Tick Control for Your Yard

Help control your home from the dangers of tick-borne diseases with tick control for your yard. Ticks are parasites that feed on warm-blooded hosts including humans, dogs, cats, and deer. Without proper tick control and prevention services, these small pests can cause big problems. They carry a variety of diseases including Lyme disease, Ehrlichiosis, Bartonella, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, and more. For instance, Lyme disease and other co-bacterial infections are caused by the bite of an infected deer tick, a type of tick which is prevalent in the North East. If untreated, these diseases can lead to a number of health problems and life altering symptoms. It’s likely you have heard of some of these diseases, but how can you get tick control in your own backyard?

There are few strategies to help you, your family, and pets lower the risk of getting a tick-borne illness:

Wear long-sleeved shirts and pants- If you are in a wooded area or in long grass, wear clothes that cover your arms and legs, tuck in your shirt, and tuck your pants into your socks to prevent ticks from getting on your skin.

Wear light colored clothes- If your clothes are lighter, you will be able to see the ticks crawling on you before they reach the skin.

Spray clothes and exposed skin with insect repellent- bug spray will help repel ticks before they bite!

Talk to your vet about tick prevention- Don’t forget about man’s best friend! Your pets can also suffer from diseases like Lyme, so talk to your veterinarian about tick, flea, and heartworm prevention.

Even with these preventative measures, it’s highly important to take all precautions to get control of your property from tick colonies and infestations.
