We use an all-natural product powered by essential oils. This 100% organic spray is safe to use around children, pets and wildlife and goes to work quickly.
It has been proven to kill mosquitoes and ticks in as little as 4 hours! This natural blend will knock down the existing population and act as a repellant to
deter new mosquitoes and ticks from entering your yard. Our experienced technicians administer our product using a fine mist spray to the perimeter of your
property as well as all the areas in your yard where ticks live and breed aka their habitats.
Although this option doesn't offer quite the same results
as our synthetic spray, we do endorse its effectiveness and guarantee your satisfaction. Depending on your own yard and family needs, it may be the right solution for you.
You can then rest easy knowing your family is protected by the best Natural mosquito and tick product on the market!
Our Synthetic option is a pyrethroid. A pyrethroid is a man-made compound derived from the head of the Chrysantemum flower. Pyrethroids are used in
numerous commercial products which are used to control insects. A few of these products include household insecticides, pet shampoos, sprays,
and even some lice shampoos which are applied directly to the scalp. A Risk vs. Benefit analysis saw the advantage of treating with a pyrethroid
product dramatically outweighing the risk associated with non-treatment.
Our experienced technicians administer our product using a fine mist spray to the perimeter of your property as well as all the areas in your yard
where ticks live and breed aka their habitats. Existing mosquitoes and ticks are killed by the spray immediately and the remaining residue on plant
foliage will continue to provide protection when they come into contact with the sprayed leaves.
Our organic tick and mosquito spray is made of up essential oils and does work differently than our traditional barrier spray. While it eliminates
adult mosquitoes on contact, the organic spray acts as a repellant which deters ticks and mosquitoes from entering your property. Our traditional spray
kills on contact, eliminating the pest and continues to kill ticks and mosquitoes that come in contact with the residual product.
The organic tick and mosquito spray also kills on contact and creates a repellant barrier.
When first applied to the property, there is a slight botanical fragrance to the all-natural spray. To a human's sense of smell, the odor
dissipates within a few hours of application, however, ticks and mosquitoes are much more sensitive to smell. The fragrance keeps them away.
While no tick and mosquito control company can promise to eliminate all mosquitoes from your property, Backyard Bug Busters's organic spray does cut down
on your tick and mosquito population significantly. We tell our clients to expect a 65-90% decrease in the number of ticks and mosquitoes on your property after
the 1st spray has been applied.
Food Grade Cedar Oil is a great option for repelling mosquitoes. You will get all the benefits of
cedar mulch without the unattractive side effects. The natural aroma of Food Grade Cedar Oil and peppermint is
pleasing to people but objectionable to mosquitoes and other pests. An added benefit is that if mosquitoes
come into contact with the Food Grade Cedar Oil and peppermint, it can kill them, their eggs, and their larvae.
Cedar oil also helps to prevent the next generation of mosquitoes by dissolving their eggs, larvae, and pupae.
The oil only needs to come into contact with the pests for it to be effective, the bugs do not have to
ingest it. It's also not just effective for mosquitoes, but for ticks and many other insects.
