When your yard is left unprotected, it can quickly be taken over by invasive pests. Among all the pests that can show up in your yard, ticks are some of the most dangerous. These pests can carry a wide range of diseases, from Rocky Mountain spotted fever to Lyme disease. Because of the diseases they can carry, protecting your yard against these pests is crucial. With our proven approach to tick control, we protect our neighbors located all over the Hertford, NC area.
Tick Control Tips for a Safer Lawn
Effectively addressing tick infestations requires the precise application of tick control products, which is just one reason why it’s better left to the pros. However, there are a few simple lawn maintenance steps you can take on your own to discourage future infestations and make your yard less attractive to ticks. Here are a few of these steps:
Mowing Your Grass. The grass in your yard can become a haven for ticks if it’s not regularly mowed. Mowing your grass on a regular basis, in addition to keeping your yard greener and stronger through the seasons, can go a long way toward preventing ticks from taking over your home’s outdoor spaces.
Trimming Trees and Shrubs. Like grass, overgrown trees and shrubs can also attract ticks and provide them with breeding grounds. Keeping an eye on the foliage in your yard and trimming it when it starts getting too long is a great way to prevent tick infestations from popping up over time.
Tidying Up Debris. When debris like fallen branches and leaf litter starts to cover your yard, you may have a hard time keeping ticks at bay. These pests love underbrush and dark, damp spaces, which is why tidying up your yard is an effective step toward reducing potential tick hiding places and keeping your yard safer.
