Here&#8217;s how you can help to make your yard less tick-friendly:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Consistently trim your trees and plants.\u00a0<\/strong>Ticks not only prefer shaded habitats, they also require shade to lay their eggs. So, anything you can do to reduce shade in your yard will help to reduce the risk of a tick infestation. The easiest way to significantly reduce shaded habitats, is to keep up with regular tree trimming.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Maintain a clutter-free space.\u00a0<\/strong>To continue your shade-reducing efforts, you should remain vigilant when it comes to removing clutter from your yard. These pests can use children&#8217;s toys, tools, or anything else that creates shade to set up a home on your property. A simple rule is that if it doesn&#8217;t need to be in your yard, remove it right away.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Create a barrier.<\/strong> Ticks hate direct sunlight, so your goal should be to force any incoming ticks to endure a sun-exposed path in order to enter your yard. You can do this by creating a three-foot wide barrier around the edges of your property using wood chips or gravel. This type of barrier can be particularly effective if your property is next to a wooded area.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Hassle-Free Tick Control in Harrisburg<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>By keeping up with basic DIY tactics and securing our expert service, you can keep these awful pests away. Our treatments include comprehensive property inspections to destroy tick offspring and\u00a0insecticide spray services to eradicate adult ticks and keep future colonies away from your yard.
