Aiken Mosquito & Pest Control
There’s a lot to love about living in Aiken, but the mosquitoes aren’t one of them. Unfortunately, our climate is the ideal condition for them, and it can start to feel like your outdoor space is getting taken over.
The key toAiken mosquito control is a plan that targets pests at the source and keeps pressure on the population throughout the season. That’s what we build for every yard we treat. Mosquito Squad of Augusta works with homeowners across Aiken to help reduce mosquitoes, ticks, and other outdoor pests.
Mosquito Control Treatments Built for Aiken Yards
Mosquitoes tend to settle in quickly once they find the right conditions: shady corners, standing water, overgrown edges. If they’re hiding out in the yard during the day, they’ll be active again once the sun starts going down.
Ourmosquito barrier treatment is made to reduce that exact activity, targeting the places where mosquitoes spend their time, like tree lines and under decks, instead of spraying into the open. Once we apply treatment, the product sticks to surfaces and keeps working for up to 21 days.
If you prefer a plant-based solution, we also apply anatural mosquito treatment made with essential oils. It acts as a scent deterrent and is applied to the same mosquito-prone areas. The smell is upsetting to mosquitoes, but to you, it will probably just be minty or citrusy at first, then fade quickly. But even if you can’t smell it, mosquitoes can, and it lasts for up to 21 days.
Targeting Tick Activity Before It Spreads
While mosquitoes have a more defined season, ticks are active a lot of the year in Aiken, even if you don’t see them. These tiny arachnids tend to stick to the edges of lawns and shaded areas, waiting for the right host to walk by. And once they’ve bitten, there’s a risk for serious diseases to spread.
Mosquito Squad of Augusta focuses on the areas where ticks are most likely to show up – that’s fence lines, near woodpiles, and in any shaded or wooded areas. Ourtick control service reduces their presence and makes the space less inviting.
Beyond Mosquitoes and Ticks
While mosquitoes and ticks are the most common pests that we hear complaints about from Aiken homeowners, they aren’t the only ones causing problems. Gnats, fleas, and flies can be frustrating as well, and they are often drawn to moist or heavily landscaped yards. We also see issues with stink bugs, spiders, and occasional rodent activity, depending on the layout of the property.
The pest control packages at Mosquito Squad were created to fit the individualized pest activity in each yard. They include regular monitoring and adjustments as needed throughout the year. So if you notice more than one kind of pest, let us know, and we can make a plan that addresses it all.
Special Event Sprays
Aiken is a great spot for outdoor events, big and small, but the magic is ruined when mosquitoes show up. Ourspecial event mosquito sprays are a one-time treatment applied before the gathering that helps create a more comfortable environment without harsh smells or residue.
Our recommendation is to spray 1-3 days before the event. That gives everything time to settle in before people arrive for the big day, and you get the peace of knowing it worked.
