A Tick Control Plan Built Around Your Yard

  • We start with your property

    Your service professional assesses your yard and the areas where ticks are most likely to spend time, helping determine where treatment should be focused.

  • We target tick-friendly areas

    Treatment focuses on areas such as property lines, shrubs, ornamental plants, and overgrown vegetation where ticks may be active.

  • We focus on the spaces you use

    Decks, patios, pathways, sheds, and pet bedding may also be treated, helping address tick activity around the places you use outside.

  •  We explain what happens next

    After treatment, we recommend keeping kids and pets off treated areas for about 30 minutes while it dries.

Where Ticks Tend to Turn Up in Your Yard

In Wisconsin, ticks tend to gather where lawns meet wooded, brushy, or leafy areas. If any of this sounds like your yard, a Mosquito Joe of Madison service professional can help you figure out next steps.

  • Wooded Edges and Brush

    Yard edges near trees or brush are common tick habitat, especially where lawn meets natural areas.

  • Leaf Litter and Shaded Ground Cover

    Ticks often gather in shaded leaf litter and ground cover where conditions provide suitable habitat.

  • Tall Grass and Yard Maintenance

    Regularly mowed grass is less inviting to ticks than tall, overgrown areas of the yard.

      Great communication and the first AI assistant that works well. The job was completed 2 hours after I called to set up the yellow jacket removal. Incredible!

      Spiders, worms, ants, ticks, gnats, mosquitoes, and mice. Even showed me where I have bats and gophers. Seth was amazing with our critter concerns. Explained every step of the process. I no longer have little bugs flying in my face.

      I don't mean to be dramatic but I'm going to name my next niece or nephew Mosquito Joe. I am a mosquito magnet, and for years I've been using bug spray and repellent wristbands just to take my dog out. The day after the first Mosquito Joe treatment, the dropoff was noticeable. A couple of weeks later there are close to 0. This service has made my yard an enjoyable place to decompress. I look forward to being able to relax there for the first time this summer.

      Mosquito Joe has been servicing my property for 5 years for mosquito, pest, and insects. Seth, Tylor, and Austin are always professional and kind. They are very responsive to reschedules and always let us know when they arrive so we can close windows and let the grass dry. They have done above and beyond even coming out to do a respray if the mosquitos are bad. It is safe for my dogs and pollinator friendly it’s so nice to see bumble bees in my yard and not have mosquitos it makes working in the back yard so much better in the summer months!

      Mosquito Joe is the best! I have had them out to spray before weddings and my farm – so professional, and wonderful to work with. Recently, we have had major wasp issues. Seth came out and removed the hives and made sure my honey bees were safe. THESE GUYS ARE THE BEST!!!!

      Over the years, the north, east, and south-facing eaves and roof overhangs of my home have been popular with wasps, and several generations have built their nests high up beyond the reach of regular bug spray. The wasps themselves are a nuisance when we’re sitting out or working around the house, and their nests are an eyesore. I decided to take action this year and have the wasps killed and all of their current and former nests removed. I saw many positive reviews for Mosquito Joe and called them one morning on the way home from my golf game. The scheduler told me that they could send a Tech out the same day (shock!), and provided a quote for the job. Sure enough, within a couple of hours the Tech was at my home killing wasps and knocking down all of the nests. The “Tech” turned out to be Seth the owner of the local franchise. My wife and I were very pleased with the speed, thoroughness, and reasonable cost of the service. I highly recommend Mosquito Joe if you find yourself experiencing the wrong kind of BUZZ!

    Helpful Tick and Pest Control Resources

    FAQs About Tick Control in Madison, WI

    Since 2010, Mosquito Joe professionals have protected families like yours from nasty biters that would have you itching and scratching your way through the season. As an industry leader dedicated to environmentally sound pest control, we’re happy to use our many years of experience to answer your most frequently asked questions about tick control services in Madison, WI.

    • Ticks are typically most active in Wisconsin from May through November, although they may be active outside that window when conditions allow. Madison-area homeowners may notice more tick activity during the warmer months.

    • Common ticks in Wisconsin include the deer tick, also called the blacklegged tick, and the wood tick, also called the American dog tick. Wisconsin also has lone star ticks, although they are less common.

    • Professional tick control may be worth considering if you regularly find ticks on your property, your yard borders wooded or brushy areas, or you have shaded vegetation, leaf litter, or other tick-friendly habitat. Mosquito Joe of Madison can assess your property and recommend next steps.

    • Tick control services are highly effective at removing existing ticks on your property. But for optimum protection, we encourage you to supplement our treatments with your own tick-prevention steps. While our treatments get rid of the ticks currently on your property, your efforts can deny new invaders the shelter they seek. By coordinating our tactics, we can provide a more comprehensive property protection strategy—together.

    • Professional tick control takes proper product selection, timing, and application into account. A Mosquito Joe of Madison service professional is trained to understand the tick lifecycle and apply treatment appropriately, so you’re not left guessing about how or where to treat.

    • Professional tick control begins by identifying areas where ticks are most likely to live or travel. A Mosquito Joe of Madison service professional then applies treatment to targeted areas such as lawn edges, shrubs, shaded vegetation, leaf litter, and other tick-friendly habitat and can recommend a treatment plan based on your property and tick activity.

    • Treatment frequency can depend on tick activity, property conditions, the time of year, and your recommended service plan. Mosquito Joe of Madison can recommend a treatment schedule based on your property and service needs.

    • Tick control pricing can vary based on factors such as your property size and the level of tick activity. Mosquito Joe of Madison can provide a quote based on your property and service needs.

    • It’s not unusual to still see a few ticks shortly after treatment. Mosquito Joe treatments may take up to about a week to fully take effect. If tick activity doesn’t appear to be improving after that, contact your Mosquito Joe service professional.
