In addition, those eggs only require a couple of weeks to reach full maturity, so their infestation can massively expand in no time at all.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Targeted attacks. <\/strong>These creatures live off the blood of humans and other animals and even have special senses that help them find their next victim.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Infectious diseases. <\/strong>Ticks spread Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and other illnesses that affect humans and our pets.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Potential hotspots. <\/strong>Ticks can be found in shaded areas underneath excess foliage, including woods, tall grass, bushes, and more.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dealing with bites. <\/strong>When ticks bite their victims, they will remain attached to the skin, drawing blood and spreading toxins. But they need to remain attached for at least a day and a half to infect you with disease, so you have time to remove them calmly. Be sure to use a pair of tweezers and remove the entire body, carefully destroying the tick once it&#8217;s removed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Expert Tick Control in Stamford Backed Up by Our Satisfaction Guarantee<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>When you sign up for LD Tick Control services from\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Fairfield County and Westchester County, you can expect thorough and efficient service that always delivers great results.
