the summer prior to getting Mosquito Shield. Best money you will ever spend. Locally owned and operated. They treat you like they would their own family."

I was skeptical about whether this service would be effective. The last few summers, we've been unable to use our yard due to the many, many aggressive mosquitoes on our property. Mosquito Shield has far exceeded our expectations. The number of mosquitos in our yard has been DRAMATICALLY reduced. My children and I spend time in the yard daily now; I think I've experienced three bites all summer, where in summers past, I'd get three bites just walking down the driveway to my car. I will most definitely use this service next summer, and feel confident recommending Mosquito Shield to my neighbors.

Mosquito Shield has been servicing our property for two years, and we have been incredibly happy with them! We do the tick and mosquito protection for our house, and since we have been using them, can actually enjoy being outside! Our daughter is very sensitive to bites, and using their services has meant that she and all of us can enjoy the outdoors more!

We Love Mosquito Shield!!! We became customers last summer after we built our deck and then realized we couldn't even use it because of all the mosquitos that were torturing us. After the first treatment, we no longer had to worry getting bites, the mosquitos were gone! They also are very fair when it comes to pricing and their customer service is exceptional. Plus, their treatment is dog friendly which our dogs were very happy about. I highly recommend them. We are forever clients!

"Local business I really enjoy supporting. I used a competitor for years. These guys get rid of my mosquitos and ticks safely and effectively. With all this rain I know mosquito eggs are hatching and we’re going to have a big problem this season in the neighborhood - but I know Mosquito Shield has our yard under control and we are covered. I’m looking forward to bug free patio and front porch swinging summer days!"

We were initially skeptical of this service because our mosquito problem was SO rough and we doubted it could be fixed by anyone; but almost instantly after the first spray last summer we never saw a mosquito again. We can actually use our yard now and we couldn't be happier that we got this service. Our neighbors have been seeing the benefit as well. It's also great that we don't need to be home when they spray and they are done very quickly. Recommended.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    01. What other insects will this affect?
    We use an insecticide so other insects present when and where we spray may be impacted.

    However, our formula was specifically engineered for mosquitoes so it won’t repel any other insects as it does mosquitoes.
    02. Will the product kill plants, vegetables, or beneficial insects in my yard?

    We are incredibly conscious of what we do and realize how it can impact our environment if applied erroneously. That’s why our technicians are trained to recognize:

    • Plants
    • Vegetables
    • Beneficial insects like pollinators
    03. Will your product work after storms?
    Yes, we have specifically engineered our formula to outlast storms. With a special polymer layer that provides weather resistance, our formula will remain effective.
    04. Is there any environment you cannot treat?
    Yes, there are some areas we won’t spray to protect the surrounding environments. Pools, natural water sources, vegetable gardens, and artificial water sources complete the list.

    Because water could easily spread the insecticides, we never directly apply our product to it. However, the rest of the property can still be sprayed and it will drastically reduce the population of mosquitoes.
    05. Does this product work on all mosquitoes and ticks ?
    Yes, we target aspects of mosquitoes and ticks that don’t change from species to species.

    The killing and repelling aspects of our product will work on any species of mosquitoes and ticks .
    06. Will the product harm my pets or children?
    Pets and children should be inside during each application. However, they can re-enter the property once the product has dried, roughly 10-15 minutes.

    At that point, there are no restrictions until the next application.
    07. When can I start to see the effects?
    Every yard is different but you should notice a dramatic reduction within 24-48 hours of the initial spray.

    With each subsequent treatment, the results continue to improve, allowing you to enjoy time outside without being chased in by swarms of mosquitoes.
    08. Why do we see more mosquitoes after it has rained?
    Mosquitoes are more abundant after it rains because standing water is where they breed.

    Adult, female mosquitoes will lay their eggs in water. Once fully submerged, the countdown begins and the eggs can hatch in as little as a few days.
