Labor Day and Your Special Day - How To Keep Mosquitoes Away

Posted by Mosquito Squad

August 25, 2011

With the Labor day holiday upon us, many households will be hosting backyard celebrations. All the preparations, guest lists and planning you are working on should also include mosquito and tick control and prevention. Special events are an important time to make certain that you and your guests don’t get bitten while outdoors at your home or special event.

Mosquitoes and ticks are vectors for illnesses such as Lyme disease, West Nile Virus and many other dangerous and debilitating diseases. Don’t put you or the health of your guests at risk. Even though autumn is right around the corner, and many feel that summer is coming to an end, we are actually in the height of mosquito and tick season. Now more than ever it is important to stay focused and keep your property protected from mosquitoes.

Mosquito Squad of the North Shore is still receiving requests for mosquito and tick control for other special events such as wedding, graduation and birthday parties as well as other special events. Many of these events are larger in size than your average backyard barbecue and seating accommodations are sometimes placed near taller grasses or back up to the edges of your property or wooded areas.  Cases such as this make it crucial to treat your property to kill ticks as well as mosquitoes, since high grass and bushes are where ticks like to hide.

Aside from any special upcoming event, mosquito and tick control will also ensure you can enjoy the rest of your summer in your yard without the threat of being bitten. Even though the kids are back in school and vacation time has come to an end, there is no reason you can’t enjoy the long afternoons outside with your family and friends. Anytime can be special, even the smallest moments.

Call us now to make sure your Labor day celebration or other special event goes off without a hitch. We are now taking appointments to have you safe and sound for the Labor day weekend. Our safe and effective barrier sprays kill mosquitoes and ticks and prevent mosquitoes from entering the treated area as well. Don’t delay call today.
