For Reliable Mosquito, Tick, and Pest Control in Merritt Island, FL Near You

The mild winters, fertile soil, and nearby lagoons create the perfect environment for visitors and locals to enjoy what Florida has to offer. The Banana River Lagoon and Indian River Lagoon create vast waterways for exploration, while the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge provides extensive marshland, swamps, and protected marshes. These natural areas create immense mosquito, tick, and pest pressure due to the lack of harsh winters and abundance of stagnant water and dense vegetation.

Mosquito Squad Plus offers comprehensive mosquito and pest control services for Merritt Island residents. Whether you prefer barrier treatments or robust yard defense, each of our Merritt Island pest control plans is backed by our 100% customer satisfaction guarantee!

Merritt Island Mosquito Control With Barrier Treatment

Merritt Island residents experience the pressure from Asian Tiger mosquitoes and salt-marsh swarmers. Salt-marsh swarmers breed in the local lagoons and salt marsh areas, while Asian Tiger mosquitoes tend to breed around nearby properties and local parks. In fact, female Asian Tiger mosquitoes are known to lay between 100 and 300 eggs at a time, choosing clogged gutters, flower saucers, and damp gardens as their nesting and breeding grounds. Once established, adult mosquitoes will hide in tall grasses, underneath shaded areas, and within dense vegetation.

Barrier Treatment Plus helps to reduce and control the aggressive mosquito population in Merritt Island. Our potent insecticide is known to reduce mosquitoes by 85-90% while controlling their presence for up to 21 days. By targeting areas where mosquito harborage is common, our team will create a barrier that binds to the surface and disrupts the cycle of breeding. 

For Merritt Island residents interested in plant-based treatments, we also offer a natural treatment blend of botanical oils which reduces and controls mosquitoes for up to 14 days.

Outdoor Pest Control in Merritt Island, FL

Ticks can commonly be found in Merritt Island in areas where overgrown landscaping, nature reserves, and dense vegetation are common. While blacklegged deer ticks can transmit Lyme disease to their hosts, the lone star tick is known to cause alpha-gal syndrome within its host, resulting in an unexpected red meat allergy. To reduce the effects of tick activity, always conduct tick checks after spending time in areas of brush, tall grass, or dense vegetation. No-see-ums are another frustrating problem as they bite local residents in order to feed, leading to itchy welts within 12 to 24 hours. 

Yard Defender helps to reduce the presence of ticks, no-see-ums, and other common outdoor pests found in Merritt Island. This outdoor pest plan combines liquid and granular treatments which are designed to target and reduce outdoor pest pressure. Through your tailored plan and targeted treatments, we can address the outdoor pest activity on a recurring 21 day basis.

Merritt Island Pest Control for Your Home

Merritt Island homes experience pressure from Carpenter ants, which are known to excavate damaged wood and create tunnels for their colonies. The presence of ants and other insects attract spiders to build their webs in attic spaces, on porch decks, and in garages or sheds. Cockroaches enter homes after dry spells to seek moisture and can be commonly found underneath bathroom and kitchen sinks or within drains.

Home Shield helps to reduce the presence of ants, spiders, and other indoor pests found in Merritt Island homes. This home defense package combines exclusion methods with perimeter barrier treatments to repel pests and reduce their access. Best of all, Home Shield can be designed to run in junction with your Yard Defender or Barrier Treatment Plus plan.
