Bug Control in New Prague, MN

The Groundsmasters targets mosquitoes, ticks, ants, fleas, and emerald ash borers on New Prague, MN properties with licensed, EPA-registered treatments. Our barrier sprays and trunk injections give families, businesses, and event venues a safer, more comfortable outdoor environment all season.

New Prague is a growing community in Scott County, about 40 miles northwest of Owatonna. The city blends small-town charm with steady residential growth, attracting families looking for an affordable, welcoming community between Owatonna and the Twin Cities. The natural environment around New Prague supports breeding populations of mosquitoes and ticks that can make outdoor living unpleasant and even hazardous. Deer ticks carrying Lyme disease are present throughout Scott County, and mosquito-borne illnesses remain a public health concern every summer in southern Minnesota.

Our mosquito and tick control program typically includes treatments every three to four weeks during the active season, from late May through September. We apply a targeted barrier spray to the perimeter of your property, focusing on shaded areas, ground cover, brush lines, and standing-water zones where mosquitoes breed and ticks harbor. The treatment creates a protective barrier that dramatically reduces pest populations on your property.

For ant infestations — including carpenter ants, pavement ants, and field ants — we provide both exterior perimeter treatments and targeted interior applications when needed. Carpenter ants are a particular concern for New Prague homeowners because they can cause structural damage by hollowing out wood members in your home.

Emerald ash borer (EAB) treatment is another critical service we offer in New Prague. This invasive beetle has devastated ash tree populations across Minnesota, and Scott County is within the established infestation zone. We provide trunk-injection treatments that protect your ash trees for up to two years per application, preserving valuable shade trees that can take decades to replace.

New Prague's location in the rolling farmland of Scott County means properties can experience heavy clay soils and drainage challenges. Our experienced crews know how to manage these conditions for healthy, attractive lawns and landscapes.

From the historic homes near downtown to the growing neighborhoods on the east and south sides of town, New Prague property owners rely on scheduled grounds care to keep their properties sharp year-round.

All of our pest control products are applied by licensed, trained technicians using EPA-registered formulations. We prioritize targeted application methods that minimize impact on beneficial insects like pollinators while effectively controlling harmful pests. Our team follows all Minnesota Department of Agriculture regulations and best practices for integrated pest management.
