When ticks infiltrate your outdoor spaces, they can turn birthday parties, barbecues, and playing outside with your pets into events that end in ankles covered in these dangerous pests. Because of their invasive nature and their ability to carry harmful diseases like Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever, effectively managing tick populations is a lawn care essential. With our proven approach to tick control, we bring top-notch protection to lawns located all over the York, PA area.
Tick Control Tips to Keep Your Yard Safer
Effectively addressing active tick populations requires potent treatments and a comprehensive pest control system. However, there are several quick and simple steps you can take on your own that will make your outdoor spaces less attractive to ticks and keep their numbers lower through the seasons. Here’s a closer look at some of these steps:
Keeping Your Yard Tidy. Debris like leaf litter and collections of twigs can easily accumulate in your yard if you’re not regularly tidying up. By clearing away this and other debris, you can reduce the number of hiding places ticks have to choose from in your outdoor spaces while also improving your lawn’s overall health and appearance.
Trimming Greenery. Like leaf litter and underbrush, trees and bushes can attract ticks and provide them with shelter if they’re left to grow wild. Trimming the trees, shrubs, hedges, bushes, and other greenery in your yard prevents ticks from taking up residence inside them and discourages future infestations from popping up.
Mowing Your Grass to the Correct Length. When the grass in your yard gets too long, it can harbor ticks and provide them with breeding grounds. This can be dangerous, especially in areas with high foot traffic. Mowing your grass to the appropriate length will boost your lawn’s health while effectively keeping tick populations from using it as a place to hide.
