Tick infestations are a pain for several reasons. Some of the biggest reasons why these pests are a hassle to have around are their ability to latch onto your skin and their ability to transmit dangerous diseases like Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever and Lyme Disease. It’s important to keep these pests at bay, but you first need to determine if they’ve crept into your yard in the first place. We’ll go through some tips below to help you identify tick infestations. And to fight off these pests, choose the proven tick yard treatment we offer to Longs, SC area homeowners and businesses.
Here are a few easy steps you can take to determine if ticks have made their way onto your property:
Dragging for Ticks
One of the simplest ways to check your yard for ticks is by dragging it for ticks. To take this step, simply take a light-colored towel or sheet and drag it around your yard, paying extra attention to the covered, shaded areas that ticks often frequent. Once you’ve covered a large enough area, take the towel or sheet over to your driveway or to your sidewalk to check it for ticks.
Checking Your Pets
Pets are common targets for ticks. When you make checking your pets’ paws and fur for ticks part of your day-to-day routine, you can spot these pests when they show up while also helping to keep your furry friends protected from them.
Searching Common Tick Hideouts
Simply looking around for ticks is also an option. To find ticks on your property, bring a flashlight and check dark, covered areas like shrubs, tall grass, and retaining walls.
