Let’s be honest—ticks and mosquitoes can ruin your summer.
They don’t just bite. They carry real threats like Lyme disease and West Nile virus. If you’ve got kids or pets, the stakes are even higher. That’s why we offer tick and mosquito control for yard service that works and keeps your family safe.
Why We Take Tick and Mosquito Control So Seriously
We live here too. So when we say your safety matters, we mean it.
Rhode Island’s humid summers are the perfect breeding ground for ticks and mosquitoes. They love shady corners, damp soil, and standing water.
If your yard has even a few of these zones? You’re probably already on their menu.
That’s why we don’t just spray and leave. We follow a system that works:
We visit ten times a season, from April through October.
We treat every inch—lawns, shrubs, patios, swing sets, and even standing water.
We use essential oils like garlic, peppermint, and rosemary. Smells great to us—ticks hate it.
What Makes Our Program Different
Most tick and mosquito treatments are either too weak or too harsh. We’ve built a program that’s strong on pests, but gentle on people.
Here’s what you get with our service:
✅ Safe for Kids & Pets – No waiting to re-enter the yard. You can enjoy it the same day we spray.
✅ Covers More Than Just Ticks – We also protect against mosquitoes, fleas, gnats, and other biting bugs.
✅ No Guesswork – We come out every few weeks like clockwork. You don’t have to think about it.
✅ Smells Good, Works Better – That garlic and peppermint blend? It’s natural, pleasant, and drives pests away fast.
If you’re wondering whether it’s safe for your kids and pets, yes—it absolutely is. We made that a non-negotiable from day one.

What Makes Our Product Different (And More Effective)
You’ve probably seen chemical sprays with long names and warning labels.
We don’t use those.
The product we use is simply concentrated garlic, peppermint, and rosemary oils. It repels insects and kills their larvae organically—without harming other living organisms.
No side effects. No chemicals. No worries.
Even better? It’s proven to reduce mosquito and tick populations by 75–80%.
Safe for your pets, kids, and your yard’s ecosystem.
Other Smart Ways to Reduce Mosquito & Tick Populations
Our treatments work best when they’re part of a team effort.
Here’s what you can do between our visits to keep bugs away naturally:
For Mosquitoes:
Mosquitoes love standing water. So we always recommend a quick property check after a rainfall.
Start with these areas:
Birdbaths
Buckets
Clogged gutters
Flower pot saucers
Kiddie pools
Tarp folds
Low spots in your lawn
Drain them all—or better yet, remove them. Less water = fewer mosquitoes.
(The attached image highlights all the common standing water traps—worth printing and posting in your garage!)
For Ticks:
Ticks like tall grass and shady piles of leaves.
Here’s what to do:
Mow your lawn regularly
Trim back shrubs and wooded edges
Remove leaf piles, wood stacks, and yard debris
Put up fences or barriers to keep out deer and rodents
Eliminate trash or clutter where host animals might nest
BONUS: Want to take it a step further? Plant citronella, lavender, lemongrass, rosemary, marigolds, peppermint, or basil around your patio—six plants mosquitoes can’t stand.
How You Can Boost Results Between Visits
We’ve got the sprays and timing down. But you can help too. Here’s what we recommend between our visits:
