Tick Suppression Programs
Our State Licensed and trained technicians will focus on the areas of your property that see the most animal travel (because the animals are bringing the ticks onto your property), such as planting beds, stone walls, bushes, and low hanging trees.
We will spray the entire of the property’s borders (if applicable) to further protect your from these dangerous pests during each application! Our techs will spray 4 feet high and 10 feet in on all previously mentioned areas on each application. Multiple applications are required to kill and continuously repel these pests!
