The Dangers of Pesticide Drift
Pesticide spray drift is the movement of pesticide dust or droplets carried by the wind to any site other than the area intended. Pesticide drift can affect people’s health and the environment, and damage nearby crops. One neighbor’s decision to use harmful pesticides can affect the whole neighborhood. Pure Solutions’ goal is to educate neighborhoods and encourage the use of nontoxic insecticide solutions.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does all natural tick control work?
Our Progaea tick and mosquito control products are all-natural and effectively kill and repel ticks and mosquitoes from treated areas. The essential oils in our products eliminate these pests on contact and provide a lasting repellent effect. Our product stands out as one of the few all-natural alternatives with a killing effect on ticks and mosquitoes comparable to synthetic pesticides. This means that even after the product has dried, any ticks or mosquitoes that come into contact with treated plants will still die.
What is all natural tick control?
We use an EPA 25b all-natural product called Progaea TMpro. This product is exclusive to Pure Solutions and is comprised of essential oils and soap. This product kills ticks & mosquitoes on contact and provides residual protection once dry.
Does mosquito and tick spraying work?
Mosquito and tick spraying can be an effective method for controlling the populations of these disease-carrying pests. Spraying insecticides can kill adult mosquitoes and ticks, as well as their larvae and eggs. By reducing the number of pests in an area, the risk of mosquito-borne and tick-borne diseases, such as West Nile virus, Lyme disease, and Zika virus, can be significantly reduced. Additionally, mosquito and tick spraying can be targeted to specific areas, such as parks, playgrounds, and other outdoor recreational areas where people tend to gather and where these pests are most active.
How long does tick and mosquito spray last?
We perform treatments every 21 days since we use an all-natural product called TMpro comprised of essential oils and soap that begins to biodegrade after three weeks. The solution dries within 45 minutes of application and is resistant to rain.
What is a natural botanical insecticide?

What is the role of botanicals in pest management?
Botanicals have been used for centuries as a means of pest management, and their role in modern pest control practices continues to be significant. Botanicals are derived from plants and can include compounds such as essential oils, extracts, and powders. They can be used in various forms, including sprays, dusts, and fumigants. The active ingredients in botanicals have different modes of action, including repellency, toxicity, and growth regulation, which can target different types of pests. Additionally, botanicals are often considered safer alternatives to synthetic pesticides, as they are biodegradable and have lower levels of toxicity to non-target organisms.
When should you put pest control on your lawn?
The ideal time to apply pest control on your lawn depends on the type of pest and the location. Some pests are active during specific seasons, while others are present year-round. Ticks can be active as long as tempteratures are above freezing. Our regular season runs from March to December, and is fully customizable for more frequent treatments during the height of the tick and mosquito season. Ticks breed in the winter and lay eggs in the spring, so late and early season treatments are important to prevent eggs from being laid on your property.
