Mosquito Joe of Burlington not only rids your yard of biting mosquitoes, but we take care of ticks too! Did you know that ticks will arrive before mosquitoes and hang around after the mosquitoes are gone? Ticks arrive once the ground temperature is above 45 degrees Fahrenheit, so it’s important to have a plan in place in advance.
Tick Prevention
With help from Mosquito Joe of Burlington, you can get ahead of any tick issues on your property this season by implementing the following habits:
-
Keep grass mowed and trees trimmed.
-
Move woodpiles away from the home.
-
Keep pets out of thickly wooded areas where tick activity is high.
-
Move swing sets, sandboxes, and other play areas away from wooded areas.
-
Wear long sleeves and pants when walking in wooded or grassy areas to avoid tick bites.
-
Wash clothing immediately after coming inside and inspect kids and pets for ticks.
-
Use professional outdoor pest control services to protect your yard from ticks and mosquitoes.
Ticks cannot jump or fly, they can only crawl. They sit on the tips of grass and shrubs while waiting for hosts. When brushed by a moving animal or person, ticks quickly let go of the vegetation and climb onto the host. To avoid this, use prevention methods to keep ticks out of your yard and let Mosquito Joe of Burlington spray your yard and set up a barrier for these intruders. Since our barrier sprays target shrubs, we already zone in on where ticks live while waiting for a host.
To avoid the host being you, let us be another line of defense against tick-borne illnesses. Call us today at 802-483-3780 or fill out a form to the right for a free quote.
