Is there a difference in commercial tick control in Austin and residential tick control in Austin?
Mosquito Squad offers the same level of protection for both our commercial and residential tick control services.
Our tick control treatment consists of the same spray we use during a traditional mosquito barrier treatment. Our technicians will visit your Austin business or home and learn about your tick problem. We'll identify any trouble areas across your property. From here, we can apply our tick control treatment to these areas. We track the result of your tick control treatment. Ultimately, we expect our treatment to reduce the tick population on your property.
We recommend getting our tick control treatment approximately every three weeks. This helps you get the most value out of your tick control investment. By scheduling periodic tick control treatments, you are well equipped to minimize the tick population on your property for the foreseeable future.
Along with our standard tick control treatment, we offer tick tubes for cooler months. With tick tubes, we focus on the mice that carry ticks that populate your property.
Before we install our biodegradable tick tubes, we determine the best spots on your property to install them. We incorporate insecticide-soaked cotton that mice collect and use for bedding into our tick tubes. Thus, when ticks climb onto the body of a mouse, they will be taken to their nest and poisoned by the cotton.
