Our Process
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 a barrier product according to its label directions to the specific 1-3 metre zones where ticks concentrate — precision treatment, not broadcast spraying.
Five Sprays Per Season
Treatments repeat roughly monthly from May through September, so the edge zones stay treated from spring nymphs to autumn adults. Rain within 1 hour of your treatment? We come back and re-treat free, on every plan.
Why Tick Spray Is Crucial in Scarborough
Scarborough is home to the largest federally protected natural area within a Canadian city — Rouge National Urban Park. This isn't a small conservation reserve. It's a national park with extensive forest, meadow, and wetland ecosystems that support well-established blacklegged tick populations. Toronto Public Health monitors tick activity in Rouge annually and has documented consistent, high tick presence in the forest-meadow edge zones that border Scarborough's residential areas in Rouge, West Hill, and Highland Creek.
Highland Creek valley runs through the heart of Scarborough from Markham all the way to Lake Ontario, creating a long continuous tick corridor through Morningside, West Hill, and Highland Creek neighbourhoods. Morningside Park's naturalized sections have also had documented tick activity. Any Scarborough property within a few hundred metres of these systems — not just the immediate ravine edge — faces real seasonal exposure risk from ticks.

FAQ – Tick Spray in Scarborough
How much does tick spray cost in Scarborough?
Tick spray in Scarborough starts from $99 per application. Properties near Rouge National Urban Park, Highland Creek valley, or any wooded ravine benefit most from the full seasonal program — five treatments spread roughly monthly from May through September — at $597 standalone, or $497 when added to any mosquito plan. No contracts. Call (289) 216-5030.
Is Rouge National Urban Park really a high-risk tick area?
Yes — it is one of the highest-risk areas in the entire GTA. Rouge National Urban Park is a federally protected national park with thousands of hectares of forest, meadow, wetland, and river valley habitat. Toronto Public Health conducts annual tick surveillance in Rouge and consistently confirms high blacklegged tick populations, particularly in the forest and meadow transition zones that border residential Scarborough neighbourhoods.
Which Scarborough neighbourhoods are most at risk for ticks?
Rouge and West Hill neighbourhoods that directly border Rouge National Urban Park have the highest tick exposure. Highland Creek, Morningside, and Guildwood properties adjacent to Highland Creek valley and Morningside Park are also high-risk. Toronto Public Health monitors Scarborough's ravine and park system annually, and these are the properties where we most often recommend a seasonal tick program.
How quickly do ticks spread from the park to my backyard?
Very quickly. Wildlife — particularly deer and small mammals — move freely between Rouge National Urban Park and residential Scarborough on a daily basis, carrying ticks with them. Ticks drop off hosts as they travel and can establish in any yard with suitable leaf litter, garden borders, or low vegetation. Properties within several blocks of the park boundary should treat proactively each season.
