Mosquito & Tick Spraying Plainville, MA

You should not have to choose between the back yard and Lyme disease

Looking for mosquito & tick spraying in Plainville, MA? Ten Four Landscape & Construction has handled it for homeowners, business owners and property managers across Norfolk County since 2012. Our Wrentham yard is also about fifteen minutes away.

Mosquito and tick spraying is a health service as much as a comfort one. Norfolk County has some of the highest tick-borne disease rates in the state, and mosquitoes make a summer evening on the patio miserable. Most properties here back up to exactly the woods, stone walls and wetlands where both thrive. Plainville homeowners have relied on us as their local landscaper for years. So we bring that same approach to every mosquito & tick spraying job in town.

We apply a barrier treatment to the places that matter: the wood line, brush, tall grass edges, stone walls and under decks. The treatment also covers the foundation plantings and the shady, damp spots mosquitoes rest in during the day. We time treatments every three to four weeks from late spring through the first frost. You can also add an early-season and late-fall tick treatment to catch the nymphs and adults when they are most active.

Why Plainville, MA homeowners call Ten Four for Mosquito & Tick Spraying

Plainville sits just south of our Wrentham yard along Route 1, so it is one of the shortest drives we make. The town is a mix of established neighborhoods off South Street and Messenger Street, newer developments toward the North Attleboro line, and homes around Turnpike Lake and Lake Mirimichi. There is also busy commercial frontage on Route 1 and Route 152 near Plainridge Park. Many of our Plainville customers are homeowners who want one reliable crew for the whole property instead of three different vendors.

Plainville soils run sandier and better-drained than the ledge-heavy ground to the north, especially along the Ten Mile River and the wetlands on the west side of town. But sandy soil brings its own problems. Lawns burn out in August, fertilizer leaches away before the grass can use it, and plantings need real soil amendment to establish. We also see plenty of stone and hardpan in the older neighborhoods, so we never assume what is under the surface until we dig.

• Dramatically fewer mosquitoes on the patio and in the yard
• Far fewer ticks, which means lower risk of Lyme and other diseases
