Tick Control

Pet owners know the ongoing struggle of keeping ticks out of their homes. Yet even homes without a cat or dog can experience problems with ticks, especially if you deal with other pests like rodents or live near a wooded area. With many cases of tick-borne illnesses in New Jersey, it is important to keep your home, family and pets protected from ticks.

Ticks are a parasitic pest which feed off the blood of animals and humans. They are naturally found in wooded areas, grass, and brush and will attach themselves to house pets and other mammals. Pets, as well as rodents and other wildlife, can then bring ticks into your home.

After ingesting blood from animals, ticks can transmit diseases to humans. New Jersey especially is a hot spot for tick-borne illnesses.

Some of the common tick-borne diseases in our area include:

Symptoms of tick bites in humans can include fever or chills, itching, rash, pain, muscle aches, dizziness and fatigue. If you have been bitten by a tick and experience any of these symptoms, you should visit your doctor.

Seasonal, preventative pest control often treats for ticks to keep them from entering your property in the first place. When ticks become a problem on or around your property, we take an organic approach to treat and repel.

Other preventative measures can be taken for ticks. Homeowners can remove areas in their yard that attract pests. Tick preventatives and frequent grooming can help keep biting pests away from your pets and keep them from carrying ticks inside. Finally, keeping mice, rats, squirrels and other wildlife pests out of your home will also help prevent pests.
