Mosquito Hunters™ is best known within Alpharetta for fighting mosquito infestations. But these buzzing, biting insects aren’t the only pest we’re equipped against. We also offer tick prevention treatments throughout our service area. With our help, you can protect your family and pets against these parasitic arachnids.
While not nearly as widespread or annoying as mosquitoes, ticks represent a real threat to Alpharetta area families. As carriers of illnesses like Lyme disease, ehrlichiosis, and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, these eight-legged bloodsuckers pose a risk to the health of you and your family. By preventing ticks on your property in Alpharetta, you’ll keep your family protected against tick-borne illnesses.
Our tick treatments use a product that’s lethal to ticks but non-irritating to people and pets. What’s more, this product is also used in our mosquito control services, making it easy to combine one service with the other.
As with our mosquito treatments, we include our Client Happiness Promise with all our tick prevention treatments. This promise covers 21 days following your treatment. If you’re unhappy with our results during that time, simply let us know. We’ll redo the treatment at no additional charge, with no questions asked.
Wondering what makes our tick prevention treatments work? The secret lies in the active ingredient used in our treatment product: pyrethroids.
Pyrethroids are derived from the chrysanthemum flower, which is known as one of nature’s most potent pest fighters. While lethal to ticks and mosquitoes, pyrethroids are non-irritating to people and pets. In fact, you’ll find this ingredient in a number of household products, such as anti-lice shampoos.
To prevent ticks on your property, we apply what’s known as a barrier treatment. This involves applying our treatment product to the vegetation at the perimeter of your property. After the product dries, it will remain active for three weeks. During this time, ticks that try to enter your property will need to pass through this barrier. When they come into contact with the treatment product—even briefly—they will be quickly neutralized.
By applying a new barrier treatment every three weeks, we can prevent tick activity on your property throughout the warmer months.
Tick prevention services from Mosquito Hunters are available to families throughout Alpharetta, Milton, Johns Creek, and Roswell. In addition to homeowners, we also offer these treatments to local businesses (such as golf courses) and public properties (such as parks).

Just let us know if you are not happy with a treatment within 21 days post-treatment and we will re-treat your yard free of charge. For any reason. Period.
