There is nothing worse than glancing down at your skin after outdoor play and discovering a tick or tick bite. Outdoor time should be spent creating memories, not worrying about ticks and the diseases they transport. If you’re noticing ticks around your yard, then Mosquito Joe of DuPage County is here to help!
Why Should You Consider Tick Control?
Tick Control for the Whole Family
Parents and pet owners are both concerned with tick prevention techniques due to the severe effects that ticks can have on loved ones. Five of the ten diseases transmitted by ticks to humans can also be transmitted to our four-legged friends. As a result, Mosquito Joe of DuPage County takes great pride in our mosquito control services, ensuring that your family and pets can return to enjoying the outdoors.
Tips on Tick Prevention
However, your best defense against ticks is to contact the Mosquito Joe of the DuPage County team today. We will come out and spray your yard to create a barrier against these bothersome intruders. Since our barrier sprays target shrubbery, we already zone in on where ticks live and wait.
Ticks cannot jump or fly. They can only crawl. Ticks will wait for their next host from the tips of grasses and shrubs. When brushed by a moving animal or person, they quickly let go of the vegetation and climb onto the host. To avoid this from happening, there are several prevention methods that can be used for avoiding ticks:
-
Know where ticks hang out in your yard – your Mosquito Joe technician can also show you the exact areas where ticks breed and live.
-
Avoid heavily wooded and/or brushy areas in general.
-
Use scents such as lemon, rosemary, or lavender on exposed parts of the skin.
-
Avoid being outside between the hours of 6 am and noon.
