BACKYARD MOSQUITO Control IN MERRILL, WI

For Reliable Mosquito, Tick, and Pest Control in Merrill Near You

The Wisconsin River provides the perfect area for Merrill residents to relax and enjoy nature. Unfortunately, the marshy borders, seasonal floodplains, and backwaters also provide areas for mosquitoes, ticks, and other pests to reproduce and thrive. Mosquitoes are particularly disruptive during the June through September months, as they breed and hatch within relatively short timeframes.

Mosquito Squad Plus offers comprehensive mosquito and pest control treatments to support Merrill residents. Whether your home needs recurring barrier treatments or one-time sprays for events, our local technicians are here to help. Best of all, each of our pest control treatments are backed by our 100% customer satisfaction guarantee.

Merrill Mosquito Control With Barrier Treatment

While mosquitoes are at their peak during the months of June through September, they begin their hatching cycle during the springtime. Once adult mosquitoes begin to emerge, they can quickly begin reproducing in only one bottle cap worth of water. This means clogged gutters, covered patio furniture, and overwatered gardens can all create the ideal environment for mosquitoes to breed. Tall grasses, decaying leaf litter, and mature trees provide the perfect areas for mosquitoes to escape the heat of the sun and extend their lifecycle. 

Barrier Treatment Plus addresses this reality by using an EPA-registered blend to reduce and control the mosquito population. Designed to bind to the surface, this mosquito control treatment creates a barrier between mosquitoes and their nest areas while breaking the cycle of breeding. One traditional treatment provides an effective defense for up to 21 days, and will be reapplied on a rolling basis for the duration of your mosquito control plan. For those seeking natural treatment options, we also offer a blend of botanical oils which lasts for up to 14 days. 

Outdoor Pest Control in Merrill, WI

While mosquitoes are a frustrating nuisance, North Central Wisconsin has another common pest to look out for. Deer ticks are common in dense vegetation, brush, and tall grasses, and transmit Lyme disease to their host. Known to quest at the easiest height, these pests don’t actively hunt down their host. Instead, they wait at the height of animals, children, and passerbys in order to easily latch onto clothing or open skin. Once attached, ticks are known to burrow within hairlines, behind ears, and between toes to avoid detection. 

Yard Defender is designed to address mosquitoes, ticks, and other common outdoor pests which can be found in Merrill yards. By using a combination of liquid and granular treatments, our technicians will target areas around the home where ticks tend to harbor and rest. Combined with potent barrier treatments, this comprehensive package can reduce and control tick activity for 21 days at a time.

Merrill Pest Control for Your Home

While many pests remain outdoors, there are a few that tend to enter Merrill homes throughout the year. Carpenter ants excavate damaged wood from homes as they expand their network of tunnels and nests. Whether it’s from a leaky roof or basement flooding, these ants can exacerbate a structural issue and lead to the warping and sagging of wood structures. Boxelder bugs enter homes in the fall to escape the cooler weather. They hide in the wall voids and emerge in the springtime as temperatures begin to rise again.

Home Shield helps to defend against ants, boxelder bugs, and even rodents that enter Merrill homes. This multi-faceted pest control package combines barrier treatments with EPA-registered products to reduce and control the indoor pest population. By using exclusion methods to seal up points of entry, while laying specialty baits, we can create a perimeter that defends your home and significantly reduce current pest visitors.
