Tick & Flea Protection Comes Standard

Hoffman Estates's wooded lots, forest preserves, and mature landscaping create ideal habitat for both mosquitoes and deer ticks year-round. Most homeowners assume treatment starts in May. It should start in March.

Skeeter Beater's bi-weekly barrier treatments eliminate mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas in one visit — targeting shaded ground cover, leaf litter, and wooded borders where they actually hide. It's the most effective Lyme disease prevention available for your yard. Other companies charge extra for tick control. We don't.

🌡️
The 40°F Rule: Deer ticks activate when temps hit 40°F — that's most mornings in Hoffman Estates from late February onward. By the time you're comfortable going outside, ticks are already looking for a host.

"Skeeter Beater does an amazing job spraying my yard for ticks and mosquitoes! Other companies charge extra for different bugs — Skeeter Beater includes both in one spray. I've used them for 2 years and noticed a huge difference. My family enjoys the backyard all summer now."

— Christian K. · Chicagoland
★★★★★

"Nearly 4 acres, heavily wooded in many spots. Doesn't matter — mosquitoes don't stand a chance. It's made a huge difference for us!"

— J.D. · Lake County

"We have been using Skeeter Beater since 2016. Always reasonably priced and customer service is top notch."

— Niraj Patel · Local Guide

"Because I have dogs and horses, I use the organic spray. It works so well and I still have bees and dragonflies. The technicians do a wonderful job covering my entire 5 acres."

— Steph Wess · Lake County

— Sally Fletcher · Lake County

"I started using Skeeter Beater just before my daughter's wedding — hosting the Rehearsal Dinner in my backyard. The party was a HUGE success, not one guest complained about bugs. I can't imagine a summer without them!"

COMMON QUESTIONS

Everything You Want to Know Before Booking

We get these questions every day. Here are straight answers — no runaround.

How much does mosquito control cost?
We quote by square footage — no in-person visit needed. Our Mosquito + Tick Combo is the most popular plan and includes both pests at no upcharge. New customers save 10% on their first package — mention it when you call or submit the form.
Is it safe for kids and pets?
Yes. All treatments are EPA-registered. Once dry — typically about an hour — the yard is completely safe for children, dogs, cats, and even horses. We also offer a certified organic, chemical-free treatment option — a natural, non-toxic solution that's great if you have sensitive animals or prefer plant-based products. Ask us about organic pricing.
Do I need to be home during treatment?
No. You just need to give us yard access. We send a text or call 48 hours before every visit so you can bring pets inside. Most customers never see us — they just come home to a mosquito-free yard.
When does treatment start working?
You'll see a 90% reduction within 24 hours of the first treatment. Some customers notice results within an hour. The barrier builds up over your first 2–3 visits, so effectiveness improves across the season.
What's the 10-day guarantee?
If mosquitoes come back within 10 days of any treatment, we return and re-treat at no charge. No questions asked, no forms to fill out — just call or email us. We've been doing this since 2003 and we stand behind every single visit.
When should I start tick treatments?
Earlier than most people think. Deer ticks activate when temperatures hit 40°F — which in Hoffman Estates means late February through early March. Waiting until May means your family and pets are already at risk during peak tick season. We recommend starting no later than April 1st, and ideally in late March.
What makes Skeeter Beater different from the national franchise companies?
We're locally owned and have served Lake County since 2003 — not a national franchise that opened a location and sends whoever's available. Unlike a generic exterminator, we specialize exclusively in mosquito and tick control. We know this terrain, we answer our own phone, and our professional technicians aren't rotating contractors. Our truck-mounted equipment sprays 25 feet into the canopy, reaching where backpack sprayers can't. Tick and flea control is included in every plan at no upcharge.
