Walled Lake is a great place to enjoy the outdoors—especially if your yard opens up to the trees, water, or one of the area’s many trails. But those peaceful surroundings can also bring mosquitoes in full force. If you’re tired of swatting your way through summer, Walled Lake mosquito control from Mosquito Squad of Metro Detroit can help. Our treatments are built to target mosquitoes, ticks, and other pests so you can spend more time outside and less time fighting off bites.
Taking Control of Mosquito Hotspots
Mosquitoes multiply quickly in warm, wet conditions. A flowerpot with pooled water or a forgotten birdbath can support a whole new batch in just days. Once they’re active, they don’t just cause irritation—they can also carry harmful viruses like West Nile and Zika.
To cut back on mosquito activity, we apply a barrier treatment that targets shaded and damp areas where they’re known to gather—along hedges, under decks, and at the edge of the yard. Our team offers a traditional spray option as well as a natural formula made with essential oils. Both are designed to be effective for up to 21 days per application, and we offer recurring service plans to keep your yard covered for longer.
Reducing Tick Activity Around the Yard
Ticks are hard to spot, but they bring big concerns. These pests are known carriers of Lyme disease, Powassan virus, and other illnesses that affect both people and pets. In areas like Walled Lake—where wooded property lines, tall grasses, and damp brush are common—ticks have plenty of places to thrive.
Our tick control service focuses on those risk zones, using targeted applications to help limit exposure. We treat along fence lines, tree bases, and other spots where ticks typically wait for a host. For longer-term control, tick tubes are also available—small devices that help reduce the next generation of ticks by treating the rodents they depend on during the early stages of life. These are a key component of our tick control approach, designed for both immediate relief and future prevention.
Other Pests to Keep on Your Radar
Mosquitoes and ticks aren’t the only outdoor pests that show up in Walled Lake. Ants are a common concern—especially during warmer months when they start marching into patios, outdoor kitchens, and even inside homes in search of food. Left unchecked, an ant colony can grow quickly and become tough to remove.
Boxelder bugs are another pest that pop up seasonally, especially in late summer and early fall. They gather in large numbers on sunny walls and siding, often trying to sneak indoors as temperatures drop. While they don’t bite or sting, they’re stubborn and hard to get rid of once inside.
Mosquito Squad treatments are flexible enough to target these nuisances, too. We customize our services based on your property’s layout and the specific pests you’re dealing with—focusing on both prevention and reduction.
