Long a familiar threat to Massachusetts\u2019 rural residents, Lyme Disease is rapidly becoming a health hazard in metropolitan Boston. Ten years ago, 130 counties were considered high risk for Lyme Disease; today, that number is 260. Scientists blame the increase on a number of factors, including increasingly extreme weather and the prevalence of deer, which carry ticks into some surprising parts of Boston.<\/p>\n

Lyme Disease is an extremely serious health condition, which can leave you or your children very ill for an extended period of time. Lyme Disease is a bacterial infection spread by deer ticks. Lyme Disease manifests with symptoms very similar to arthritis, with overall body pain and extreme fatigue.<\/p>\n

To prevent Lyme Disease, you want to avoid having your family exposed to ticks. Your Boston lawn care service<\/a> has a pivotal role to play here. Ticks are most prevalent in wooded areas and high grass; that being said, locally, we\u2019re seeing an increase of deer ticks in even well maintained Boston yards. While you can keep your kids out of the woods and high grass, it\u2019s pretty hard to say \u201cHey, kids, no playing in the back yard!\u201d<\/p>\n

Luckily, there is an alternative. Lawn Doctor\u2019s Yard Armor \u00ae Tick Control is designed to keep your yard safe and tick free. Having a tick control barrier installed by your Boston lawn care service<\/a> is a smart move. You\u2019ll enjoy greater peace of mind, knowing that ticks will want to stay out of your yard! An ongoing treatment routine ensures your protection never lapses, allowing your children to enjoy the yard throughout the summer and fall.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
