Reclaim Your Outdoor Space

You shouldn’t have to choose between enjoying your yard and protecting your family from tick-borne diseases. When ticks are gone, you get your peace of mind back.

Your kids can run through the grass barefoot again. Your dog can explore every corner of the yard without you scanning for ticks afterward. You can garden, host barbecues, and actually relax on your own property.

New Jersey has some of the highest rates of Lyme disease in the country, and Deerwoods sits right in tick territory. But with the right tick control approach, your yard becomes the safe haven it should be—not a source of constant anxiety every time someone steps outside.

We Know New Jersey Ticks

86 Pest and Wildlife Removal has been protecting Deerwoods families from tick infestations for years. We understand exactly which tick species thrive in our area and where they’re most likely to set up camp on your property.

When you call us, you’re getting local expertise that comes from years of treating yards just like yours in neighborhoods throughout Deerwoods and the surrounding areas.

Our Tick Control Process

Simple, Thorough, Effective

First, we inspect your entire property to identify where ticks are hiding and breeding. This isn’t a quick walk-around—we check tall grass, leaf litter, wood piles, and anywhere else ticks love to hang out.

Next, we apply targeted treatments to these problem areas using professional-grade products that eliminate existing ticks and prevent new ones from moving in. We focus on the perimeter of your yard, transition zones between lawn and wooded areas, and any spots where your family and pets spend time.

Finally, we set up a prevention schedule that keeps ticks away long-term. Most properties need treatments every 6-8 weeks during tick season, but we’ll customize the timing based on your specific situation and the level of tick pressure in your area.

What You Get With Our Service

Our tick control service covers your entire property, not just the obvious problem spots. We treat the areas where ticks actually live and breed—along fence lines, around decks and patios, near playground equipment, and in any vegetation taller than your lawn.

You’ll get treatments that are safe for your family and pets but deadly effective against ticks. We use products specifically designed for tick control, not generic pesticides that might miss the mark.

Each visit includes a fresh assessment of your property because tick populations change with the seasons, weather, and what’s happening in the surrounding area. We adjust our approach based on what we find, not what worked last time.

How often do I need tick control treatments for my yard?

Most properties in Deerwoods need tick control treatments every 6-8 weeks during tick season, which typically runs from April through October. However, the exact timing depends on your specific situation—properties that back up to wooded areas or have heavy vegetation might need more frequent treatments, while well-maintained lawns with less tick habitat might need fewer. We’ll assess your property and recommend a schedule that makes sense for your yard and budget. The key is consistency during peak tick months when these pests are most active and pose the greatest risk to your family.

Is tick control treatment safe for my children and pets?

Yes, our tick control treatments are safe for children and pets when applied correctly by trained professionals. We use EPA-approved products specifically designed for residential tick control, and we follow strict application guidelines to ensure safety. Typically, we recommend keeping kids and pets inside during the actual treatment and for about 2-4 hours afterward while the product dries. Once dry, treated areas are safe for normal family activities. We always discuss any specific concerns you have about family members with allergies or sensitivities, and we can adjust our approach if needed.

What's the difference between DIY tick control and professional treatment?

Professional tick control uses commercial-grade products that aren’t available to consumers, and we have the training to apply them where they’ll be most effective. Store-bought tick sprays often provide only temporary relief and miss the areas where ticks actually live and breed. We know exactly where to look for tick habitat on your property and how to treat those areas properly. Plus, professional treatments last longer and are more targeted, so you’re not constantly reapplying products or wondering if you’ve covered all the right spots. The cost difference is often minimal when you factor in the time and repeated purchases of over-the-counter products.

How quickly will I see results after tick control treatment?

You’ll typically notice a significant reduction in tick activity within 24-48 hours after treatment. However, it can take up to a week to see the full effect as ticks that weren’t directly contacted during application encounter the treated areas. Keep in mind that you might still find an occasional tick for the first few days, especially if you have heavy vegetation or your property borders wooded areas where untreated ticks might wander in. The goal isn’t to create an impenetrable barrier overnight, but to dramatically reduce the tick population on your property and keep it low with regular treatments.

Do you guarantee your tick control treatments will work?

We stand behind our tick control treatments, but we’re also realistic about what to expect. Professional tick control dramatically reduces tick populations on your property, but it doesn’t create a magic force field that prevents every tick from ever setting foot on your lawn. Ticks can travel on wildlife, blow in during storms, or migrate from untreated neighboring properties. What we guarantee is that our treatments will significantly reduce tick activity when applied properly and on schedule. If you’re still seeing heavy tick activity a week after treatment, we’ll come back and reassess the situation at no charge.

What time of year should I start tick control treatments?

In New Jersey, tick control treatments should start in early spring, typically around April, before tick activity peaks. Ticks become active when temperatures consistently reach the mid-40s, and they’re most dangerous during their nymph stage in late spring and early summer. Starting treatments early gives you protection before ticks have a chance to establish themselves on your property. We usually recommend continuing treatments through October, as adult ticks can remain active well into fall during warm spells. The exact timing can vary based on weather patterns each year, but getting ahead of tick season is always better than playing catch-up once they’re already established.
