Our Detailed Tick Control Service
Our tick control service is designed to be thorough and effective, addressing the root causes of tick infestations and preventing future problems. We tailor our approach to your specific property, taking into account the unique environmental factors that contribute to tick activity.
Comprehensive Property Inspection
We start with a detailed inspection of your property to identify tick hotspots, breeding grounds, and potential entry points. This allows us to develop a targeted treatment plan that addresses your specific needs.
Targeted Tick Treatments
Our treatments target ticks at all stages of their life cycle, from larvae to adults. We use a combination of methods, including:
Larvicides
These treatments target tick larvae in their breeding grounds, preventing them from maturing into adults.
Adulticides
These treatments eliminate adult ticks, providing immediate relief from infestations.
Barrier Treatments
We create a protective barrier around your property to prevent ticks from entering. This barrier is safe for your family and pets, but deadly to ticks.
Preventative Measures
In addition to our treatments, we also provide you with recommendations on how to prevent future tick infestations. This includes:
Landscaping Tips
Keeping your lawn mowed, removing leaf litter, and trimming bushes can help reduce tick habitats.
Personal Protection
We advise on the use of repellents and proper clothing to protect yourself from ticks when spending time outdoors.
Pet Protection
Talk to your vet about giving your pets tick and flea treatment medications for optimal pet protection.
Common Problems Addressed by Tick Control
Ticks can cause a variety of problems, from itchy bites to serious diseases. Here are some common issues that indicate a need for tick control:
Frequent Tick Bites
If you or your family members are frequently getting tick bites, it's a sign that there is a tick infestation on your property. Tick bites are not only irritating but can also transmit dangerous diseases.
Pets Bringing Ticks Indoors
Pets are a common source of ticks entering the home. If you notice ticks on your pets, it's important to take action to prevent them from spreading throughout your house. We can conduct flea and tick services at the same time for optimal results.
Presence of Tick-Borne Diseases
If you live in an area where tick-borne diseases are common, it's important to take precautions to protect yourself and your family. Tick control can significantly reduce your risk of contracting these diseases.
High Grass and Shrubbery
Ticks thrive in tall grass and dense shrubbery. By keeping your lawn mowed and trimming bushes, you can reduce tick habitats on your property. This will also help with mosquito control.
Wooded Areas
If your property borders a wooded area, you are more likely to have ticks. We can create a barrier treatment to prevent ticks from migrating from the woods into your yard.
Outdoor Activities
If you enjoy spending time outdoors, you are at a higher risk of encountering ticks. Whether you're hiking, camping, or gardening, it's important to take precautions to protect yourself from tick bites.
Mild Winters
Mild winters can lead to an increase in tick populations. Ticks are more likely to survive the winter and become active earlier in the spring. Don't let the bed bugs bite or the termites infest.
Wildlife Activity
Wildlife such as deer, rodents, and birds can carry ticks onto your property. Controlling wildlife populations can help reduce tick numbers. We also offer wildlife control services!
Leaf Litter
Ticks thrive in leaf litter, so it's important to remove leaves from your yard regularly. Raking leaves in the fall and spring can help reduce tick habitats.
Pet Health
Ticks can transmit diseases to pets, so it's important to protect your furry friends with tick prevention medication. Talk to your veterinarian about the best options for your pet, and ask us what can be done to help even more.
Understanding Tick Habitats and Behavior
To effectively control ticks, it's important to understand their habitats and behavior. Ticks are commonly found in grassy, wooded, and brushy areas. They wait for hosts to brush against them and then latch on. They can also be found in lawns, gardens, and even inside homes.
Tick Life Cycle
Ticks go through four life stages: egg, larva, nymph, and adult. Each stage requires a blood meal to develop. Ticks can feed on a variety of hosts, including humans, pets, and wildlife.
Tick-Borne Diseases
Ticks can transmit a variety of diseases through their bites. Some of the most common tick-borne diseases include Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, ehrlichiosis, and anaplasmosis.
Tick Prevention Tips
- Wear long sleeves and pants when spending time in tick-prone areas.
- Use insect repellent containing DEET.
- Check yourself and your pets for ticks after spending time outdoors.
- Remove ticks promptly and properly.
- Keep your lawn mowed and remove leaf litter.
