Landscaper service in Medway, MA

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

Looking for mosquito & tick spraying in Medway, 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 twenty 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. Medway 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 Medway, MA homeowners call Ten Four for Mosquito & Tick Spraying

Medway is a family-oriented town on the Charles River, north of Franklin. Its neighborhoods range from the historic homes of Medway Village along Village Street to ranch and colonial subdivisions off Route 109, Holliston Street and Winthrop Street. Lots here tend to be flatter and more open than in the ledge-heavy towns to the south, and many homeowners have real yards to work with. That makes Medway a great place for patios, lawns and plantings done right the first time.

The Charles River and Chicken Brook shape the ground in Medway. Soil near the river is sandy and drains fast, while the inland neighborhoods often sit on compacted till or old farmland with a hard layer under the topsoil. Both create lawn and drainage problems that look identical on the surface and need completely different fixes. That is why we check the soil and watch how water moves across the property before we recommend anything.

Mosquito & Tick Spraying benefits for Medway, MA properties

  • Dramatically fewer mosquitoes on the patio and in the yard
  • Far fewer ticks, which means lower risk of Lyme and other diseases
  • A yard the whole family actually uses all summer
  • Treatments targeted to habitat, not sprayed everywhere
  • Local crew, licensed applicators, one schedule

Problems we fix most often

Most people in Medway call us about mosquito & tick spraying because something has already gone wrong. Others, meanwhile, want to make sure it never does. In short, these are the issues we see most often. Every one of them is also preventable when we do the work right the first time:

  • Mosquitoes driving everyone inside by seven in the evening
  • Ticks on the kids and the dog after every trip into the yard
  • A property that backs up to woods, wetlands or stone walls
  • Store-bought foggers that work for a day
  • Worry about Lyme, anaplasmosis and EEE in this part of the state
  • Not knowing what is safe around children, pets and the vegetable garden

What’s included

  • Property inspection to find breeding and resting areas
  • Barrier treatment of wood lines, brush, walls and shady beds
  • Treatments every three to four weeks through the season
  • Early spring and late fall tick-focused applications
  • Advice on standing water, leaf litter and habitat reduction
  • Optional treatment before parties and events

Above all, every one of those items is part of the price we quote, not an upsell. When we scope mosquito & tick spraying for a Medway property, we spell out exactly what you get. So there are no surprises on the invoice, and no corners cut where you cannot see them.

How Mosquito & Tick Spraying works in Medway, MA

We keep the process simple and predictable so you always know what is happening and what comes next. Here is how a mosquito & tick spraying job runs in Medway, MA with Ten Four, from the first call to the final walkthrough. The owner is also reachable at every step.

01

Inspect the property

We find where mosquitoes rest and ticks wait: wood lines, stone walls, leaf litter, tall grass, under decks and standing water.

02

Treat the barrier

A targeted application to those areas, not a blanket spray of the whole lawn, applied by a trained crew following the label.

03

Repeat on schedule

Every three to four weeks from May into October, plus tick applications timed to the nymph and adult seasons.

04

Reduce the habitat

We point out the gutters, buckets, leaf piles and brush that breed and harbor pests so the treatments work even better.

What drives the price

Honest answer: we price mosquito & tick spraying in Medway, MA by the job rather than off a rate card. Why? Because no two properties are the same. Generally, anyone who quotes a firm price over the phone without seeing the site is guessing. That guess usually turns into a change order later. So here are a few of the things that move the price up or down:

Property size and the length of wood line and edge to treat

Number of treatments in the season

Add-on tick applications or event treatments

Bundling with a maintenance program

When to schedule Mosquito & Tick Spraying in Medway, MA

Tick treatments start as early as April when nymphs become active, and mosquito treatments run from mid-May through the first hard frost in October. Signing up before the season starts means the first treatment goes down before the population explodes. We can schedule special event treatments with a few days notice.

Signs it’s time to call

  • You cannot sit outside after dinner without the bugs eating you alive
  • Ticks are showing up on family members or pets
  • The property borders woods, wetlands, tall grass or stone walls
  • You want the yard safe for kids and pets this summer

Medway history and geography

History

Medway was first settled in 1657 and was officially incorporated in 1713. At that time, Medway began as a farming community of two hundred thirty-three. It was not long before the water power of the Charles River and Chicken Brook stimulated the formation of cotton and paper mills, straw and boot factories, and a variety of cottage industries. Medway demonstrates the central importance of the Charles River and the thriving town that grew alongside it. Today, the one-room schoolhouses are gone and the country stores have moved to the mall, but the open town meetings continue.
After nearby Medfield was established as a town in 1651, an increasing number of newcomers settled on the land west of the Charles River. By 1712, this settlement west of the Charles had grown large enough to petition the Massachusetts General Court for the creation of a separate new town. That petition was granted, and the town of Medway incorporated on October 25, 1713. At its founding by Henry Garnsey, and for 170 years afterward, the town of Medway included the land that is now Millis. Eventually, the eastern section of the town, known as East Medway, separated in 1885 to form the town of Millis, and Medway assumed the shape it has today.

Geography

According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 11.5 square miles (30 km²), of which 11.4 square miles (30 km²) is land and 0.1 square miles (0.26 km²) (0.78%) is water. Medway is the geographical center between Boston, Worcester, and Providence, which is purported by some to explain the origin of the name. However, like many New England cities and towns, it most likely derived its name from an English location, in this case, the region of Medway, England, or the River Medway. Likely both its geographical location and a nod to old England compelled the choice of town name.

Transportation

Both Route 109 and Route 126 pass through the town and serve as some of the main roads in the town. Interstate 495 shortly passes through the southwest corner of the town, but does not provide any exits. The closest exits are in nearby Bellingham and Milford.
The closest MBTA Commuter Rail service is at Forge Park/495, Franklin, and Norfolk stations on the Franklin/Foxboro Line. Until 1966, the Millis Branch served stations at Medway and West Medway.
