Mosquito & tick control in Hollis: what to know
Hollis is a residential Queens neighbourhood of detached and semi-detached homes with yards on tree-lined streets between Jamaica Avenue and Hillside Avenue — the housing profile brings classic suburban pest issues: ants through foundation cracks, stinging insects in eave nests, and occasional-invaders entering around doors and windows.
Jamaica Avenue's commercial corridor sustains rodent pressure that enters adjacent residential properties through basement gaps; older homes along Hollis Avenue with larger lots and mature trees face more wildlife and stinging-insect pressure than properties on smaller plots.
Proximity to the Hillside Avenue commercial strip and the surrounding mixed-use blocks keeps cockroach and rodent activity elevated in multi-family buildings and ground-floor commercial-to-residential transitions.

How we treat mosquito & tick control in Hollis
Mosquitoes and ticks turn a backyard, garden or building courtyard into a no-go zone in the warm months — and both carry disease (West Nile, Lyme). Standing water, shaded vegetation and leaf litter are where they breed and rest.
We treat the resting and breeding areas — dense shrubs, shaded perimeters, standing-water sources — to knock down the population and break the breeding cycle, with seasonal programmes that maintain protection through the summer.
