Landscaper service in Foxboro, MA

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

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

Foxboro is best known for Gillette Stadium and Patriot Place on Route 1, but the town we work in most days is residential. Think colonials and capes on wooded lots around the historic common, neighborhoods off Mechanic Street, Chestnut Street and North Street, and larger rural parcels near F. Gilbert Hills State Forest. We also maintain commercial properties along the Route 1 and Route 140 corridors, where a clean, safe frontage is part of doing business.

Foxboro sits on some of the rockiest ground in Norfolk County. Granite ledge and boulders are close to the surface across much of the town, which changes how we excavate for patios, walls and drainage. Thin soil over rock also dries out fast in midsummer. The low areas near the Neponset Reservoir, Lake Mirimichi and the Cocasset River stay wet. So grading and drainage are usually part of the conversation on any Foxboro property.

Mosquito & Tick Spraying benefits for Foxboro, 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 Foxboro 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 Foxboro 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 Foxboro, 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 Foxboro, 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 Foxboro, 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 Foxboro, 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
