Our Tick Control Process

Simple Process, Lasting Results

We start with a thorough inspection of your property to identify tick hot spots – those shady, moist areas where they love to hang out. We’re looking at your property line, under decks, around stone walls, and anywhere your yard meets wooded areas.

Next, we apply targeted treatments to these problem areas using professional-grade products that eliminate ticks at every stage of their lifecycle. We’re not just spraying randomly – we’re hitting the spots where ticks actually live and breed.

Finally, we set up a maintenance schedule that keeps your property protected throughout tick season. Most of our customers opt for treatments every 6-8 weeks from spring through fall, which gives you continuous protection when ticks are most active. You’ll get a call before each visit, and we’ll adjust our approach based on what we’re seeing on your property.

What You Get With Our Service

Our tick control service covers your entire property, not just the obvious problem areas. We treat the perimeter where ticks typically enter from neighboring properties, focus on transition zones between your lawn and garden beds, and target the shaded areas where ticks thrive.

You’ll receive treatments that are safe for your family and pets but deadly effective against ticks. We use EPA-approved products applied by trained technicians who understand exactly how much to use and where to apply it for maximum effectiveness.

Between visits, we’re available if you notice tick activity returning to any areas. We don’t consider the job done until you’re completely satisfied with the results. Most customers see a dramatic reduction in tick populations within the first week, and with regular treatments, many go entire seasons without finding a single tick on their property.

How quickly does tick control treatment start working?

You’ll typically see a significant reduction in tick activity within 3-7 days of treatment. The products we use are designed to eliminate ticks on contact while also providing residual protection that continues working for weeks. However, it’s important to understand that tick control is an ongoing process, not a one-time fix. Ticks can migrate onto your property from neighboring areas, which is why we recommend regular treatments throughout the season. Most customers notice they can use their yards comfortably again within a week of their first treatment.
Yes, our tick control treatments are safe for your family and pets when applied correctly by trained professionals. We use EPA-approved products and follow strict application guidelines to ensure safety. We typically recommend keeping children and pets inside during application and until the treated areas are dry, which usually takes 2-4 hours depending on weather conditions. Once dry, the treated areas are safe for normal use. We can also discuss organic or reduced-risk treatment options if you have specific concerns about chemical sensitivity.
Most properties in the Bishops area need treatments every 6-8 weeks during tick season, which runs from April through October in New Jersey. The exact frequency depends on your property’s specific conditions – heavily wooded lots or properties adjacent to natural areas may need more frequent treatments. We’ll assess your property and recommend a schedule that provides consistent protection without over-treating. Many customers start with monthly treatments in spring when tick activity peaks, then space them out to every 6-8 weeks through summer and fall.
We focus on the areas where ticks actually live and travel, not just spray your entire lawn randomly. This includes the perimeter of your property, transition zones between lawn and garden beds, areas under decks and porches, around stone walls or wood piles, and shaded spots where moisture tends to collect. We also treat pathways that connect these areas since ticks use them to move around your property. We don’t typically need to treat sunny, dry lawn areas since ticks avoid these spots. Our technicians will walk your property during the initial visit to identify the specific areas that need attention.
While we can’t guarantee you’ll never see another tick (since they can always migrate from untreated neighboring properties), our treatments typically reduce tick populations by 85-95% when maintained regularly. Most customers go from finding multiple ticks weekly to rarely seeing any at all. If you notice tick activity returning between scheduled treatments, we’ll come back to reassess and re-treat problem areas at no additional charge. The key is maintaining consistent treatments throughout the season – gaps in service allow tick populations to rebuild quickly.
Preparation is minimal, but a few simple steps help us do our job more effectively. We ask that you mow your lawn within a day or two before treatment since shorter grass allows better product penetration and makes it easier for us to access problem areas. Remove any toys, lawn furniture, or other items from areas we’ll be treating, and let us know if you have any pets that spend time in specific areas of your yard. If you have bird feeders or pet food dishes in treatment areas, we’ll ask you to remove them temporarily. We’ll provide specific preparation instructions when we schedule your appointment.
