What Mosquito Shield Is and How It Works

Mosquito Shield® is a professionally applied mosquito spray that kills and repels mosquitoes, ticks, and other pests.

What is in Mosquito Shield Spray

We’ve spent 20 plus years, the longest in the industry, developing our own blend of all-natural oils for our mosquito control products
Mosquito Shield® uses proprietary spray technology to maximize effectiveness.  
Our proprietary blend creates a three-pronged approach that kills, repels, and masks attractants to keep mosquitoes off your property.
We monitor both mosquito population and weather conditions and adjust our location based program as needed. 
By continually improving our formula and servicing your yard 2-3x more than competitors, we can deliver superior results and satisfaction. 

How Mosquito Shield Spray Products Work

Everyone knows the saying that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. The same is true with our approach to the use of mosquito control products.
Mask
Female mosquitoes are attracted to the scent we emit. Our mosquito proprietary blend has been specially formulated to mask it and other mosquito attractants. Once our proprietary blend barrier is up, your property will be actively avoided.
Repel
As treatments are performed, a vertical barrier is established which strengthens with each mosquito control service visit. This will protect your yard from any unwanted guests.
Kill
Any mosquitoes living around active areas of the home will be killed on contact with our mosquito proprietary blend. We train our technicians to target these areas so we can maximize the effectiveness of the spray.

I'm loving this year knowing I'm protected in my own yard. I don't even think "The mosquito are going to get me"....do I spray myself w/ chemicals or stay out side until I can take one more mosquito bite? I go to friends houses & if I start getting bites; it's terrible! I do tell friends about my remarkable year using Mosquito Shield. Could your company invent an ankle band or a wrist band w/ your product?

I found this service significantly more efficient than mosquito joe and others. They use different pesticides (and they report you back exact amounts of each used) and they treat every 2nd week at most compared to others doing 3 week schedule. Also run by friendly people with all benefits of dealing with smaller business. Definitely recommend.

We’ve been very happy with the results of our mosquito treatment. The service is seamless with text updates and despite tearing up our backyard to install a patio, we’ve not had any issues with skeeters.

Excellent customer service and came out next day. Huge difference! We used to be attacked walking to car in driveway, taking out trash or even just getting mail on front porch. None of that the past two days!

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.
