Outdoor protection from fleas, ticks & mosquitoes

Enjoy your yard again. PestNow's Yard Guard Program targets fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes at every life stage for fast relief and season-long results across Manassas and Prince William County—including Old Town, Georgetown South, Sudley, West Gate, Yorkshire, Bull Run, and nearby Manassas Park, Bristow, Gainesville, and Nokesville.

Why mosquitoes, fleas, and ticks love Manassas

Warm, humid summers, wooded buffers, stream corridors, and pockets of standing water around landscaping make an ideal habitat. Yard Guard pairs prevention (source reduction) with knockdown (population reduction) to cut populations quickly and keep them down.

How Yard Guard works

Step 1: Source Reduction (stop the cycle before it starts)

Upon arrival, our technicians will:

• Inspect for breeding hot spots—planters, buckets, clogged gutters, birdbaths, tarps, tire swings, low spots, leaf litter, dense shrubs..

• Treat mosquito breeding water with EPA-approved larvicides (where appropriate).

• Recommend fixes to reduce standing water and moisture (grading, downspouts, mulch/debris cleanup).

Step 2: Population Reduction (immediate relief + residual protection)

• Apply professional-grade power mist blower treatments to dense shrubbery, tall grass, tree lines, under decks/porches, shaded & humid zones, and high-use areas like patios.

• This knocks down adults on contact and leaves a protective barrier to reduce reinfestation between visits.

Seasonal schedule: Seven monthly services, April-October. Each service aims to provide ~30 days of protection, and we adjust for weather to keep coverage consistent.

We typically schedule the first visit within a few business days; spring fills fast—book early for preferred times.

Do you offer one-time sprays for events?
Yes—event treatments for parties and backyard gatherings. We'll time it for best results.

What's covered?
Mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas. Gnats/no-see-ums may be reduced in treated zones but aren't guaranteed.

Is it safe for kids and pets?
We use EPA-approved products and IPM techniques. Keep people and pets off treated areas until dry.

What about gardens and pollinators?
We avoid edible plants and blooming flowers, create buffer zones, and focus on shaded resting sites.

My yard backs to wooded common areas—will it work?
Yes. We emphasize edge habitats where ticks and mosquitoes rest; consistent monthly service is key.

What if it rains after treatment?
If heavy rain is forecast, we adjust timing. After drying, treatments bind to foliage and stay effective.

Should I mow or water the day of service?
Mow before if possible; run sprinklers after areas are dry or the next day.

Will this eliminate every mosquito/tick/flea?
No service can promise zero pests, but Yard Guard dramatically reduces populations and interrupts life cycles for noticeable relief—often within 24-48 hours.

Do you bundle services?
Yes—ask about bundling Yard Guard with general pest control or termite protection.
