Tick & Mosquito Control in Suffolk County, NY
A safer backyard for your family and pets.
Are mosquitoes and outdoor pests keeping you from enjoying your lawn? On Long Island, ticks and mosquitoes are more than a nuisance. Ticks can spread diseases like Lyme disease that affect people and pets, and mosquitoes can put your family at risk for diseases like West Nile and Zika virus. Emerald Magic focuses on where these pests live and breed, combining treatment and prevention to bring peace back to your yard.
Where Ticks and Mosquitoes Hide
Ticks like to live in tall grass, woods and shrubs, and deer can bring them right into your yard. Mosquitoes lay their eggs in standing water and usually rest on grass or plant leaves. In Long Island’s humid season, a yard can easily become a place for mosquitoes to thrive.
That is why effective control goes beyond the open lawn. Treating the underside of leaves disrupts mosquitoes’ resting time, and cleaning up along the grass and edges helps stop their breeding. For ticks, treatment plans consider how ticks behave to help prevent them from returning.
Our Tick and Mosquito Approach
An initial assessment to find the pests and learn about your yard’s environment.
Targeted spraying of grassy areas, edges and the underside of leaves.
Mosquito techniques that can include larvicides to break the life cycle, adulticides for flying mosquitoes, traps with attractants and natural repellents.
Eco-friendly tick options such as natural repellents and nematodes that target tick larvae.
Regular checks and maintenance, plus tips such as mowing and removing debris to reduce places for ticks to live.
Flea, tick and mosquito treatments are part of our EZ Home Programs, which bundle them with lawn and landscape protection and bed maintenance into one EZ payment.

Why Suffolk County Takes Ticks Seriously
Suffolk County is widely known as tick country. Wooded neighborhoods, preserved open space, hedgerows and a healthy deer population give ticks plenty of places to wait for a passing person or pet. Properties that back up to woods or tall grass, common from the North Shore hills to the Pine Barrens, see the most pressure at their edges.
Mosquitoes have their own local advantages. Tidal marshes along the South Shore bays and North Shore harbors, plus the clogged gutters, birdbaths, planters and toys that collect rainwater in every neighborhood, give them places to breed. Humid summer evenings do the rest.
A few simple habits help any yard: keep grass mowed, clear leaf litter and debris, and tip out standing water after a rain. Combined with targeted treatments, they make your outdoor space safer.
When Ticks and Mosquitoes Are Active
On Long Island, ticks can be active well beyond the summer months, so protection works best as a season-long plan.
Spring
As the weather warms, ticks become active in grass, leaf litter and wood lines. It is a good time to plan protection for the season ahead.
Summer
Mosquitoes peak in Long Island’s humid season, and ticks remain a concern for anyone spending time outdoors.
Fall
Ticks can stay active through cool fall days, especially in leaf litter. Keep checking pets and family after time outside.
Winter
Pests slow down in the cold, but mild spells can still bring ticks out. Plan next year’s program before spring arrives.

Everyday Tick and Mosquito Prevention
Professional treatment works best alongside a few easy habits around the house:
Mow regularly and keep grass at the edges of the yard trimmed.
Remove leaf litter and debris where ticks hide.
Tip out standing water from planters, toys, birdbaths and tarps after a rain.
Keep gutters clear so rainwater does not pool.
Check family and pets for ticks after time in the yard, woods or tall grass.
Deer carry ticks into yards, so discouraging deer helps, too. Ask us about deer control solutions for your property.
