Our Approach
Our Approach
Tick Shield was developed in 2001 in conjunction with our innovative Mosquito Shield product.
We treat our Tick Shield customers 3-4 times each season with our proprietary Tick Shield product, a blend that both kills and repels ticks. Our unique product and application methods help create a barrier around your property that keeps ticks out.
