Lexington, SC Pest Control for Mosquitoes, Ticks, and More
Warm weather and wooded neighborhoods can be found across Lexington, SC. Lake Murray makes up the north border of the city, drawing families and tourists to spend time in the multiple recreation areas and parks. A side effect of living near such a large body of water and woods is that it is the perfect environment for wildlife, mosquitoes, and ticks. Mosquito Squad Plus of Columbia can provide treatments tailored to your property, how close you are to bodies of water, and what pests have been seen.
Mosquito Control in Lexington
Mosquitoes develop in standing water and often rest in shaded vegetation during the day. Birdbaths, plant saucers, toys, clogged gutters, tarps, and low areas can hold enough water to support breeding. Their bites are irritating, and some mosquitoes can transmit illnesses such as West Nile virus.
Homeowners can discourage activity by emptying water-holding items, clearing gutters, and maintaining dense vegetation. For professional support, our mosquito barrier treatment targets common resting and breeding areas around the property. It helps control up to 85-90% of mosquitoes for up to 3 weeks. Recurring service is scheduled every 3 weeks during the usual treatment season to help maintain control through changes in populations.
For homeowners who want an alternative option, our natural treatment option is made with botanical oils that can remain effective for up to 21 days.
Tick Control in Lexington
Ticks, small arachnids, seek shelter in tall grass, brush, and even under decks. They move from place to place by latching onto a host, so if your yard is a pass-through for wildlife, it could mean a higher number of ticks. Make sure you check people and pets for any lingering ticks before coming back inside.
Our tick control treatments are focused on areas where ticks are most likely to rest or travel. Preventing ticks is especially important as they can carry diseases such as Rocky Mountain spotted fever and Lyme disease. If, during our routine inspections, technicians feel that tick tubes may benefit your property. These are placed once in the spring, and a second can be placed in the fall upon request.
Pest Packages for Ants, Spiders, and More
Mosquitoes and ticks are not the only pests that can create problems around Lexington homes. Ants may build colonies near pavement, foundations, or landscape materials. If you notice an increase in spider activity, it could mean you have other insects moving onto your property. Start looking for signs that other pests might be making themselves at home. Cockroaches look for moisture and food, similar to ants.
Our pest control packages make it easier to address several concerns through one coordinated plan. We can recommend a pest control package that combines the most relevant treatments for your yard, home perimeter, or indoor spaces. Depending on the needs of your property, service may include treatment for mosquitoes, ticks, spiders, ants, fleas, cockroaches, rodents, and other approved pests.
