Tick & Mosquito Control in Lenox, MA
Tanglewood country — big wooded properties and a full outdoor-event season.
Lenox’s Tick & Mosquito Control Team
Lenox spends its summer outdoors. Tanglewood runs all season, Kennedy Park and the surrounding conservation land put woods right up against town, and a large share of the town’s properties are wooded lots with long edges rather than open suburban lawns.
That makes Lenox the town where both halves of this business get used: season-long tick and mosquito programs for the properties, and one-time Special Event Sprays for the weddings, receptions and garden parties that fill the calendar from June onward.
What Lenox Yards Are Up Against
Wooded lots with long edges
Properties around Lenox and the Kennedy Park side of town tend to be large and wooded, which means far more lawn-to-woods edge per acre than a compact village lot. That edge, with its leaf litter and stone walls, is tick habitat, and it is the part of the property the April whole-lawn application and the five-step barrier are aimed at.
Shade, foliage and a long rest period
The same mature canopy that makes Lenox properties attractive gives mosquitoes an unusually good place to sit out the day. Treatment goes onto the undersides of dense shrubby plantings, under decks and into damp shaded beds — where they actually are — rather than across open grass.
Getting the Timing Right in Lenox
Events: three to four days before
A Special Event Spray is applied 3 to 4 days prior to the gathering, which leaves the last days free for the rest of the event prep. For weddings and large outdoor parties we spray the grass as well as the perimeters — a wider treatment than a standard mosquito visit.
Season programs run May to October
For properties rather than one-off events, mosquito coverage begins in the first two weeks of May and runs through the first two weeks of October, with tick service starting earlier, in mid to late April.
What Customers Near Lenox Say
The dog finally stopped coming inside without ticks on him. Thank you!
I was able to enjoy using my hot tub at night without the annoying buzz of mosquitoes all summer long.
This is the first year in the 32 years of living here I haven’t had a tick on me while working in my gardens.
