How It Works
How BuzzSkito Tick Control Works
Property Tick Assessment
We identify tick habitat zones — lawn-to-woods transitions, leaf litter, garden bed edges, and fence lines on your property.
Targeted Barrier Spray
Our licensed technician applies barrier spray, according to label directions, to the specific 1-3 metre zones where ticks concentrate — precision treatment, not broadcast spraying.
Five Visits, Rain-Back Guarantee
We return roughly monthly for 5 tick sprays through the season. Rain within 1 hour of your treatment? We come back and re-treat free, on every plan.
Why Tick Spray Is Crucial in Markham
Markham is unique in the GTA in that it borders a federally protected national park. Rouge National Urban Park stretches from Scarborough into Markham's eastern boundary, creating one of the most significant blacklegged tick habitats in the region. Unlike fragmented urban conservation areas, Rouge provides continuous forest, meadow, and valley ecosystems where tick populations are well established and expanding. York Region Public Health tracks tick activity across the region and advises residents to check for ticks after spending time outdoors.
The Rouge River valley itself acts as a tick corridor that carries populations from the park's interior toward residential neighbourhoods. Toogood Pond in Unionville and its surrounding trail system sit in a lower-lying wooded area that creates classic nymph tick habitat in May and June — precisely when children and pets spend the most time outdoors. Cornell and Cathedraltown properties on the park boundary have some of the highest tick exposure rates of any suburban neighbourhood in York Region.
Tick Hotspots in Markham

- Rouge River valley wooded margins throughout eastern Markham
- Toogood Pond trail system (Unionville) — wooded nymph tick habitat

FAQ – Tick Spray in Markham
How much does tick spray cost in Markham?
Tick spray in Markham starts from $99 for a single application. Properties near Rouge National Urban Park or any ravine corridor in Markham typically take the full season programme: five treatments spread roughly monthly from May through September, $597 on its own or $497 when added to a mosquito plan. Monthly visits keep treatments on schedule through the May–July nymph peak instead of leaving a gap in those months. Public Health Ontario notes nymphs are poppy-seed sized and easy to miss, so do a tick check after time outdoors. No contracts. Call (289) 216-5030.
Which Markham neighbourhoods have the highest tick risk?
Neighbourhoods bordering or near Rouge National Urban Park have the highest exposure — this includes Cornell, Cathedraltown, and the eastern edges of Markham. Unionville's Toogood Pond trail area and the Rouge River valley wooded margins are also active tick zones. Berczy Village and Angus Glen properties adjacent to forested corridors face real seasonal risk.
What makes Rouge National Urban Park different from other tick habitats?
Rouge National Urban Park is a federally protected national park with vast forest, meadow, and river valley ecosystems — it is among the largest and most ecologically intact tick habitats in the entire GTA. Unlike small ravines or conservation reserves, Rouge provides deep forest habitat where blacklegged tick populations can thrive with minimal human disturbance. Properties adjacent to its boundaries sit right next to that habitat, and York Region Public Health advises residents to check themselves, children and pets for ticks after time outdoors.
