Okemos, MI Mosquito Control
Mosquitoes need standing water and warm temperatures at a minimum to breed successfully. Adult females seek shaded, still water like birdbaths or clogged gutters to lay eggs in. For Okemos, MI mosquito control, our mosquito barrier treatment is popular with homeowners here. It’s designed to help control up to 85-90% of mosquitoes for up to 3 weeks. During active pest season, we recommend recurring applications every three weeks, so outdoor dinners and quiet afternoons are more comfortable.
A Natural Mosquito Treatment Option
If you have delicate flowers or are a pollinator hub, a natural mosquito treatment option may be a better fit for your home. This treatment option uses botanical oils, with effects lasting up to 21 days. This treatment is best paired with yard upkeep to help reduce mosquito activity.
Okemos, MI Tick Control
Ticks can wait in tall grass, brush, and leaf litter for a person or animal to pass close by. Some ticks transmit Lyme disease and other illnesses. Professional tick control targets likely hiding areas around your property. Keeping vegetation trimmed, clearing accumulated leaves, and checking people and pets after outdoor activities provide additional precautions.
Flea, Gnat, and Stink Bug Control in Okemos
Mosquitoes and ticks are not the only pests in Oklahoma that homeowners may come across. Other pests that crawl or fly may cause frustrations for homeowners every day and when hosting. Fleas and gnats are drawn to shaded, damp areas, especially when there's access to organic materials. If you have pets, consult your veterinarian for appropriate medical treatment. Moving into fall temperatures, stink bugs may cluster near windows or seek entry through gaps in siding.
