Mosquito problems in the Greater Toronto Area can escalate quickly from late spring through early fall. Tree Doctors provides a scientifically guided approach that delivers long-lasting, site-specific results for those searching for effective mosquito control nearby.
Our Approach to Mosquito Control
Tree Doctors, a leading Toronto-based tree care company, offers more than just arborist services. We prioritize the health of your landscape and everyone who enjoys it. Our licensed technicians leverage a deep understanding of tree biology and urban ecology to identify hidden mosquito habitats.
Each treatment plan is tailored to your property's unique conditions, keeping individuals, animals, pollinators, and plants safe.
For Families Who Want to Avoid the Risk
For families with young children or a pregnant partner at home, mosquito control isn’t just a convenience, it’s a necessity. Mosquito bites are more than just itchy irritants for sensitive individuals. They can lead to allergic reactions or infections, and most families prefer to avoid repeatedly spraying harsh chemical repellents on their children’s skin or their own.
These sprays can be unpleasant, short-lived in effectiveness, and often not entirely safe. That’s why Tree Doctors offers a smarter solution: yard-wide mosquito protection that works at the source, without putting harmful chemicals on your body.
How Tree Doctors Addresses Mosquito Infestations
A female mosquito can lay up to 300 eggs per cycle, and they will repeat this multiple times during their lifetime. Under the right circumstances, these eggs have the potential to survive for months.
Tree Doctors’ strategy starts with an on-site ecological evaluation, identifying the key breeding and resting areas around your home. From there, we apply targeted treatments, using permethrin-based insecticides approved by Health Canada and natural pyrethroids derived from chrysanthemums. These treatments are applied according to strict label instructions by our licensed technicians, ensuring both safety and effectiveness.

Each service includes detailed logs, documenting application rates, weather conditions, site notes, and follow-up assessments. This ensures full transparency, regulatory compliance, and ongoing optimization of our treatments.
Service Options and Professional Credentials
We offer both one-time treatments, ideal for preparing for BBQs, family gatherings, or outdoor events, and full-season maintenance programs from May to October.
