Maury County — Mosquito & Tick Control
Professional mosquito, flea & tick yard treatment for Mount Pleasant homeowners, delivered by Middle Tennessee's only UT Certified lawn treatment specialists.
Your yard along Cedar Street or out near the historic Rattle and Snap should be a place to relax. But here in Mount Pleasant, our dense humidity and shaded landscapes around homes on Church Street or in the older neighborhoods off Highway 43 create a perfect harbor for mosquitoes and the ticks that hitch a ride on deer. You end up having to choose between enjoying your own property or dealing with the bites.
The problem isn't your lawn. Mosquitoes can't handle the midday sun, so they hide in the only place they can, which is the shaded underside of leaves in your shrubs, trees, and flower beds. Ticks, meanwhile, get dropped right into those same ornamental plantings by deer, which love to browse on plants like arborvitae. That means your frequently-mowed fescue isn't the issue; the landscaped areas where you and your family actually spend time are. My treatment focuses exactly there.
I refused to offer this service until I found a formula that worked without harming pollinators or requiring dangerous PPE. I mix it myself using labeled active ingredients like cedar oil, garlic oil, peppermint oil, and a specific soap. Because it's bee-safe, I can legally and ethically spray flowering plants to get complete coverage of mosquito hiding spots. This is critical around your foundation plantings and gardens, where complete coverage equals real results.
I use an Echo backpack mist blower, not a typical sprayer. The outlet points upward so I can hold it low and aim the mist up into your shrubs and trees, coating the underside of the leaves where mosquitoes are actually resting during the day. This low-volume method uses the wind as a carrier and treats mosquito and tick habitat simultaneously, up to about 15-20 feet high. It’s a targeted approach that respects your entire yard ecosystem.
The first thing I do for a new customer in Mount Pleasant is a full walk-through to identify every source of standing water, from birdbaths to clogged gutters to low spots in the yard. That’s where mosquitoes breed. For permanent water features or spots that can’t be eliminated, I use bacteria tablets (mosquito dunks) that are safe for everything except mosquito larvae. This combined approach, treating the adult hiding places and the larval breeding sites, is what makes the service effective for properties large and small throughout Maury County.
The I-65 corridor's abundant rainfall, warm temperatures, and lush vegetation create perfect habitat for mosquitoes, fleas, and ticks. Standing water in Middle Tennessee's clay soils provides breeding sites for mosquitoes, while the region's deer population supports high tick numbers. Properties near creeks, wooded areas, or with dense landscaping are particularly vulnerable.

No, my custom mix is specifically designed to be bee-safe. I use botanical oils like cedar and garlic, which allows me to legally treat flowering plants without harming pollinators. If you have an active pollinator garden, I simply adjust the formula slightly out of extreme caution.
Absolutely. Deer are the primary vector bringing ticks into your yard, and they drop them where they stop to feed on your landscape plants. Since I treat those exact same shaded shrub and tree areas to control mosquitoes, I automatically treat the tick habitat at the same time.
For effective control during our peak season, I recommend treatments every 3-4 weeks from late spring through early fall. The intense humidity from June through August creates ideal breeding conditions, so consistent coverage is key to breaking the cycle.
No, and you shouldn't want me to. Mosquitoes aren't in the sunny lawn during the day, and ticks can't survive in frequently-mowed grass. My treatment is focused solely on your landscaped beds, shrubs, and tree canopies, where these pests actually live and breed on your property.
