Highland Outdoor Pest Control

There’s a lot to enjoy in Highland—plenty of space, trees, and room to breathe. But that same environment is just as appealing to mosquitoes. Once they show up, it doesn’t take long before your backyard turns into a no-go zone. Highland mosquito control from Mosquito Squad of Metro Detroit is designed to help keep that from happening. Our treatments are tailored to your property, aiming to reduce mosquito activity so your outdoor space actually feels usable again.

Mosquito Treatments in Highland

In Highland, mosquito season hits hard once the temps rise. And it’s not just the occasional bite that’s the problem. These pests breed quickly and are known carriers of illnesses like West Nile and heartworm. If you’ve got any kind of standing water—birdbaths, gutters, tarps—mosquitoes are likely making the most of it.

Our treatment targets the spots where mosquitoes hide and rest: along the perimeter, in the shade under leaves, and around thick vegetation. We offer both a traditional barrier application and a natural version made with essential oils. Each is designed to last for up to 21 days, and if you’re looking for a longer-term plan, we can set up a recurring service that works with your schedule.

Highland Tick Control Options

Ticks don’t make a lot of noise—but the risks they carry are serious. Lyme disease, babesiosis, and anaplasmosis are just a few of the illnesses they’ve been linked to, and their presence in southeastern Michigan continues to grow. In Highland, where wooded areas and brush are common, that risk goes up.

Our team works to reduce tick populations by focusing treatments in the areas where ticks typically thrive—places like fence lines, the edges of wooded property, and dense grass. We also offer tick tubes, which help control young ticks during the cooler months when they’re easiest to disrupt. To get a better idea of how that system works, take a look at our tick control breakdown.

Other Pests in Highland

Mosquitoes and ticks might be the biggest names in pest control, but they’re far from the only issue for Highland homeowners. Boxelder bugs, for example, start to show up in late summer and early fall. They cluster around windows and walls, looking for a way inside once temperatures start to dip. While they’re not harmful, they’re definitely annoying—especially in large numbers.

Ants are another common concern, and once they find a food source, they move fast. Patios, kitchens, basements—it doesn’t take long for them to make themselves at home. At Mosquito Squad, we don’t just spray and go. We take the time to identify what kind of pests you’re dealing with and how best to approach them. Our treatments are adjusted based on where the activity is and what’s likely to attract those pests in the first place.
