Mike has been super professional and thorough with tick spraying our yard. Southbury has an abundance of them. With a toddler and a dog in the yard spraying this year was a necessity. Mike at tick and turf took the time to walk the property with my husband to make suggestions and show where and how deep he would spray. We have been extremely happy with his services and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to friends and family.

What plants benefit most from deer repellent?
Repellent is especially useful for evergreens, shrubs, ornamentals, and new plantings—plants deer typically target in Connecticut landscapes.
When is the best time to apply deer repellent?
Fall and early winter are critical, since food sources become scarce and deer browse heavily on evergreens. Spring and summer applications protect new growth when it’s most vulnerable.
