Can a Yard Be Treated for Fleas and Ticks?

Yes. Professional flea and tick yard treatments by Mosquito Squad Plus of Nashville can help reduce activity around your Nashville area property.

This can be immensely valuable for families with children and pets, or for anyone who loves spending time outdoors at home.

Where Do Fleas and Ticks Hide in Yards?

Fleas and ticks are not adapted to exposure to the elements, and so they often hide in cool, moist, and shady areas around the yard. This might be tall grass, underneath dense shrubbery, along property lines with trees, under decks and porches, or near areas where pets (or wildlife) spend time. Small as they are, fleas and ticks are already difficult to spot – so their backyard hideouts make them doubly difficult to find. That is, until we find them on ourselves, a family member, or pet.

While keeping grass neatly trimmed and yards free of debris, and discouraging wildlife visitors can be a part of making your property less inviting to pests, these steps are not always enough. A professional yard treatment for fleas, ticks, and other terrestrial invaders by Mosquito Squad Plus is a smart choice for Nashville area properties dealing with these unwelcome visitors.

Nashville pest control through our Squad Yard Defender plan provides year-round treatment for fleas, ticks, mosquitoes, outdoor ants, spiders, and more than a dozen types of outdoor pests that try to make your backyard their favorite place to be. Our trained and experienced pest control technicians start with a thorough inspection of your property to specifically identify areas that might support pest activity. Treatments are then strategically applied for optimum protection for the next 21 days, at which time you’ll receive your next treatment.

Whether you’re looking for a solution that knocks pests out on contact or one that continues to work after the treatment is applied, Yard Defender does both. This treatment plan is ideal for Nashville area properties who are looking for a long-term solution to their outdoor pest pressures, no matter the pest or time of year.
