Three Reasons to Upgrade Your Pest Control

Fort Worth mosquito control is a smart first step for improving your outdoor enjoyment.

But mosquitoes are far from the only pests in Fort Worth that make our yards less comfortable – even usable. If you are considering or are already receiving mosquito barrier treatments with Mosquito Squad Plus, you should know Squad Yard Defender provides a broader approach to outdoor pest control in Fort Worth.

Rather than focusing on mainly mosquitoes, Yard Defender targets additional pest that are likely living and breeding throughout your property – from outdoor gathering spaces to gardens and landscape beds and beyond.

Following, are three reasons why you should consider upgrading your pest control in Fort Worth and surrounding areas.

1. Fleas Can Follow Pets and People Indoors

Fleas are much more than a backyard nuisance – they can quickly become a big problem for pets, kids, and even your home. Dogs and cats can pick up fleas from their favorite outdoor spaces, especially in shaded areas or spaces that wildlife passes through. And once fleas make their way indoors, they can be very difficult and frustrating to manage.

Outdoor flea control is smart, especially for homes with kids and pets, because it helps reduce the chance of pests taking over the places your family and pets use every day. If your pets love to lounge in the grass or enjoy time on the patio, upgrading your pest control offers added defense.

2. Ticks Can Hide Where You Least Expect, or Might Never See

Ticks are one more reason you should look beyond mosquito control alone. They patiently wait in tall grass, brush, ground litter, and wooded edges until a host walks by. That could be you, your child, or your pet. Ticks can be a concern throughout the Fort Worth area, where many backyards have shady spaces, landscaping, and are adjacent to natural areas.

Ticks can attach to our skin quietly and without pain, where they remain unnoticed, and in that time can transmit illnesses. That’s why tick control is an important part of outdoor pest control in Fort Worth. With Squad Yard Defender, Mosquito Squad Plus targets areas where ticks hide, giving your confidence and peace of mind while enjoying your outdoor spaces.

3. Fire Ants Can Take Over Outdoor Spaces

Fire ants can turn your Fort Worth area yard into a place where you have to constantly watch your step. Mounds can pop up in lawns, around patios, along walkways, and even around play areas. When disrupted, fire ants will swarm and deliver their fiery stings.

Controlling fire ants is very important if you have kids and pets, but also if you just want a backyard where you can relax and entertain guests. Upgrading your outdoor pest control from mosquito barrier treatment to Squad Yard Defender will help address more of the pests, like fire ants, that set out to interfere with everyday outdoor activity.

Our traditional mosquito barrier treatment is a fantastic choice for mosquito control. We recommend at least this seasonal package. If you’re looking for more comprehensive outdoor pest control that includes mosquito control, but also targets fleas, ticks, fire ants, ground burrowing wasps, and other common yard pests in Fort Worth, we can take your protection to the next level with Squad Yard Defender.
