Mosquito Control

Mosquito treatments target breeding sites and resting areas across your property on a 21-day schedule. The timing isn’t arbitrary: it’s calibrated to interrupt the mosquito breeding cycle before eggs laid since the previous visit develop through the larval stage into biting adults. Each application uses EPA-approved products applied within government-regulated safety guidelines and is carried out with pollinators and bees in mind.

Tick Control

Tick Control runs on the same 21-day treatment cycle as Mosquito Control and is backed by the same No Mosquitoes GUARANTEED program. If tick or mosquito activity rises between scheduled visits, we return at no extra charge. Mosquitoes, ticks, flies, and general pests all fall under one program, so there’s no separate contract to manage for each pest type.

Fly Control

Fly infestations usually trace back to a handful of sources around the property: standing water, pet areas, garbage, or compost. Our technicians target those sources and install fly traps positioned 4 to 6 feet above ground and 30 to 50 feet from the home. The traps use bait designed to attract flies and feature clear casings so you can see results between visits. Fly Control follows the same 21-day recurring schedule as our other programs and carries the same service policy: if flies reappear before your next scheduled visit, we come back at no additional charge.

Pest Control

Mosquito Authority of Hickory, NC also offers Pest Control alongside Mosquito Control, Tick Control, and Fly Control. It’s handled by the same team on the same recurring program, giving Hickory homeowners a single point of contact for the full range of outdoor pests that push families and pets back inside.

No Mosquitoes GUARANTEED. No Long-Term Contract.

Every service we provide is backed by a straightforward service policy: if pest activity rises before your next scheduled visit, we return and re-treat at no additional charge. There’s no fine print about which pest triggered the call. And because we don’t require a long-term commitment, you can start or stop service on your own schedule.

Mosquito Authority of Hickory, NC is independently owned and operated by a member of the Hickory community. Our technicians apply EPA-approved products within government-regulated safety guidelines on every visit, consistent across all four programs.

Why Pest Pressure Runs High Near Lake Hickory & the Catawba River

The Catawba Valley’s waterways do more than shape the landscape. Lake Hickory, Lake Rhodhiss, and the Catawba River corridor create miles of shoreline and riparian habitat where standing water and elevated humidity sustain mosquito and tick populations well into fall. Properties with wooded edges, wet low spots, or direct lake access typically see pressure earlier in spring and later in the season than inland yards.

Mosquito activity in the Hickory area builds through spring, peaks across summer, and holds into fall. Tick populations follow a longer arc, active from early spring into late fall across wooded lots and lake-adjacent properties. North Carolina health authorities track mosquito-borne illnesses including West Nile virus, Eastern equine encephalitis, and La Crosse encephalitis annually. In Catawba County’s wooded areas, blacklegged ticks are the primary carriers of Lyme disease, lone star ticks are linked to ehrlichiosis, and American dog ticks are associated with spotted fever rickettsiosis. House flies carry their own risks: researchers have isolated more than 130 pathogens from the common house fly.

Technicians who work the Catawba Valley season after season develop field understanding of how shoreline conditions, rainfall patterns, and property edges shape these cycles. That local knowledge informs how and where treatments are applied at properties throughout Hickory, Conover, Newton, and Morganton.

How the Service Process Works

Every program follows the same four steps, whether you’re scheduling Mosquito Control, Tick Control, Fly Control, or Pest Control.

Identify your problem: Tell us what you’re dealing with and where. A quick conversation points us toward the right service and scope.
Inspect your property: A technician walks your yard to assess conditions, breeding sites, and infestation sources before any product is applied.
Treat your property: We outline the scope of work, price, and approach, then treat once you’re ready to proceed. No obligation before that point.
Return on a 21-day cycle: Recurring visits keep treatments active through the season. One-time treatments are also available if season-long service isn’t what you need right now.
