Mosquito & Tick Control
Protect your family and reclaim your yard.
Craig’s Landscaping offers seasonal mosquito and tick control programs for homeowners across the Boston suburbs.
Organic Applications
Our standard program uses natural spray treatments — effective without harsh chemicals, and safer for pets and kids.
Seasonal Program
Regular applications from spring through fall keep pressure down all season long.
Targets Ticks & Mosquitoes
One program addresses both — the two biggest outdoor pest threats in eastern Massachusetts.
Lyme's Disease Is A Real Risk
Tick pressure in the Boston suburbs has increased significantly over the past decade. Arlington, Lexington, and Winchester are all in established deer tick habitat — the same ticks that carry Lyme disease, anaplasmosis, and babesiosis. If you have a lawn that borders wooded areas, brush, or even mature plantings, you have a tick risk. That’s just the reality of where we live.
Mosquitoes in eastern Massachusetts are more than an annoyance —risks like West Nile virus are documented in Middlesex County, and the season has lengthened as temperatures have shifted. The warm shoulder seasons have extended the window when mosquitoes are active.
Craig’s Landscaping offers a seasonal spray program using organic treatments that target both ticks and mosquitoes across your lawn, beds, and property perimeter. We typically run four applications from April through November — spaced to maintain consistent knockdown pressure through the full active season.
What Gets Treated
- Lawn areas — especially shaded and moist areas where ticks concentrate
- Planting beds and garden borders
- Perimeter areas — around sheds, wood piles, fence lines, and woodland edges
- Shrub bases and understory where ticks harbor between hosts
Organic Mosquito & Tick Treatments — What That Means
Craig’s Landscaping takes pride in using natural pest control that is safer for use around children, pets, and lawns. Our equipment is never contaminated by synthetic pesticides, and you can use your yard immediately after our treatments dry.
