Pests or Pesticides? Choose Neither.

Filling your yard with toxins just trades one problem for another. And you’re smart to worry. Due to their smaller size, children and pets are especially vulnerable to the harmful physical and neurological effects of synthetic pesticides. Not to mention, they’re outside much more than adults, which leads to increased exposure. Your family deserves better — and so does the planet.

Proven Effectiveness Without Compromise

Skeptical about natural pest control? You’re not alone — but you don’t have to choose between safety and results. Our tick control, mosquito spray, and deer repellent services are backed by scientific research and have consistently proven effective in real-world conditions across Nashoba Valley, including Harvard, Acton, and Clinton. 

We’ve helped countless homeowners dramatically reduce pest activity without relying on harsh synthetic chemicals or putting their families and pets at risk. And if you’re ever unsatisfied, our re-spray guarantee ensures we’ll make it right — no questions asked.

Now, maybe you’re
wondering HOW it works.

Our eco-friendly pest control treatments are powered by bioactive compounds — naturally occurring ingredients that have a targeted effect on insects and wildlife. Think of them like nature’s own defense system: ingredients such as lemongrass oil and geraniol interfere with the way ticks and mosquitoes sense their surroundings, making your yard an unappealing place to land or feed. 

For deer, strong scents like garlic and peppermint act as natural deterrents. This plant-based strategy allows us to deliver safe, effective pest control without compromising environmental health — a smarter solution for Nashoba Valley families.

What’s in Our Products?

We take pride in using ingredients you can recognize and trust.
Here’s exactly what goes into each treatment and why it works.
TICK & MOSQUITO CONTROL
LEMONGRASS OIL:
Naturally rich in citronella, lemongrass oil masks the body odors that ticks and mosquitoes use to locate humans and animals. It disrupts their ability to hone in on their next meal — all while leaving behind a clean, citrusy scent that humans love.
GERANIOL:
This powerful essential oil is derived from geraniums and citronella plants. It’s a natural repellent that confuses a pest’s sense of smell, making it harder for them to find a host. Geraniol is highly effective against ticks, mosquitoes, and even some flies.
CASTOR OIL:
Known for its thick consistency and pungent aroma, castor oil acts as both a repellent and a texture deterrent. Many insects — including ticks — avoid surfaces treated with castor oil due to its slickness and smell.
SODIUM LAURYL SULFATE:
Commonly found in personal care products like shampoo and toothpaste, SLS helps our oils blend properly with water. It ensures the active ingredients are evenly dispersed over your lawn, shrubs, and trees for maximum protection.
CORN OIL:
This mild carrier oil helps dilute and stabilize the active ingredients in our spray, allowing them to adhere better to outdoor surfaces like grass and leaves. It plays a key role in making our tick and mosquito control long-lasting and weather-resistant.
DEER REPELLANT
EGG SOLIDS:
These are made from dried eggs that aren’t fit for human consumption — and deer can’t stand them. The smell and taste deter deer from grazing on treated plants, flowers, and trees, without causing harm to wildlife or pollinators.
GARLIC:
With its strong, sulfur-rich aroma, garlic has been used as a natural animal deterrent for centuries. In our formula, it helps create an invisible scent barrier that deer instinctively avoid.
WHITE PEPPER:
White pepper irritates a deer’s nasal passages and taste receptors, discouraging them from chewing on treated foliage. It’s safe for humans and pets, but unpleasant enough to convince deer to dine elsewhere.
PIPERITA PEPPERMINT OIL:
This fresh-smelling essential oil is a favorite in natural pest control. While it smells refreshing to us, peppermint oil is offensive to deer — making it a safe and effective way to discourage them from coming too close to your yard or garden.
SODIUM LAURYL SULFATE:
As with our insect sprays, SLS in our deer repellent helps disperse the ingredients evenly across surfaces, improving coverage on leaves, bark, and stems where deer are most likely to feed.
POTASSIUM SORBATE:
This food-safe preservative ensures the product remains effective over time without requiring harsh chemical stabilizers. It’s widely used in organic food and skincare products, and it helps maintain the shelf life of our deer repellent spray.
