Plymouth Outdoor Pest Control
With its mix of parks, green spaces, and family-friendly neighborhoods, Plymouth is a place where being outside just feels right—until mosquitoes decide to show up. These uninvited guests can make even the best backyard feel off-limits. That’s where Plymouth mosquito control from Mosquito Squad of Metro Detroit comes in. We offer treatments designed to help reduce mosquitoes, ticks, and other outdoor pests so you can make the most of your time outside.
Mosquitoes: Small Insects, Big Disruption
Mosquitoes may be tiny, but they sure know how to ruin an evening. They breed fast and thrive in even the smallest amount of standing water. Add some shade and moisture—like what you’ll find in a typical backyard—and it’s a perfect setup for an ongoing problem. Along with the usual annoyance, mosquitoes are known carriers of diseases like West Nile virus and Zika.
Our approach starts with identifying areas mosquitoes love—dense plant beds, under decks, and around the yard’s perimeter. From there, we apply either a traditional barrier treatment or a natural formula made with essential oils, depending on your preference. Both are designed to remain effective for up to 21 days and are applied with attention to where mosquitoes hide, rest, and breed.
Helping Keep Ticks Away from Your Yard
Ticks are quiet, but they carry a big health risk. They’re common in Michigan and can spread Lyme disease, anaplasmosis, and other infections with a single bite. In a town like Plymouth—with its wooded edges and trail-adjacent properties—ticks are something homeowners should be thinking about.
To reduce their presence, our team targets tick-prone areas around the yard: tree lines, tall grasses, brush, and shaded paths. We also offer tick tubes for clients who want long-term population control. These are placed in the fall and help disrupt ticks before they reach maturity. Curious about the process? Our tick control overview breaks down the method in more detail.
Wasps, Boxelder Bugs, and Other Common Pests
Mosquitoes and ticks may be the headline pests, but they’re not the only ones making trouble. In late summer and fall, boxelder bugs become a regular concern—gathering on siding and trying to make their way inside as the weather shifts. Wasps are another issue, especially when nests go unnoticed under eaves or play equipment. Their stings can be painful and, in some cases, dangerous.
At Mosquito Squad of Metro Detroit, we treat a wide range of outdoor pests—not just the obvious ones. For boxelder bugs, we apply exterior treatments to stop them from entering your home. For wasps, we inspect for nesting zones and apply deterrents to high-risk areas. Every service is customized based on your property and the specific issues you're facing.
