Most everyone gets excited about the warmer weather and the coming of spring, but “To Do” lists… maybe not so much. And yet we know that if we take care of the work early we can relax a little more throughout the summer. Maybe your list looks like this:

  • Service the lawnmower
  • Pressure wash the deck
  • Clean out leftover storm debris and standing water (aka. eliminate tick & mosquito habitats)
  • Plant flowers
  • Clean out the garage
  • Schedule your Spring Irrigation Startup
  • Get your vacuum breaker test
  • Schedule your seasonal pest control services
  • Wash the outside of your windows
  • Trim the bushes

Wow! You’re planning on being busy for a few days. At Mosquito Squad of the Twin Cities and our sister-brand, Conserva Irrigation, we are ready to handle your pest control plan and irrigation needs so you can focus on the other things.
