Ticks are common in tall grasses and wooded areas, but they can easily be found near homes as well, hitching a ride on field mice, deer, dogs, and even people. Bites from ticks can cause serious diseases in both dogs and humans, the most prevalent being Lyme disease, a long-term debilitating illness that can be difficult to detect and treat.

We feature a multi-pronged tick control regimen that targets every stage of their life cycle, from egg to adult.

How to Determine If You Have a Tick Problem in Morrell Park

The only real way to determine if you have a tick problem is to be vigilant. If you, a family member, or a pet spend a lot of time outdoors, especially in grassy or wooded areas, it is important to check thoroughly for ticks after returning home. Ticks can be as small as a poppy seed and can attach anywhere on your body. Thoroughly examine your skin after each outing and use a tick spoon or tweezers to carefully remove any you find. If the bite area becomes inflamed or develops a rash, have it examined by a doctor. For pets, it will be necessary to inspect for ticks more thoroughly, moving aside hair and checking between toes.

What Causes Tick Problems?

Early in a tick’s life cycle, it feeds on small animals like mice, while later, it feeds on larger animals, including deer. Tick problems are caused when any of these host animals are attracted to your property. For mice, this means an abundance of food and cozy nesting locations in or near your home, while deer enjoy grassy or wooded areas that may adjoin your property.

How to Prevent Tick Problems

To prevent ticks, you must discourage the wildlife that carry them from spending too much time near your home. Here are a few tips that can help:

  • Avoid feeding wild animals near your home, including deer.
  • Clean up spilled bird feed or pet food in outdoor locations.
  • Use secure trash cans to keep rodents out.
  • Seal the exterior of your home to keep mice from nesting inside.
  • Clean up debris in your yard like leaves, firewood, and trash.
  • Keep grass short and remove debris from woody or grassy yard edges.
  • Keep furniture and outdoor toys away from grassy or woody areas.

Finally, if you have a rodent problem, it is important to address that to minimize tick problems.
