Mosquitoes need standing water to breed, and ticks need tall grass, leaf litter, or brush to ambush a host — both of which are common features of Boonton properties. a climate shaped by the region's proximity to the coast and the New York City urban heat island, with genuine seasonal extremes extends the active season for both considerably.
Our approach starts with identifying every standing-water source and brush or tall-grass area on the property, since those are where mosquitoes breed and ticks wait for a host. We treat vegetation and resting areas with a barrier spray and apply larvicide to any water that can't be drained, repeating on a seasonal schedule for ongoing control.
