Connecticut’s Trusted Tick Control Experts

Ticks are a serious concern in Newington, especially during the warmer months when they thrive in shaded yards, tall grasses, and areas with mature trees. With neighborhoods featuring established landscaping, parks, and green corridors throughout town, tick activity is a common issue for local homeowners. Certain species, including the blacklegged tick, can transmit Lyme disease, anaplasmosis, and babesiosis, putting both families and pets at risk if not properly managed.

Our approach to tick control

At Scenic Landscaping & Property Maintenance, we provide professional tick control services for Newington homeowners and businesses using proven treatment methods. As a licensed and insured local company serving Hartford County, our treatments are applied safely and responsibly, with attention to effectiveness, property layout, and the landscape conditions commonly found throughout Newington.

We offer two types of treatments:

    • Standard barrier treatment – Uses a synthetically derived formula originally based on natural compounds. This option delivers strong knockdown and long-lasting residual protection, making it the most effective choice for consistent tick reduction on many Newington properties.
    • All-natural treatment – Made with cedarwood oil and a natural sticking agent. This is a good option for clients who prefer a natural solution, though it typically requires more frequent applications to maintain reliable control.

We also recommend landscaping improvements that help reduce tick habitat on Newington properties, including:

    • Trimming overgrown shrubs, foundation plantings, and tall grasses
    • Removing leaf litter, brush piles, and yard debris where ticks commonly hide
    • Creating sunlit buffer zones between lawn areas and tree lines or wooded borders

By combining targeted tick treatments with smart landscape maintenance, our Newington clients are able to enjoy their outdoor spaces with greater confidence and fewer concerns throughout the tick season.

Scenic Landscaping & Property Maintenance is a full-service landscaping company that also offers tick control as part of our ongoing property maintenance services. We’re based in Rocky Hill, Connecticut, and serve homeowners throughout Hartford County, including Berlin, Cromwell, Glastonbury, Newington, West Hartford, and Wethersfield. Whether you’re trying to protect your family and pets from tick-borne illnesses or just want to feel more comfortable spending time in your yard, our tick control treatments can help. We offer both synthetic and all-natural applications, along with habitat-focused strategies to help reduce tick activity around your home.

Inside Our Professional Tick Control Process

Our tick control process in Newington is designed to target ticks where they live, breed, and wait for hosts. By focusing on the specific areas ticks actually use, we’re able to reduce activity effectively without unnecessary applications. Here’s how it works:

1. Property inspection

We begin by walking your Newington property to identify high-risk areas where ticks commonly hide. This includes shaded yard edges, fence lines, tall grass, leaf piles, stone borders, and landscape beds near homes, garages, and sheds. Many properties in Newington feature mature trees and established plantings, making this step critical for creating a focused treatment plan that targets tick-prone zones while avoiding over-application.

2. Barrier treatment application

Next, we apply a professional barrier treatment around the perimeter of your lawn and in key hotspots where ticks are known to nest and travel. These treated zones are designed to eliminate ticks on contact and provide residual protection that lasts for several weeks.

    • Our standard treatment uses a synthetically derived solution originally based on natural compounds. It delivers strong knockdown and dependable residual coverage between visits.
    • For homeowners who prefer a fully natural option, we also offer cedarwood oil–based treatments. These provide effective control but typically require more frequent applications to maintain consistent results.

All applications are performed by our licensed and insured team, following responsible treatment practices suited to Newington’s residential landscapes and seasonal conditions.

3. Ongoing maintenance

For the most reliable protection, tick control should be applied on a recurring schedule throughout the season, typically from early spring through fall in Connecticut. We offer convenient maintenance programs for Newington homeowners, helping keep tick populations under control with minimal effort on your part.

Scenic landscaping has been handling all my garden , lawn , fall cleanup , retaining wall work , and all my snow removal including driveway,sidewalk,walkway to front door and patio. They have been working with me for two decades and I am always happy with the results of every project we have done also including many plantings and reseeding the yard.

I have faith that everything will always be done well and professionally and that is why I have not changed from using them for anything I need done. Also I am very particular about everything that is being done and they never disappoint. You will be very satisfied and very happy with the work that the team completes for you. Sincerely Paris

I couldn't be happier with the results! The guys worked in sweltering heat for 5 days and still completed my landscaping and new patio in that short time- amazing! Scenic will definitely be my "go to" for any future landscaping and maintenance.

I contacted Dave at Scenic Landscaping for some drainage and lawn work at our house in Wethersfield. Dave immediately got back to me and scheduled a visit to the home to see what was going on and how they might address the issues. The resolution was a regrading of the low spots and a redirection of the gutter downspouts to move the standing water away from the patio and to an existing drain. The work was scheduled and completed on time and thus far the standing water problem has been virtually eliminated and new grass has already started to grow in the areas that were worked. Dave and the Scenic crew are obviously experienced and have the expertise to address any existing or new landscaping projects…small or large. They are great to deal with and I would highly recommend them for landscaping projects at your home or business.

Scenic takes care of the grounds in our complex. We recently hired them to trim the arborvitae by our patio. They did a really nice job and it looks very professional.

Scenic guys were great! Dave and Enzo were always responsive, patient, and flexible. I changed my plan a couple of times and they just went with it without a hitch! I appreciated their professional advice that worked out perfectly for my project. They build two patios, with fire pit and outdoor kitchen along with beautiful landscaping. I am very happy!!!
