Protect the Pets and People You Love with Natural Mosquito and Tick Spray in Metro West

Mosquitoes and ticks have always been a nuisance: the tick-ick factor, restless nights with itchy kids, and good-natured dogs constantly scratching. But today, they’re much more than a backyard annoyance.

Mosquitoes and ticks have become a real public health concern across Newton, Framingham, Waltham, and Wayland.

These pests are now dangerous disease vectors, transmitting illnesses like Lyme disease, Eastern equine encephalitis (EEE), and West Nile virus to humans and animals alike. For pets, add heartworm disease to the list. Worse, they can bite before you even know they’re there.

That’s why all-natural mosquito and tick control is essential for safely enjoying your Metro West backyard.

Where we spray

Effective tick yard treatment means targeting the areas pests love most. Here’s how we protect your property in Metro West:

  • We spray the perimeter of your yard, extending 6–10 feet into wooded edges and tree lines.
  • We turn over leaf litter where ticks hide and spray vertically 6–10 feet up into tree branches where mosquitoes rest.
  • We spray around fences, home foundations, decks, porches, pools, patios, swing sets, and any moisture-collecting areas.
  • We also treat vegetation throughout your yard interior.

Tip: Treatments work best when lawns are mowed weekly and standing water or leaf litter is regularly cleared — especially during peak seasons in cities like Newton and Framingham.

What’s in Our Tick and Mosquito Control Products?

(We don’t hide behind unpronounceable ingredients.)

Want to know what makes our formula so effective — and great smelling? Here’s how each ingredient contributes and works together to help keep pests in their place (off your property!).

ACTIVE INGREDIENTS:
LEMONGRASS OIL:
Lemongrass oil contains citronella, a natural insect repellent that works by masking odors that attract insects so it’s harder to locate their human or animal target!
GERANIOL:
This plant-based compound is made of geranium and citronella and, like lemongrass oil, interferes with a tick’s ability to locate its host.
CASTOR OIL:
Bugs hate both the scent and texture of castor oil.
SODIUM LAURYL SULFATE:
A common ingredient in dish soap and shampoo, SLS helps the repellent spread evenly across surfaces to ensure proper distribution.
CORN OIL:
Corn oil serves as a “carrier” for the other active ingredients, ensuring even application and adhesion.
INERT INGREDIENTS:
WATER:
We use fresh water to dilute the repellent so it’s easier to apply.
SOAP:
Soap is needed to emulsify the oil-based active ingredients in water for consistent mixture.
OLEIC ACID:
This fatty acid found in olive oil acts as a stabilizing agent.
1-MONOLAURIN:
This sounds scary, but it’s a naturally occurring compound found in coconut oil, and mosquitoes and ticks hate it!
