Cape Cod Mosquito Squad

Cape Cod Mosquito Squad, based in Dennis Port, is the call homeowners across the Cape make for backyard mosquito and tick control — the kind of service people sign up for once a bug-plagued cookout makes the case. Across hundreds of Google reviews averaging 4.9 stars, the same result keeps repeating: yards that were unusable in June turn into places people actually sit outside by midsummer. The written history runs back to at least 2021, and it's built on repeat customers rather than one-off jobs — several reviewers describe being in their third, fourth, or fifth season with the company, including one family on a marsh who says treatment has kept things livable outdoors for more than five years. Technicians get named and remembered across different years — Kwame Johnson, Antonio, Kyle and Jon, Nick and Joe, Dylan and Steve — described as punctual and thorough rather than just pleasant. The company also offers a natural, essential-oil-based spray alongside its standard barrier treatment, which a few reviewers specifically chose for pets or kids. It's worth going in with realistic expectations: a handful of reviewers are careful to say the service cuts the mosquito and tick population sharply rather than wiping it out entirely — one five-year customer put it plainly, calling total bug elimination impossible but the reduction worth it. Separately, a 2026 review describes a driver who pulled into a customer's driveway uninvited and was slow to leave when asked — a property-boundary complaint about one visit rather than about the treatment's effectiveness, but worth knowing about. For anyone dealing with a rough mosquito or tick season on the Cape — especially near marsh, woods, or water — this is the company most reviewers say they'd call again, and many already have, season after season.
