DIY Tips To Supplement Our Expert Tick Treatments in Austin

Ticks are scary pests that spread disease and cause serious health concerns for dogs and cats. With a threat this serious, it makes sense to take advantage of every method of protection. Here are some ways you can improve your defense from ticks:

• Reduce your exposed skin. Ticks attack by crawling up the legs of their victims and finding a soft spot to bite. In the worst-case scenario in which a tick actually crawls onto your body, you can reduce your chances of tick-borne illness simply by reducing your exposed skin. Cover your feet with close-toed shoes and socks whenever you’re outdoors. Use hats, long-sleeved shirts, and other garments to limit the potential for tick bites.
• Create a barrier. Once our treatment has been applied to your yard, you can take advantage of this time and set up a barrier around your perimeter. Use wood chips or gravel and create a three-foot buffer zone. This way, any incoming ticks from the treeline will have to walk across this barrier to enter your yard. Since ticks love the shade, they are unlikely to make the trip across such an exposed surface.
• Minimize shaded habitats. Keep your grass, trees, and shrubs trimmed to reduce shady habitats where ticks can live.
• Inspect your pets. Inspect your pets regularly for small, hard lumps on their skin. If you find any attached ticks, remove them and destroy them immediately.
