All-Natural Tick & Mosquito Control With Staten Island Roots
Bite Back Tick & Mosquito Control of Staten Island is built around one simple idea: families should be able to enjoy their yards without relying on toxic synthetic pesticides.
For founder Laurie, Staten Island is personal. She was born and raised here, and bringing Bite Back to the borough means protecting outdoor spaces in the community that helped shape her.

Because What Is Sprayed in Your Yard Matters
Bite Back was created for families who want effective seasonal mosquito and tick control without treating their outdoor space like a chemical zone.
Our approach is all-natural and targeted. Instead of blanketing open lawn, we focus on the places mosquitoes and ticks actually use: shaded landscaping, wooded borders, fence lines, brush, leaf litter, under decks, pet routes, patios, pool areas, damp pockets, and standing water risks.
Bite Back Started With a Family, a Yard, and a Better Idea
Bite Back did not begin as a generic pest-control concept. It began with a homeowner asking the same question many families ask: what are we spraying around the people and pets we care about?
Laurie wanted mosquito and tick protection she could feel comfortable using around her own family and dog. That search became the foundation of Bite Back — an all-natural service built around targeted applications, seasonal consistency, and respect for the property.
Over time, that simple idea grew into a service model focused not only on what is applied, but also where it is applied, what conditions are creating pressure, and how customers are kept informed.
“The goal was never to make a yard smell like it had been sprayed. The goal was to understand where the pests were coming from and treat the areas that actually matter.”
Laurie — Born and Raised on Staten Island
For Laurie, bringing Bite Back to Staten Island is more than opening another service area. It is bringing the company back to the borough where she grew up.
Laurie
Founder · Staten Island native · Family-first voice behind Bite Back
Laurie was born and raised on Staten Island. She knows the borough as a community, not simply as a collection of ZIP codes or route stops.
She also understands why outdoor pest pressure can be so frustrating here. Staten Island combines residential neighborhoods with wooded parks, deer activity, mature landscaping, shaded lots, marsh and harbor influence, pools, patios, and outdoor spaces families want to use throughout the warmer months.
Her standard for Bite Back has remained consistent from the beginning: use all-natural products, avoid synthetic pesticides, communicate clearly, and treat every property as a real home rather than another stop on a route.
A Different Kind of Mosquito and Tick Service
The product matters, but so does the way the property is treated. Bite Back is designed around both.
All-natural only
Our program uses essential-oil-based treatments and never relies on toxic synthetic pesticides.
Target the hot zones
We focus on the shaded, damp, wooded, landscaped, and protected areas where mosquitoes and ticks actually live and rest.
Clear communication
Customers receive reminders, on-the-way notifications, completion updates, and service notes so they know what is happening.
Built around real families
Pets, play areas, pools, patios, gates, gardens, and outdoor living spaces are part of how we think about every property.
Seasonal consistency
Our season generally runs April through October, with treatments typically scheduled about every 21 days.
No contracts
Choose flexible pay-as-you-go service or prepay for the season. We do not lock customers into long-term contracts.
Why Staten Island Can Have Serious Mosquito and Tick Pressure
Staten Island has a unique mix of suburban yards, wooded parkland, wildlife, coastal moisture, mature landscaping, and dense neighborhoods. Those conditions can create ideal habitat for both ticks and mosquitoes.
Wooded borders & deer movement
Leaf litter, brush, groundcover, wooded edges, deer paths, and shaded fence lines can create strong tick corridors into residential yards.
Shade & dense landscaping
Mosquitoes rest during the day in cool, protected areas such as shrubs, foundation beds, under decks, ivy, and dense perimeter growth.
Humidity & standing water
Marsh influence, rain, irrigation, pools, planters, toys, drains, gutters, and low spots can quickly rebuild mosquito pressure.
“On Staten Island, one block can be heavily wooded while the next is all pools, patios, mature shrubs, and tight side yards. The property conditions always matter.”
What We Believe Every Customer Should Expect
Bite Back is built around a few standards that guide every treatment and every customer interaction.
What is sprayed matters
Families deserve to know what is being used around their home, pets, pools, patios, and play areas.
Treat with purpose
We target pest habitat and pressure zones instead of spraying open lawn simply to cover more square footage.
Respect the property
Gates, gardens, pets, pools, playsets, flowering plants, and sensitive areas should always be treated thoughtfully.
Communicate clearly
Customers should know when we are coming, when we are on the way, and when their treatment has been completed.
A Practical Process Built Around the Property
Mosquito and tick pressure is rarely random. We look at the conditions around the yard and focus treatment where it can matter most.
We look at the yard
Shade, woods, brush, pets, pools, patios, standing water, drainage, leaf litter, deer traffic, and landscaping all help explain pressure.
We target pest habitat
Treatment focuses on shaded edges, landscape beds, wooded borders, fence lines, under decks, pet routes, and other hot zones.
We stay consistent
Heat, rain, humidity, vegetation, wildlife movement, and neighboring conditions change throughout the season, so recurring service matters.
We keep you informed
Customers receive appointment reminders, on-the-way messages, completion notices, and service notes throughout the season.
Local Service Across Staten Island
We serve residential routes throughout Staten Island, including South Shore, Mid-Island, East Shore, North Shore, and West Shore neighborhoods. Exact availability depends on your address, current route capacity, and seasonal demand.
