So, what is it exactly that we do?

First we will always call you to let you know when we are coming out, this way you can make sure your pets are inside and the property is clear of any children’s toys, or anything else you do not want exposed.

When we arrive at your property, we will treat all of your ornamental trees and shrubs, we will treat the lawn areas, open spaces, and all of your planting beds and foundation areas. 

Guaranteed tick control April – Labor Day with one treatment!

Using our Chemical option, we have found that 1 treatment provides excellent season long control of ticks.  However, if you should find that the ticks are persistent on your property prior to Labor Day, we will gladly treat the entire area again at no extra charge. We will continue to work on your property at no extra charge until the problem has been resolved.

Fall Tick Control?

Being on Cape Cod, many of our customers are summer residents and a single application is sufficient.  However, if you live here year round, or at least use your home through the fall, it is recommended to have another tick treatment in late September or October.  This is the time when ticks become very active again and breed!  Each female tick will lay up to 3000 eggs!  We want to kill these ticks before the lay their eggs.  We offer a two treatment program that will eliminate ticks for the entire year!

The product we use is called Bifenthrin.  Bifenthrin is a pyrethroid insecticide, which means it is a synthetic formulation of pyrethrin.  Pyrethrin insecticide is derived from the chrysanthemum flower. (Label)   It is E.P.A registered, and we are all licensed by the State of Massachusetts to apply this product. According to label recommendations it is safe for you to re-enter the treated areas as soon as it has dried, usually 20-30 minutes. And if you have berries or fruit trees, you can harvest fruit 7 days after a treatment.
