Keep the Ticks Away for Worry-Free Play
Searching your kids or pets for ticks is nobody’s idea of fun. Ticks aren’t just annoying, they’re dangerous. Here in Central Virginia, the Lone Star Tick and Blacklegged Tick (Deer Tick) can transmit Lyme disease, Alpha-Gal Syndrome, and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever.
With Lawn Doctor of Greater Richmond’s Yard Armour® programs, you can protect your family and pets and enjoy your outdoor spaces safely and confidently.

Yard Armour® Mosquito & Tick Control Plan
(Foliar Spray – 5 Treatments)
Ticks and mosquitoes thrive in shaded, damp areas such as shrubbery, mulch beds, under decks, and along wood lines. Our Yard Armour® Mosquito & Tick Control Plan is a separate foliar spray program designed to target those problem zones directly.
We apply a fine mist to non-flowering bushes, ground cover, and low tree canopies surrounding your home. This treatment reduces mosquito and tick populations that can carry Lyme disease, Alpha-Gal Syndrome, and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, helping you reclaim your yard for safe, worry-free enjoyment.
Each application contains a surfactant, allowing the material to bond tightly to foliage so it doesn’t rub off once dry. With five strategically timed treatments per season, your property stays protected during the peak mosquito and tick season.
3 Stages of Tick Control
- Tick Prevention
Consistent treatment prevents populations from becoming established.
Homeowners can also help by:
- Keeping grass mowed to the correct height
- Pruning trees and shrubs to let in sunlight
- Raking leaves and removing brush or wood piles
- Control
Our Yard Armour® Tick Control Plan targets breeding and nesting zones to significantly reduce active populations and interrupt their life cycle.
Every service is backed by our Satisfaction Guarantee, if you’re not happy, we’ll make it right or refund the cost of your last service.
- Ongoing Maintenance
Ticks and mosquitoes don’t take a break, and neither do we. Our annual 5-treatment Mosquito & Tick Control Plan provides consistent protection throughout the warm season, ensuring your lawn remains a safe, enjoyable place for family, friends, and pets.
