Introducing Buddy the Bug Buster — the new mascot of Upstate Bug Busters. Learn how Buddy helps educate families in the Capital Region about ticks, mosquitoes, Lyme disease prevention, and all-natural backyard safety.
At Upstate Bug Busters, we believe education is one of the most powerful ways to keep families safe from ticks, mosquitoes, and the dangerous diseases they carry. That’s why we’re excited to introduce the newest member of our team — and the new friendly face of outdoor safety across the Capital Region.
Meet Buddy the Bug Buster. 🧢🦟💪 Our official mascot, educator, and backyard safety expert — here to make learning about tick and mosquito prevention easier (and more fun!) than ever.
Why We Created Buddy
Ticks and mosquitoes are becoming increasingly dangerous in Upstate New York. Rising Lyme disease cases, tick-borne illnesses, and mosquito-borne viruses have turned outdoor awareness into a year-round priority.
Buddy was created to simplify that information for homeowners. Instead of overwhelming scientific jargon, he breaks everything down into short, easy-to-understand tips for families, pet owners, and seniors.
He represents what we stand for as a company: Trust. Safety. Family. And all-natural protection that truly works.
