Lawn Doctor of Rhode Island offers powerful tick control using commercial-grade products and application equipment. You’ll get proven and long-lasting protection so that you can enjoy life outside once again.
How Our Tick Control Works
Ticks are parasites that get onto your lawn by hitching a ride on the coats of animals; dogs, cats, deer, and mice, to name a few. They then hide in cool, shady spots, searching for their next meal. Some are infected with a dangerous disease and, if they bite, can transmit that illness. Instead of worrying, let Lawn Doctor of Rhode Island help with tick control services.
We offer a comprehensive approach to controlling these pests that works by:
- Destroying ticks and reducing their numbers. Our team will treat your property using products that are time-tested and proven to rid it of ticks. We use professional application equipment, which allows us to offer effective control and best-in-class protection.
- Returning to provide barrier sprays. We’ll return to your property at timed intervals to provide additional barrier sprays. This ensures that your family and four-legged friends are protected from the potential threat of tick bites. You can eat, drink, and be merry outside without always having to think twice about ticks.
- Offering preventative steps and advice. We’ll explain how ticks enter your lawn and where they’re hiding. We’ll then provide practical, easy steps to eliminate these areas, making your lawn far less tick-friendly.
What Makes Ticks Such a Threat?
Wondering why these tiny arachnids are such a big deal? Here are a few facts every homeowner should know about ticks:
- Disease-filled bites. Tick species in the United States carry over 15 different infectious diseases, including Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever. These ailments can cause serious health issues for humans and our household pets.
- Targeted attacks. These arachnids live off of the blood of animals, including people. They target us with their attacks, scurrying across your yard to climb up your leg and bite your soft flesh. Once attached, they will drain your blood and inject toxins into your body. If they can remain attached for over a day, they can potentially infect you with a disease.
- Abundant breeding. One of the most stressful facts about ticks is that they create a staggering number of offspring. A single female tick can produce 8,000 eggs at a time. Those eggs only need about two to three weeks to fully develop, so you’ll have a massive infestation on your hands in no time.
- Stealthy nature. Ticks are silent and stealthy, hiding out among the vegetation in your yard and waiting for their chance to attack. Also, their bites are not painful or itchy, so you may not even notice you’ve been bitten.
