Overview

First and foremost is education. Our goal is to provide you with professional services, current & comprehensive educational materials, and internet resources to protect you and your family against vector-borne diseases including Lyme disease, Babesia, Ehrlichiosis, EEE, West Nile Virus and others.  Each year Mainely Ticks hosts a number of informational meetings for interested community groups and over the past five years, we have distributed over 50,000 tick identification cards and educational brochures at wellness fairs, county fairs and various educational forums.

Tick & Mosquito Spray Programs.  There are four peak periods in which various stages of deer ticks appear in southern Maine. Our four spray tick program targets adults in mid April, nymphs in mid June, larvae in early August, and adults again in September and October. Our spray program targets these specific stages of tick development and is the most immediate & effective tick control method.  

Our mosquito treatment program begins in mid May and will significantly reduce the number of mosquitoes on your property for up to three weeks per application.

Party Spray. Planning an outdoor graduation reception?  How about a birthday party, family gathering or summer reunion? Our one time party spray will significantly reduce the number of ticks, mosquitoes and other insects invited to your function, making for a safer and more enjoyable gathering.
