Lawn fertilization and tick and mosquito programs for Somers, from Heritage Hills to the Amawalk and Muscoot reservoir neighborhoods.
Somers, Westchester CountyVanguard Property Defense provides tick and mosquito pest control and lawn fertilization programs for homes in Somers, Westchester County, NY. Every program starts with a free property evaluation, there are no contracts, and one local crew handles both the pest and lawn work.
Somers mixes older farmhouses on wooded roads, newer subdivisions off Route 100 and 202, and the large Heritage Hills community. Amawalk and Muscoot reservoirs and Reis Park bring water, woods, and deer close to nearly every neighborhood.
Subdivision lawns here often sit on graded fill that compacts hard, while the older lots have the shade and stone walls typical of northern Westchester.
Pest Control
Reservoir buffers and Reis Park keep deer moving through Somers, and ticks come with them.
Mosquito Control
The Amawalk and Muscoot reservoirs and shaded common areas around Heritage Hills keep mosquito pressure high in Somers.
Lawn Fertilization
Newer Somers lawns compact, older ones shade out, and both respond to the same fall routine.

Somers FAQsYes. The Amawalk and Muscoot reservoirs and shaded common areas around Heritage Hills keep mosquito pressure high in Somers. Our mosquito barrier treatments target the shaded vegetation where adults rest, every three to four weeks from late May through September, and a single pre-event treatment is available before a backyard gathering.
Pricing is by treated area and the level of protection you choose, so a Somers quote follows a free walk-through of the property. Most homeowners pick a seasonal program with visits every three to four weeks; single treatments are available. There are no contracts.
A Somers lawn gets four to five feedings a year. Northern Westchester runs a week or two behind the south, so the first feeding and crabgrass pre-emergent go down in April, late spring brings the second feeding with weed control, summer gets a slow-release feeding, and the fall program with aeration and overseeding runs from September into October. We set the exact dates from soil temperature, not the calendar, and every visit ends with a service note.
Often, yes. Treatments are limited to the areas you are responsible for, and some associations have their own rules. We can confirm what applies during the evaluation.
Graded fill under new construction compacts hard. Core aeration each fall, sometimes with a spring pass the first year, opens the soil so water and roots can move.
Yes. All of Somers, including Lincolndale, Granite Springs, Amawalk, and Baldwin Place, is on our route.
