Of these services, they are probably best known for their mosquito control offerings.
Mosquito Defense
Mosquitoes are not only a nuisance, but they can also be a dangerous guest in any backyard. Known for their itchy and painful bites, this pest is also a carrier of several illnesses. To combat this, TruGreen has created their Mosquito Defense system. This is a program of 6 applications per year, done during the months mosquitoes are most known to be active. The monthly application is designed to attack the pests where they live, eliminating the problem directly at the source. Their technicians are trained and use a special mosquito control formula that is designed to eliminate mosquitoes from the property within 24 hours of the first application. Repeated monthly treatments are said to take out any new mosquitoes and discourage them from taking up future residence. TruGreen claims this treatment system not only protects against mosquito-transmitted diseases like Zika and West Nile but also eliminates the need to use chemical repellents on your body while in your backyard.
