Expert Tick, Flea & Mosquito Control
Mosquitoes, fleas, and ticks are more than a nuisance—they're a serious health threat. The NPMA recently designated ticks as the top seasonal threat following a 5-year high in tick-related medical visits, and New Jersey consistently ranks among the top 10 most infested states.
Yard Guard Process
Ozane's Yard Guard Program provides season-long protection against mosquitoes, fleas, and ticks, helping families enjoy their yards with greater comfort and confidence. Service begins with a detailed property inspection to locate the areas where these pests are most likely to rest, breed, and travel, including shaded shrubs, leaf litter, ornamental plants, and dense landscaping.
Ozane's Master Technicians then apply targeted treatments to these high-activity areas rather than simply spraying the lawn. Monthly applications from April through September help reduce pest populations throughout their life cycles and maintain consistent protection during the months when outdoor activity is highest.
Pro Tip: Homeowners can support the treatment by removing standing water, trimming overgrown vegetation, and keeping landscaping well maintained. Starting service before activity peaks can help reduce exposure and provide stronger protection throughout the warmer months.
Tick Facts
The landscape of pest control has changed. Milder winters and a "booming" population have brought dangerous new threats directly to your suburban lawn.
- The "Biological Cement" Factor: Ticks use a natural adhesive to glue themselves to your skin, making removal nearly impossible without professional tools.
- 2026 data shows tick-related ER visits are up 25% in DC, Maryland, and Virginia.
- Cases of Babesiosis—a malaria-like parasite that lacks the classic "bullseye" rash—are on the rise in Maryland and Virginia.
- The Alpha-gal Risk: A single bite from a Lone Star tick can trigger a life-threatening, permanent allergy to red meat.
- Ticks can lay 2,000 eggs at a time, and a mate is not required.
