Cary's Trusted Mosquito and Tick Control Provider
Cary's suburban landscape is threaded with water features and wooded corridors that sustain mosquito and tick populations. Crabtree Creek and Walnut Creek both originate in Cary before flowing east into Raleigh, and the town's greenway system runs along these wooded stream corridors and floodplain areas. Bond Lake and Lake Crabtree add standing water, and over 30 parks and natural areas provide shaded, leaf-covered habitat where ticks thrive. Mosquito Mike provides professional mosquito and tick control throughout Cary, including neighborhoods near Bond Park, the White Oak Creek corridor, and newer developments on the western side of town. Our barrier spray can reduce mosquito populations by up to 90%, and our tick treatments target shaded borders and wooded edges where ticks encounter your family and pets. We're fully licensed in North Carolina (Pesticide License [PENDING FROM CLIENT]) and every technician holds a Core Applicator License.

Mosquito Control
Cary sits at the headwaters of two major creek systems, and the lakes and stream corridors running through town hold moisture that fuels mosquito breeding from April through October. North Carolina is home to roughly 60 species of mosquitoes, and it doesn't take much to sustain them.
A kiddie pool left out after the weekend, a wheelbarrow that caught last night's rain, or a forgotten bucket in the yard can produce mature adults in just a few weeks. Asian Tiger Mosquitoes are active during the day and night, so there's no safe hour without protection. Our barrier spray program targets resting and breeding areas across your property to keep mosquito activity down all season.
Tick Control
With over 80 miles of greenway cutting through wooded stream corridors, tick habitat in Cary is never far from your backyard. North Carolina has four common tick species, each carrying different risks.
Blacklegged ticks transmit Lyme disease. Lone Star Ticks spread bacteria that cause Ehrlichiosis and are linked to alpha-gal syndrome, a condition that can trigger a red meat allergy. American Dog Ticks are the primary vector of Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever in the Piedmont. Even the Brown Dog Tick, which feeds mainly on dogs, is active year-round across the state. Ticks quest by climbing to the edges of grass blades and leaf litter, waiting for a host to walk past. Our treatments target those contact zones directly.
Winter Tick Defense
Ticks don't follow the same calendar as mosquitoes. While mosquito season wraps up in October, blacklegged tick adults are just getting started. They stay active through late fall, winter, and early spring any time temperatures rise above freezing. In a Cary winter, that happens more often than most people realize.
The leaf litter along greenway trails, stream banks, and wooded yard edges gives ticks the insulation they need to survive cold stretches. Left untreated, these populations build quietly for months and are ready to surge when warm weather returns. Our winter tick defense program targets tick habitat during this overlooked season so your property starts spring with fewer ticks already in place.
