Safely enjoying your outdoor spaces from season to season requires the management of certain pests. Among all the pests that can creep into your outdoor spaces and call them home, ticks can present the biggest threat. By carrying Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever and Lyme Disease, these pests can pose a serious health risk to you, your family, and your pets. With our comprehensive tick control solutions, we keep these pests out of Monroe area lawns.
Tick Control Tips for Safer Outdoor Spaces
While it takes a professional approach and precision-driven applications to effectively get rid of active tick infestations and protect against future invasions, there are some steps you can take yourself to keep tick numbers lower over time. Below, we’ll highlight some of these steps and give you a closer look at how they keep your yard safer.
Mowing Grass
While grass generally doesn’t provide enough shade and moisture for ticks to call it home, they can comfortably move in if it’s allowed to grow too long. Regularly mowing your lawn not only keeps your grass healthier, but it also prevents ticks from taking it over and using it as breeding grounds.
Cutting Back Foliage
The foliage in your yard, like grass, can easily attract and provide shelter to invading tick populations if it’s not trimmed regularly. Keeping up with the maintenance of your trees, shrubs, hedges, and bushes, can go a long way towards preventing your yard from getting taken over by ticks.
Cleaning Up Debris
Debris like twigs, fallen branches, and leaf litter is a paradise for ticks, which is why it’s crucial to keep your yard tidy. Simply clearing your yard of this debris whenever you’re already outside mowing or watering your plants is an easy way to reduce the number of hiding spots available to these pests.
