Spring is here, which means backyard season is officially back. But if ticks and mosquitoes are taking over your yard, how much are you really enjoying it?
In this episode of Real Talk with Sterling Real Estate Group, we sit down with local business owner Blake Mahieu of Upstate Bug Busters to talk about what homeowners in the Capital Region need to know to keep their outdoor spaces safe, comfortable, and actually usable this season.
Blake shares how he built his business at a young age, why he chose an all-natural approach to pest control, and what makes Upstate Bug Busters different from traditional chemical treatments. The conversation dives into the real risks of ticks and mosquitoes – including Lyme disease and other tick-borne illnesses and why prevention matters more than most people think.
We also cover:
- When to start treatments (and if it’s ever too late)
- Whether spraying before a party actually works
- How long treatments last and why consistency matters
- Common mistakes homeowners make with their yards
- Simple things you can do right now to reduce ticks and mosquitoes
If you want to enjoy your backyard this spring and summer without worrying about bites, bugs, or bigger health risks – this episode is for you.
