There’s a wide variety of pests that can take up residence in your outdoor spaces. However, because they can carry dangerous diseases like Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever, ticks are some of the most dangerous of these pests. Getting these pests out of your yard and keeping them out on your own can be tough. At Lawn Doctor of Central Virginia, we utilize a proven tick control system to protect lawns located all over the Lynchburg VA area.
Tick Control Tips for a Safer Lawn
Eradicating tick populations and keeping your yard protected from these pests in the long run requires a dedicated, professional system. However, there are a few easy lawn maintenance steps you can take on your own to keep tick numbers lower from season to season. Here’s a closer look at some of these steps and how they can help keep your yard safer over time:
Trimming Your Trees and Shrubs. Ticks seek out spaces that are dark and secluded to hide and breed, which is why they often target overgrown foliage. Trimming the trees, shrubs, hedges, and other greenery in your yard is an easy way to discourage tick infestations while also improving the overall appearance of your home’s outdoor spaces. This maintenance step is crucial when your entryways and areas with a lot of foot traffic have greenery nearby.
Mowing Your Grass. While the grass covering your yard generally won’t get long enough to harbor ticks, they can certainly move in if it’s left unattended. Mowing your grass routinely not only keeps your lawn looking healthier and greener through the seasons, but it also prevents ticks from mounting a full-scale invasion on your outdoor areas.
