Your outdoor spaces can be infiltrated by a wide range of different pests, but some of these pests can pose more of a health risk than others. Due to their ability to carry Rocky Mountain spotted fever and Lyme disease, ticks can pose a serious threat to you, your family, and your pets. At Lawn Doctor of Virginia Beach, we utilize cutting-edge tick control solutions to get these pests out of North Virginia Beach lawns and keep them out in the long run.
Tick Control Tips for Safer Outdoor Spaces
While fighting ticks and effectively guarding your yard from future infestations are jobs for our team of professionals, there are a few simple steps you can take during regular lawn maintenance to keep tick numbers down over time. Here are a few of these steps and how they make your yard less attractive to invading ticks:
Mowing Grass. If it’s left to grow wild, the grass in your yard can attract ticks and a long list of other pests. Mowing your grass on a regular basis will reduce the number of hiding spaces these pests have in your outdoor spaces while also improving your yard’s overall health and appearance.
Trimming Foliage. The foliage in your yard, just like your grass, can be a magnet for ticks if it’s not effectively maintained. Trimming back the shrubs, trees, hedges, and other greenery in your yard gives your outdoor spaces a well-kept look while also preventing them from being taken over by tick populations.
Cleaning Up Debris. Piles of fallen branches and leaf litter provide ticks with their preferred breeding grounds, as these pests love dark, damp places. Simply picking up any debris after rainfall and strong winds is a quick and easy way to prevent infestations.
