Targeted Tick Elimination Services
Ticks, those tiny arachnids, barely larger than a pinhead, can wreak havoc on your outdoor activities. As a part of the spider family, these eight-legged creatures feed on the blood of their hosts, making spring and summer encounters potentially problematic.
The Threat of Tick-Borne Diseases
Beyond being bloodsuckers, ticks are infamous for transmitting severe and potentially life-threatening diseases to humans. Some of the tick-borne illnesses recognized by the CDC include
- Anaplasmosis
- Colorado tick fever
- Bourbon virus
- Borrelia mayonii
- Lyme disease
- Heartland virus
- Rocky Mountain spotted fever (RMSF)
- Rickettsia parkeri rickettsiosis
- Powassan disease
- Tick Borne relapsing fever (TBRF)
Fascinating Tidbits About Ticks
Did you know ticks possess remarkable perceptiveness? These tiny creatures can sense breath, heat, moisture, body odor, and vibrations, aiding them in locating the ideal spot to await their next host. Moreover, ticks exhibit survival prowess, enduring freezing temperatures, with blacklegged ticks remaining active even when the temperature drops below 35 °F and snow covers the ground.
Understanding Tick Types
Ticks fall into two main categories: hard-shell ticks and soft-shell ticks. The greater threat lies with hard-shell ticks, which remain resilient even when stepped upon. Common tick species in North America include:
- American Dog Tick (Wood Tick)
- Brown Dog Tick
- Blacklegged Tick (Deer Tick)
- Lone Star Tick
- Gulf Coast Tick
Acquisition of Ticks: How It Happens
Ticks can latch onto you, your clothes, or your pet’s fur while enjoying a sunny day outdoors. Additionally, ticks can enter indoors by hitchhiking on mice or rats. Stray animals like raccoons, deer, or opossums may introduce ticks to your pets, providing ticks with access to you.
Achieving a Tick-Free Yard
Your yard may be a silent hotspot for ticks waiting to pounce. Follow CDC guidelines to ensure your outdoor space remains tick-free:
- Regularly clear leaf litter.
- Mow your lawn frequently.
- Trim tall bushes and grasses around the lawn and homes.
- Establish a 3-feet wide barrier of gravel or wood chips between wooded areas and your lawn.
- Avoid providing a habitat for rodents by neatly stacking wood in a dry area.
- Remove old mattresses, furniture, or trash from the yard.
- Keep decks, playground equipment, and patios away from trees and yard edges.
- Construct fences to discourage entry by stray animals.
