Outdoor pest pressure in Shunk is seasonal but predictable: mosquitoes track standing water and humidity, ticks track brush and tall grass. a humid continental climate with hot, humid summers and cold winters, moderated slightly by the region's lower elevation valleys determines how long that season runs.
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.
