The effects of climate change continue to impact the ecosystem. A warm winter, combined with a wet spring, have created “perfect” conditions for insect populations to survive—and thrive.

Cherry Hill’s holistic, family-owned Elements Lawn Care has confirmed an early and “abundant” presence of ticks and mosquitoes in the area—and the summer season has just arrived.

“The threat of diseases such as the Zika virus, and tick-borne Lyme and the Powassan virus, are a reality that we cannot ignore,” says Erick Alpizar of Elements.

As a result, Elements Lawn Care is offering full organic mosquito and tick control programs in the tri-county Burlington, Camden and Gloucester area.

“This program consists of four steps,” explains Alpizar. “During each visit, we apply an organic product to all structures, landscaping and the perimeter of the property. The product will control existing mosquitos upon contact, and provide a residual control up to 30 days.”

Alpizar assures homeowners that the product is safe for people and pets, and will not stain surfaces.
