Picture this: evening barbecues without constant swatting. Kids playing outside until dark without coming in covered in welts. Garden work that doesn’t require a hazmat suit of bug spray.
That’s what happens when you get serious about mosquito control. You stop planning your life around when mosquitoes are active. Your deck becomes usable again. Your yard turns back into the space you actually want to spend time in.
The difference isn’t just comfort—it’s safety. West Nile Virus has been detected in Michigan every summer since 2002, and Oakland County sees its share of cases each year. Professional mosquito control doesn’t just reduce nuisance biting; it reduces your family’s exposure to real health risks.
We’ve been protecting Village of Clarkston families since 2005. Roger brings 26 years of pest control experience to every job, and we’ve built our reputation on keeping the same technician with our customers year after year—no rotating college students.
We know Clarkston’s unique challenges. The wooded neighborhoods and proximity to lakes create perfect mosquito breeding conditions. Historic properties from the village’s 1884 founding require careful, knowledgeable treatment. We’ve seen it all, and we know what works in this specific area.
Our Integrated Pest Management training and awards from Angie’s List and Home Advisor reflect our commitment to doing this work right. When you’re dealing with disease-carrying pests, experience matters.
First, we inspect your property to identify breeding sites and resting areas. Mosquitoes need standing water to reproduce, and they hide in vegetation during the day. We find these spots and map out a treatment plan specific to your property.
Next comes the barrier treatment. We apply a targeted spray to vegetation, under decks, around water features, and other areas where mosquitoes rest and breed. This creates a protective barrier that kills existing mosquitoes and prevents new ones from establishing.
We also include flea and tick treatment in our mosquito program at no extra charge. Why? Because these pests often share the same habitats, and treating them together gives you comprehensive protection for your outdoor spaces. Follow-up treatments maintain the barrier throughout mosquito season, keeping your property protected when you need it most.

Our mosquito control service covers your entire property with a comprehensive barrier treatment. We target the vegetation, landscaping, and structures where mosquitoes rest during the day and breed at night. The treatment creates a protective zone that eliminates existing mosquitoes and prevents new infestations.
In Village of Clarkston, we pay special attention to the wooded areas and water features that make this area beautiful but also create ideal mosquito habitat. Historic properties get careful treatment that protects both the structure and the people living there.
You also get our flea and tick treatment included at no extra cost. These pests thrive in the same environments as mosquitoes, especially in Clarkston’s tree-lined neighborhoods. One service protects you from multiple biting pests throughout the season.
We offer price matching for reasonable competitors’ rates, plus discounts for seniors, veterans, and first responders. Because we believe everyone in our community deserves to enjoy their outdoor space safely.
Professional mosquito control significantly reduces your exposure to West Nile Virus by eliminating the mosquitoes that carry it. West Nile has been active in Michigan every summer since 2002, and Oakland County regularly sees cases each year.
Our barrier treatment targets the specific mosquito species that transmit West Nile Virus. By eliminating breeding sites and killing adult mosquitoes in their resting areas, we break the disease transmission cycle on your property. While we can’t eliminate every mosquito in the broader area, we can create a protective zone around your home where mosquito populations are dramatically reduced.
The treatment is most effective when applied consistently throughout mosquito season, which typically runs from late spring through early fall in Michigan. This timing aligns with peak West Nile Virus transmission periods.
Start mosquito control treatments in early spring, before mosquito populations explode. In Village of Clarkston, this typically means beginning treatments in April or May, depending on weather conditions.
Early treatment is crucial because it targets mosquitoes when populations are still manageable. Once summer arrives and breeding accelerates, you’re playing catch-up instead of staying ahead of the problem. Michigan mosquitoes can emerge earlier than expected if we have a warm spring, so timing matters.
We recommend continuing treatments through September, as mosquito activity and West Nile Virus risk remain high through early fall. The peak danger period runs from late July through September, but mosquitoes can remain active well into October in mild years.
Yes, when applied by trained professionals using Integrated Pest Management principles. Our technicians are certified in IPM, which emphasizes using the minimum effective treatment to achieve maximum results while protecting human health and the environment.
We use targeted application methods that focus treatment on areas where mosquitoes rest and breed, not broad-spectrum spraying of entire properties. This approach minimizes exposure while maximizing effectiveness. The products we use break down naturally in the environment and don’t accumulate in soil or water.
After treatment, we recommend keeping children and pets inside for the specified time period (usually 2-4 hours) while the application dries. Once dry, treated areas are safe for normal use. We provide specific instructions for each treatment and answer any questions about safety precautions for your particular situation.
Most properties need mosquito control treatments every 3-4 weeks during active mosquito season. The exact frequency depends on your property’s specific conditions, mosquito pressure in your area, and weather patterns.
Properties with extensive vegetation, water features, or heavy tree cover may need more frequent treatment because these conditions support larger mosquito populations. After heavy rains, mosquito breeding accelerates, sometimes requiring additional treatments to maintain protection.
We customize treatment schedules based on your property’s needs and your family’s outdoor activity patterns. Some customers prefer more frequent treatments during peak outdoor entertaining months, while others maintain consistent monthly treatments throughout the season. We work with you to develop a schedule that provides the protection you need within your budget.
We keep the same technician with your account year after year, so you’re not dealing with rotating college students who don’t know your property. Roger’s 26 years of experience means we understand Village of Clarkston’s specific mosquito challenges and how to address them effectively.
We include flea and tick treatment in our mosquito program at no extra charge. Most companies charge separately for these services, but we know these pests often share the same habitats. One comprehensive treatment protects your family from multiple disease-carrying pests.
We also offer unique services like canine bed bug detection—we’re one of under 100 companies in the U.S. with this capability. This expertise reflects our commitment to staying at the forefront of pest control technology and training. Plus, we match reasonable competitors’ rates and offer discounts for seniors, veterans, and first responders.
Yes, we stand behind our mosquito control treatments. If you’re not satisfied with the results, we’ll return to re-treat problem areas at no additional cost. Our goal is to give you the outdoor enjoyment you’re paying for.
However, mosquito control isn’t about eliminating every single mosquito—that’s impossible. It’s about reducing populations to levels where you can comfortably use your outdoor spaces. Most customers see a dramatic reduction in mosquito activity within 24-48 hours of treatment.
Weather conditions, neighboring properties, and new breeding sites can affect results. We work with you to address these variables and maintain effective protection throughout the season. Our 20 years of local experience helps us anticipate and solve problems before they impact your comfort and safety.
