Insect Prevention Services

Northern Virginia summers are beautiful, but they can also welcome uninvited guests like mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas. These pests can quickly turn your backyard into a place you'd rather avoid, and in our area, tick prevention is particularly important as ticks carry real health risks for your family and pets. Grubs, which feed on grass roots just below the surface, can cause brown patches in your lawn before you even realize the damage is done. Additionally, tiny but destructive mites feed on grass blades, resulting in a dry, silvery, or scorched appearance, often confused with drought stress or disease.

What we treat:

- **Mosquito Treatment** — We offer targeted applications to resting areas like shrubs, ground cover, and shaded spots where mosquitoes hide during the day.

- **Tick Prevention** — Our treatments focus on lawn edges, wooded borders, and leaf litter where ticks are most active, keeping your family safe.

- **Flea Control** — We provide coverage for areas of your yard where pets spend time, effectively reducing flea populations before they become a household problem.

- **Gnats** — Our targeted treatments address gnat activity in your lawn and landscaping, preventing these persistent pests from becoming a nuisance around your home and outdoor spaces.

- **Grubs** — Our season-long grub control can be added to your existing program, including a single preventive application that protects your lawn all season long.

- **Mites** — We also offer mite control treatments as an add-on to your lawn program, aiming to target infestations before they can cause lasting damage.

Treatments are timed seasonally for maximum effectiveness and applied by the experienced LawnMate crew assigned to your lawn.
