Tick Control in Hockessin

A wide range of different pests can make their way into your outdoor spaces. However, among all these nuisances, ticks are some of the most harmful. While recipients of tick bites generally don’t notice a bite, these pests can transmit Lyme Disease, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, and a handful of other harmful diseases, so protecting your yard from these pests is essential. And that’s where our team comes in. Our proven tick control protects our neighbors all over Hockessin and the Wilmington, DE, area from these pests.

How Our Tick Control Protects Hockessin Area Residents

To effectively protect local lawns from invasive ticks, our team utilizes three distinct steps. Here’s a closer look at each of these steps and why they work together to bring comprehensive tick control to homeowners:

Prevention

The first step to protecting local lawns from ticks is prevention. This involves managing your outdoor spaces in a way that makes them less appealing to the animals that bring ticks onto your property. Reducing clutter and eliminating potential hiding spaces goes a long way toward helping you avoid tick infestations in the future.

Control

In this step, our team utilizes a full range of advanced tick treatments to quickly and effectively eliminate active tick populations. With just one treatment, we can significantly reduce tick numbers and help you get back to feeling comfortable spending time in your home’s outdoor spaces.

Ongoing Protection

It takes an ongoing approach to keeping ticks at bay. By applying our treatments consistently, we can bring you lasting protection from these invasive pests. We’ll work with you to schedule a treatment plan that works around your needs while also maximizing protection.

Our Long-Term LD Tick Control Programs

Ticks can creep into your yard throughout a large portion of the year, which is why it’s important to have a continuous tick control program in place. With our ongoing LD pest control program, you can skip the headaches of constantly arranging pest control and get the protection you can depend on from season to season. We’ll also help you recognize new risk factors as they pop up to help you keep numbers under control between treatments.

Why are Ticks Such a Problem?

Ticks are silent and stealthy pests that lurk in the shade beneath your trees and vegetation. So, why should you take action to get rid of these creatures? Let’s take a look:

Ticks target people and pets. These arachnids survive on the blood of humans, dogs, cats, and other animals, so their attacks are not random.
Ticks spread disease. When these creatures bite, they attach to your body and consume your blood. In doing so, they release toxins into your body, potentially infecting you with disease.
They multiply rapidly. Female ticks can produce thousands of offspring at once, and those eggs only take a couple of weeks to fully mature.
