Enjoy a Bug-Free Summer

Summer is the best time for bonfires, barbeques, and enjoying time in your yard. Perfect weather days invite you outside to soak in the sun, but that perfect day can quickly turn sour if annoying bugs drive you back inside.

These get-togethers can quickly turn south when creepy and annoying bugs like the American cockroach and other large bugs that buzz around our heads and make us run inside to escape them. Insects such as mosquitoes, flies, gnats, fleas, ticks, and chiggers can also make us irritable. Not only are their bites and stings annoying and frustrating, but also the disease transmission and allergies that can happen as a result are concerning.

Personal protection measures such as wearing long pants and sleeves as well as using insect repellents are helpful in the moment. However, successful control of these pests requires not only proper identification but also proactive planning, knowledge of pest biology as well as expertise in pest control options. Knowing both what to use and when to apply it is key. These actions combined will help to make your time outside more enjoyable and your backyard festivities a success.

Bug Control in the Summer Months

At Tri-County Pest Control, we design pest control plans to make your outdoor space enjoyable and bug-free. We offer personalized maintenance plans or single visit services that keep your yard bug free all summer long by focusing on stinging and crawling insects that can quickly turn a party into misery. In addition to treating your yard, we also treat your foundation, siding, window, and door frames, as well as the eaves to prevent pest entry into your home.

Have a special event planned in the near future? We can come in several days before the event to treat the area, ensuring your guests will not only relish in the festivities but also be comfortable and feeling pleasant during your event.

Pet Protection in the Summer Pests

Mosquitos and ticks don’t just annoy people, they can be irritating to our four-legged family members. These pests can transfer deadly diseases to our beloved pets. Mosquitoes can transmit heartworms to dogs, which can lead to a slow, painful death. Likewise, tick bites bring the risk of Lyme disease. In addition to using flea and tick preventatives monthly, utilizing a tailored treatment plan for your yard can help you avoid costly treatments for your pets. Ask your veterinarian to help you choose the best products for your pets.

Hear from a few people we have worked with...

“Bill and I started using TriCounty Pest Control for our home soon after we moved from Minnesota to Tupelo in 2001, and we have been extremely happy with the service we have received from Kevin Pannell. He has made extra trips to our home several times to deal with a particularly stubborn pest. We found out we had a nest of ants in our attic that happily stayed there, out of our notice, until we had our kitchen remodeled. Then they had a new pathway via the electrical cord for our stove.
