Ticks carry Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, and other serious illnesses. We treat your property to protect your family, your children, and your pets.
(555) 000-0000The NY/NJ metro area has some of the highest rates of Lyme disease in the country. The blacklegged tick (deer tick) is the primary carrier, and it's established throughout Staten Island, Brooklyn, and New Jersey. It's not a rural problem — it's a backyard problem.
Nymph ticks — the size of a poppy seed — are responsible for most Lyme disease transmission because they're nearly impossible to spot. By the time you find one on your skin, it may have been feeding for hours.
We target the areas where ticks live and wait — not just the open lawn.
The border between your lawn and wooded or overgrown areas is the highest-risk zone. We apply residual acaricide (tick treatment) along these transition areas where ticks concentrate.
We treat ground-level vegetation, mulch beds, leaf litter, and low-hanging shrubs where ticks rest and quest for hosts. These areas harbor the majority of the tick population on any given property.
Two to three applications per season — spring, early summer, and fall — provide the most effective protection through the full active period. We schedule these automatically so you don't have to think about it.
Dogs and cats are constantly at risk from ticks in treated and untreated yards. Pets that go outside bring ticks inside — exposing children and adults who never set foot in a wooded area. Yard treatment combined with veterinarian-recommended tick prevention products for your pets provides the strongest protection.
We work with pet-safe application methods and timing so your animals aren't exposed during or immediately after treatment.
For properties adjacent to wooded areas, parks, or nature preserves — or any property where deer or wildlife are regularly seen — ongoing treatment through the active season provides the best results.
Our seasonal tick programs include scheduled applications at the right intervals to maintain a treated barrier around your property throughout peak tick season.
If you find a tick on a person or pet, photograph it before removing it. Different tick species carry different diseases — a photo helps us assess the risk level and confirm which species you're dealing with. Remove the tick with fine-tipped tweezers, pulling straight out without twisting.
