Best In Class For Tick Barrier Control Services
Similar to our mosquito control services, our goal with ticks is to disrupt the lifecycle, starting at larvae to help reduce habitats on a long-term basis. While you can buy tick repellents at any hardware store, there are considerable disadvantages to relying on them if you don’t have tick control experience.
Our team has nearly two decades of experience dealing with ticks, and we know how to effectively control them on your property. We develop a custom plan based on the unique factors of your situation, like your region and the time of year. All of this helps to increase the likelihood that ticks will be wiped out on the spot and will stay away for longer.
Our Tick Tubes Do the Trick
If you’re struggling with a tick infestation, some of the best tools in our arsenal are tick tubes. Tick tubes rely on the relationship between ticks and mice to strategically target these pests – mice are attracted to the tick tubes because they are filled with treated cotton that serves as bedding material they can bring back to their homes. When ticks arrive to feast on the mice, they come into contact with the cotton – wiping them out on the spot.
Biodegradable tick tubes are easy to install and leave a minimal environmental footprint. Contact our team today to learn more about how they’ll work on your property. We’ll set up a visit so our expert team can assess your yard and determine the best places to put fresh tick tubes. With our help, you can look forward to a tick-free outdoor space as quickly as possible.
Fast Facts About Ticks
- There are over 900 species of ticks worldwide.
- They can transmit numerous diseases, including Lyme disease, anaplasmosis, and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever.
- Tens of thousands of people are diagnosed with Lyme disease each year.
- Ticks can stay attached to hosts anywhere from a few minutes to days, making them especially dangerous to pets.
- They live in woody and grassy areas, so countless backyards become their homes in the summer and fall.
- While they are stubborn and hard to remove on your own, our team of professionals utilize high-grade products designed to keep ticks away.
Through their bites, ticks can expose your family to diseases; including neurotoxins, allergens, bacteria, parasites, and viruses. A tickborne illness can range from mild to life-threatening, and constitute a substantial and growing public health problem in the United States.
Lyme disease is the most common vector-borne disease in the United States. A recently released estimate based on insurance records suggests that approximately 476,000 Americans are diagnosed and treated for Lyme disease each year. In addition to a large burden of illness, areas where Lyme disease is common are expanding.

Preventing Ticks in Your Yard
Lyme disease and other tick-borne diseases are on the rise in the United States. In addition to professional tick control, there are several steps you can take to create a “tick-safe zone” on your property. According to the Centers for Disease Control, you should:
- Remove leaf litter.
- Clear tall grasses and brush around homes and at the edge of lawns.
- Place a 3-ft wide barrier of wood chips or gravel between lawns and wooded areas to restrict tick migration into recreational areas.
- Mow the lawn frequently.
- Stack wood neatly and in a dry area (this discourages rodents).
- Keep playground equipment, decks, and patios away from yard edges and trees.
- Discourage unwelcome animals (such as deer, raccoons, and stray dogs) from entering your yard by constructing fences.
- Remove old furniture, mattresses, or trash from the yard that may give ticks a place to hide.
