However, the consequences of tick bites can be serious. More than 300,000 new cases of Lyme disease are estimated to arise each year in the United States. Ticks carry Lyme disease and spread this illness to humans through their bites. Only through meticulous tick control and prevention measures can you have confidence your family in the James Island area is safe from ticks.<\/p>\n<p>To prevent a tick infestation on your lawn, partner with the team of experts at Lawn Doctor of Charleston.

In the meantime, check out our experts&#8217; more general tips below:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: disc;\"><strong>Make mowing your lawn a priority.\u00a0<\/strong>You may sometimes procrastinate on mowing your lawn. However, when you know your family&#8217;s health is at risk, you may be less likely to put this task on the back burner. A manicured lawn is much less likely to host ticks than tall grass, meaning maintaining well-sheared turf should always be a priority.<\/li>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: disc;\"><strong>Consider installing a deer fence.\u00a0<\/strong>If you live in an area where deer are present, you&#8217;ll want to take steps to keep them off\u00a0your property as they could bring ticks onto your lawn. Installing an eight-foot deer fence is one way to keep deer and any ticks hitching a ride on their backs away from your home.<\/li>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: disc;\"><strong>Get rid of mice and their habitats. <\/strong>Mice can also carry ticks, and ticks actually acquire Lyme disease from mice. Eliminating spaces where mice may hide and nest will help keep disease-spreading ticks at bay.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Protecting Families in James Island and Beyond<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In addition to taking the above steps, getting started with a professional tick control service can help you quickly decimate tick populations on your turf.<\/p>\n<p>Our professional services are a great option for homeowners located in:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">James Island<\/li>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">Charleston<\/li>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">Mt.
