Tick infestations turn your yard into a health hazard, as these harmful pests can carry dangerous diseases like Rocky Mountain spotted fever and Lyme disease. Fighting these pests on your own is tough, and it can require more time and resources than you may have at your disposal. At Lawn Doctor of SE Mercer & Middlesex County, we use proven tick control solutions to bring safer lawns to our neighbors in New Brunswick, NJ and the surrounding communities.
Tick Control Tips for a Safer Lawn
Effectively addressing active tick infestations and placing a protective barrier between your yard and future infestations takes a professional touch. However, there are a handful of simple lawn maintenance tasks you can complete on your own to take away tick hiding places and keep numbers lower over time. Here’s a brief explanation of some of these steps:
Regularly Mowing Grass. Mowing grass is not only a great way to keep your yard lush and green, but it’s also a great way to prevent tick infestations. When your grass grows too long, it can become a haven for these harmful pests. Regularly mowing your grass to an appropriate length will keep these pests from taking shelter inside it.
Trimming Greenery. Trimming the greenery in your yard is another great way to take away potential hiding places and breeding grounds for ticks. By trimming the shrubs, bushes, hedges, and trees in your yard, you can improve your lawn’s overall look while also making it less attractive to neighborhood tick populations.
Cleaning Up Debris. Debris like stray branches and leaf litter can accumulate in your yard if you’re not regularly tidying up. In addition to making your lawn look unkempt, this debris can attract all sorts of pests. Picking up your yard after rainfall and strong winds can go a long way toward keeping tick populations under control.
