What this covers
A mosquito and tick request starts with how the yard is used and where the pests are worst: the patio in the evening, the play area, the path along the woods. Mosquitoes rest on the underside of leaves in shade; ticks wait in leaf litter and tall grass along edges. Visits focus on those zones rather than blanketing the whole yard.
Standing water matters as much as treatment. A useful visit points out clogged gutters, saucers, toys and low spots that hold water for days. Ask which products are used near vegetable gardens, water features and pollinator plants, and how long to stay out of treated areas.
Scope
