Easy Tick Control Tips for a Safer Lawn
Professional intervention is crucial for effective fighting ticks and protecting your yard over time. However, when it comes to discouraging tick invasions and keeping their numbers lower, there are several things you can do on your own. Here’s a closer look at them and how they contribute to keeping your yard safer through the seasons:
Eliminate Mouse Habitats
Mice can bring a long list of problems into your yard, with ticks being one of them. These small critters are drawn to areas covered with clutter like rock piles, leaf litter, and stray branches, taking up shelter in them and setting up breeding grounds. Clearing this clutter out of your yard is an easy way to prevent mice from wandering onto your property and bringing tick populations with them.
Mow Your Grass
If your grass isn’t being mowed on a regular basis, it can eventually grow long enough to shelter ticks. Mowing prevents your grass from getting too long, keeping tick numbers lower while also bringing you a greener, better-looking lawn.
Create a Tick Barrier
If your yard is surrounded by tall grass or wooded areas, ticks can easily travel between the two. Establishing a barrier made of wood chips or long strips of tree bark can be an easy and effective way to deter ticks from coming over onto your property.
