What Life Looks Like Tick-Free

You’ll actually want to spend time in your backyard again. No more checking every inch of your kids after they play outside. No more panic when you find your dog scratching.

Your yard becomes the space it should be – where barbecues happen without worry, where your children can run barefoot through the grass, where you can garden without gloves and constant vigilance. The anxiety that comes with every outdoor activity just disappears.

That’s what effective tick control for your yard delivers. Not just fewer ticks – complete peace of mind that your property is protected from the diseases they carry. Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and other tick-borne illnesses become someone else’s problem, not yours.

We Know New Jersey Ticks

We at 86 Pest and Wildlife Removal have been protecting Greentree families from tick infestations for years. We understand exactly which tick species thrive in our area and when they’re most active.

New Jersey has some of the highest Lyme disease rates in the country. That’s not a statistic we take lightly. Every treatment we perform is designed specifically for the blacklegged ticks, American dog ticks, and lone star ticks that call our region home.

We’re licensed, insured, and focused on one thing: making your property safe for the people and pets you care about most.

Best Tick Control Process

How We Eliminate Your Tick Problem

First, we inspect your entire property to identify tick hotspots. Shaded areas, tall grass, leaf litter, and the edges where your lawn meets wooded areas – these are where ticks congregate and wait for hosts.

Next, we apply professional-grade treatments that target ticks at every life stage. Larvae, nymphs, and adults all get eliminated with products that are tough on ticks but safe for your family and pets. We focus on the areas where ticks actually live, not just spray randomly across your lawn.

Finally, we set up a maintenance schedule that keeps your property protected throughout tick season. Spring through fall, we monitor and retreat as needed so ticks never get the chance to re-establish themselves on your property.

Pest Control For Ticks

Complete Tick Protection Program

Our tick control service covers your entire property with targeted treatments that actually work. We use EPA-approved products that eliminate existing ticks while creating a barrier that prevents new ones from moving in.

You get detailed property mapping so we know exactly where to focus our efforts. Tick populations aren’t random – they concentrate in specific microclimates on your property. We identify these areas and treat them accordingly.

The service includes follow-up visits throughout the season because tick control isn’t a one-and-done solution. We monitor treatment effectiveness and adjust our approach based on weather conditions and tick activity levels in Greentree.

How long does professional tick control treatment last on my property?

Most professional tick treatments remain effective for 4-6 weeks under normal conditions. However, heavy rain, irrigation, and seasonal tick population surges can reduce this timeframe. That’s why we recommend treatments every 3-4 weeks during peak tick season (April through October) to maintain consistent protection. The initial treatment typically shows results within 24-48 hours, with maximum effectiveness reached after one week. We monitor your property and adjust the schedule based on tick activity levels and environmental factors specific to your Greentree location.

Is tick control treatment safe for my children and pets?

Yes, when applied by licensed professionals using EPA-approved products. We use targeted treatments that break down quickly in sunlight and don’t persist in the environment like older pesticides. Children and pets can typically return to treated areas within 2-4 hours after application, once surfaces are dry. We specifically choose products with low mammalian toxicity that are highly effective against ticks. Many of our treatments focus on tick harborage areas like mulch beds and property perimeters rather than open lawn areas where kids and pets spend most of their time.

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

Professional treatments use commercial-grade products with higher active ingredient concentrations that aren’t available to consumers. More importantly, we know exactly where to apply treatments for maximum effectiveness. Most DIY efforts fail because homeowners spray visible areas rather than the shaded, humid microclimates where ticks actually live and reproduce. We also treat for all tick life stages simultaneously, while most consumer products only affect adult ticks. Professional equipment ensures even coverage and proper penetration into tick habitat areas that handheld sprayers can’t reach effectively.

When is the best time to start tick control in New Jersey?

Early April, before tick activity peaks. In New Jersey, tick nymphs become active when soil temperatures consistently reach 45°F, which typically happens in mid-to-late April. Starting treatment before this point prevents the establishment of tick populations rather than trying to eliminate them after they’re already active. However, tick control can be effective any time during the season. If you’re starting mid-season, expect to see results within a week of the first treatment, with full population suppression achieved after the second application.

How do I know if my Greentree property has a tick problem?

The most reliable method is a tick drag test – pulling a white cloth through suspected tick habitat areas. If you find ticks on the cloth, you have an active population. Other indicators include finding ticks on family members or pets after yard activities, discovering ticks indoors that hitchhiked inside, or noticing ticks in areas where you spend time outdoors. Properties adjacent to wooded areas, with extensive landscaping, or with wildlife activity typically have higher tick populations. Even if you haven’t seen ticks, preventive treatment is often worthwhile given New Jersey’s high Lyme disease rates.

Will tick treatment harm beneficial insects like bees and butterflies?

Modern tick control treatments are designed to minimize impact on beneficial insects when applied correctly. We use targeted applications in tick habitat areas rather than broadcast spraying across flowering plants where pollinators feed. Many of our treatments break down quickly in sunlight, reducing exposure time for beneficial insects. We avoid treating during peak pollinator activity hours and can work around specific plants or garden areas you want to protect. The products we use have much lower toxicity profiles for bees and butterflies compared to ticks and other target pests, especially when applied according to label instructions by trained professionals.
