Tick Extermination: Keeping Your Environment Tick-Free

Ticks are not just annoying pests; they can also transmit diseases such as Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever. It is crucial to take action to eliminate ticks from your environment and create a safe, tick-free zone.

Understanding Ticks

Ticks are parasitic arachnids that belong to the family Ixodidae. They are ectoparasites, meaning they live on the external surface of their hosts and feed on their blood. Ticks have a unique life cycle, consisting of four stages: egg, larva, nymph, and adult. They require a blood meal at each stage to develop and reproduce. Ticks are commonly found in grassy and wooded areas and can attach themselves to humans and animals, causing discomfort and posing health risks.

Common Tick Species

There are several species of ticks found worldwide, but a few are particularly common and known to infest humans and animals. The most prevalent tick species include:

Blacklegged Tick (Ixodes scapularis): Also known as the deer tick, it is a carrier of Lyme disease and commonly found in wooded areas.
American Dog Tick (Dermacentor variabilis): These ticks are commonly found in grassy areas and can transmit diseases such as Rocky Mountain spotted fever and tularemia.
Brown Dog Tick (Rhipicephalus sanguineus): These ticks primarily infest dogs and can transmit diseases to both humans and animals.
Lone Star Tick (Amblyomma americanum): Found primarily in the southeastern and eastern United States, it can transmit diseases like ehrlichiosis and southern tick-associated rash illness (STARI).

Erik had the most reasonable price and came out the next day to spray as I was expecting visitors for the weekend and I didn't want them sleeping with bed bugs yukk.... Erik said it would take at least a month for the bed bugs to be cleared but after the one spray it seems like it did the job. Thanks so much Erik for helping me in a pinch. Will definitely call again if need be"
