We spray your property like any other pesticide application, its just that ours is all-natural.

Spraying TickCtrl all-natural garlic-based solutions is an effective and environmentally friendly approach to control ticks and mosquitoes, thereby mitigating the risk of vector-borne illnesses.

Our compound solution of all-natural garlic contains only natural compounds, such as allicin, which have insecticidal properties and act as a repellent against ticks and mosquitoes. 

When garlic-based solutions are sprayed in outdoor environments, they create a deterrent effect on these vectors. Ticks and mosquitoes are sensitive to the odor of garlic, and the spray disrupts their sensory mechanisms, discouraging them from landing on treated surfaces or biting. This can significantly reduce the likelihood of human exposure to infected ticks and mosquitoes, consequently lowering the transmission risk of diseases like Lyme disease and West Nile virus.

One advantage of using all-natural TickCtrl spray is its minimal impact on the environment and non-target species. Unlike synthetic chemical pesticides, garlic-based solutions are biodegradable and doesn’t pose risks to beneficial insects, birds, and aquatic ecosystems. This aligns with the principles of integrated pest management, promoting sustainable and ecologically sound approaches to vector control. 

Additionally, garlic has been recognized for its anti-microbial properties. TickCtrl can contribute to a healthier environment. By reducing the abundance of ticks and mosquitoes, the overall disease pressure in a given area may be diminished.

1. What does it cost?

You call us and we’ll give you a quote. Usually we can do this over the phone but if need be we’ll happily come to your property – there is no obligation. Pricing is determined by the size of the property and the length of time that it takes to spray (working around complicated landscaping, for example).

2. How often should I spray?

Do you want to keep your place tick and mosquito safe for the whole season or do you just need us for a special occasion?

We do both.

Our program works best when we spray regularly to ensure it remains as free of ticks and mosquitos as possible. However, we appreciate you may have a special occasions — bbq’s, garden parties, weddings, baseball games, corporate events, etc.

Trust us – you will notice a dramatic difference and you’ll want us to come back soon. 

Get a package for a season and we will watch the weather and other factors and show up to spray as needed. For example, if there’s a heavy rain-fall we’ll be there shortly.

Usually a season means six (6) sprays (in fact, we guarantee that as a minimum and it will never be more than six (6) weeks between sprays).

If you notice that mosquitos and ticks are back, just call us and we’ll be there – 100% satisfaction guaranteed. Cancel your seasonal package at any time if you don’t notice a material reduction in ticks and mosquitos.

3. What type of properties can you service?

No property is too small or too big. We service residential, commercial and municipal and educational properties. Most importantly – we focus in on the areas of the property where ticks and mosquitos are most likely to be found and reproduce.

4.  How long does the TickCtrl solution last once applied?

A single spray (provided it is allowed to fully dry which takes 30-45 minutes) should last at least six (6) weeks. However, it may last less. This depends on weather, amount of rainfall, and general prevalence of vector-borne carriers that season. Trust us to stay on top of it. This is our community too.

You don’t need to be home for us to spray and we’ll leave a notice letting you know that we’ve been there. 

5. Will my property smell like garlic?

Yes. It It will smell like your favourite restaurant for at least about 12 hours (but probably less). But, the smell quickly dissipates. Nobody we work with really seems to mind. We think this is a small impact for using all-natural products. 

That being said, we can’t guarantee that it won’t cause you to make a fixin’ of your favourite garlic bread of your pasta.
