Appling
Mosquito season is usually the warm months, but in Appling, that doesn’t limit it to just summer. We love it here for the beautiful woods and lakes, and even the Georgia heat, but that also means our quiet town is the perfect one for mosquitoes to settle in. And once they’ve made themselves comfortable, they’re hard to ignore.
Whether you’re dealing with them early in the spring or deep into summer,Appling mosquito control can help keep that swarm from taking over your yard. The sooner you put a barrier in place, the less they build up.
Focus on Where They Live, Not Just Where You See Them
Most of the time, you don’t see mosquitoes flying around all day, but they’re still there. Typically, they hide in dark and shady places like under decks or near tree lines. That’s why just spraying into open areas doesn’t get the job done.
When Mosquito Squad of Augusta visits, we walk the property and apply our barrier treatment right where mosquitoes like to hide. Once the product settles, it binds to those surfaces and works for up to 21 days. You’ll probably see a drop in activity fast, but the real benefit is the ongoing pressure that keeps new mosquitoes from moving in. Learn more about how ourbarrier spray works behind the scenes.
Tick Activity Can Be Easy to Miss—Until It’s Not
You may think of ticks as a rural problem, but the truth is they can take up residence anywhere, including your neighborhood. But because they’re less obvious than mosquitoes, ticks may be hiding until it’s too late and they’ve found a host to latch onto.
To prevent the risks, ourtick control service targets high-risk areas around the yard: tall grass, play areas, shady borders, and walking paths. That’s the best way to lower the chance of any contact before it happens and avoid bites before it’s too late.
Plant-Based Alternatives
Our treatments aren’t harsh or scary, but some people still prefer to avoid any synthetic ingredients at all. For those families, we offer a natural version made with essential oils that repel mosquitoes through scent rather than force.
Thenatural treatment is applied to the same shaded areas and lasts up to 21 days, giving you a more livable yard. You may notice the strong minty and citrusy smell at first, but it fades quickly and only impacts pests.
Outdoor Events Shouldn’t Have a Mosquito Problem
A lot of backyard events around Appling take place around dusk—the same time mosquitoes ramp up. If you’ve got something coming up, like a wedding, graduation, or neighborhood BBQ, it’s worth considering a one-time spray beforehand.
Ourevent treatments are applied in advance, with enough time to dry completely before anyone arrives. It’s a quick step that can help make the whole evening feel more comfortable.
