You paid for the yard. Right now you can't sit in it past six o'clock, and you're pulling ticks off the dog — or off the kids, which is the one that actually keeps parents up. We knock the population down where it breeds instead of just fogging the air. And because we keep our own bees, we do it without wiping out the pollinators working your garden.
Free Estimate — Call or Text 717-379-3248Central Pennsylvania has the perfect conditions for both mosquitoes and ticks — humid summers, plenty of standing water, and large deer populations carrying ticks into yards. The PA Department of Health reports Lyme disease cases in Dauphin, Cumberland, and Lebanon Counties every year, and West Nile virus shows up in local mosquito samples each summer. A single yard treatment knocks down adult populations. A monthly program keeps them down through the season — and the season is longer than people expect. October is consistently one of our busier mosquito months. Mosquitoes stay active until nights are reliably cold, which in Central PA is usually late October, so the people who cancel after Labor Day tend to be the ones calling back three weeks later.
We treat the resting areas where mosquitoes hide — undersides of leaves, dense shrubs, ornamental beds, shaded areas. Barrier treatments are done monthly through the season — that is the interval the residual actually holds for.
Targeted bait stations that kill mosquito larvae at every life stage, serviced every 6 weeks through the season. Uses the mosquitoes themselves to spread larvicide to nearby breeding sites. Far gentler on bees and pollinators than broad-spectrum spraying. We're trained In2Care applicators.
Fully organic, EPA-exempt essential oil barrier treatment with 30-day residual repellency. Zero synthetic insecticides. Safe for pollinators when applied as directed. As a working beekeeper, we wouldn't apply something that kills our own bees.
Targeted treatments for lawn edges, leaf litter, woodlines, and perimeter zones where ticks "quest." For properties bordering woods or fields, we add perimeter treatments where deer and rodents enter the yard.
Live predatory nematodes applied to leaf litter, woodline edges, and shaded ground where ticks and fleas hide — they parasitize the larval and nymph stages directly in the soil. Zero synthetic insecticide. Pollinator-safe, pet-safe, kid-safe. Works as a layered addition to barrier treatments for homeowners who want to reduce reliance on adult-tick sprays, or as the tick component of a fully organic yard program.

We walk your property for standing water at ground level — tarps, kiddie pools, bird baths, plant saucers, buckets, old tires, low spots — and treat or recommend changes for each one. We don't get up on the roof or inspect gutters; if we think gutters are the source, we'll tell you so you can have them cleared.
Outdoor wedding, graduation, family reunion? We do single-application treatments timed 24–48 hours before your event for maximum effect. Call early — weekend slots fill up fast in summer.
