Your Kids Play Outside Without Worry

You check your children for ticks every time they come inside. You avoid certain areas of your yard during peak season. You’ve tried sprays from the hardware store that barely make a dent.

Here’s what changes when ticks are actually controlled on your property. Your family uses the entire yard again. Evening barbecues happen without constant tick checks. Your dog runs through the grass without bringing passengers inside.

The difference is professional-grade treatment that targets ticks where they live and breed. We’re not just spraying the surface and hoping for the best. We’re eliminating tick populations at every stage of their lifecycle, creating a barrier that keeps new ticks from establishing territory on your property.

Our Tick Control Process

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we inspect your entire property to identify tick hotspots, breeding areas, and the specific species we’re dealing with. Different ticks require different approaches, and we tailor our treatment accordingly.

Next, we apply targeted treatments to areas where ticks live and reproduce. This includes tall grass, leaf litter, brush areas, and transition zones between your lawn and wooded areas. We use professional-grade products that eliminate existing ticks and prevent new infestations.

Finally, we establish a protective barrier around your property’s perimeter and high-traffic areas. This creates a buffer zone that stops ticks from migrating back onto your property from neighboring areas. We’ll schedule follow-up treatments as needed to maintain protection throughout tick season.

Complete Yard Tick Treatment

What's Included In Your Service

Your tick control service includes a thorough property assessment, identification of tick species and problem areas, and targeted treatment of all affected zones. We focus on areas where ticks naturally congregate and reproduce, not just where you see them.

We provide detailed recommendations for reducing tick habitat around your property. Simple changes to landscaping and maintenance can significantly reduce future tick pressure. You’ll know exactly what to do to keep ticks from coming back.

All treatments use EPA-approved products that are safe around children and pets when applied correctly. We time our applications for maximum effectiveness while minimizing any impact on your family’s outdoor activities. Most properties can be used normally within hours of treatment.

How quickly does professional tick control start working?

You’ll see a significant reduction in tick activity within 24-48 hours of treatment. However, complete control takes about a week as the treatment reaches ticks in all life stages. Some ticks may still be visible during the first few days as they emerge from hiding spots and come into contact with treated areas. The key difference you’ll notice is that tick encounters become rare instead of constant, and the ticks you do find are typically dying or already dead.
Yes, when applied by licensed professionals using proper techniques and timing. We use EPA-approved products and follow strict application guidelines that ensure safety around families and pets. Most treatments require keeping children and pets inside for 2-4 hours while the product dries, after which the treated areas are safe for normal use. We’ll give you specific instructions based on the products used and weather conditions on treatment day.
Professional tick control typically provides 4-6 weeks of protection, depending on weather conditions and tick pressure in your area. Heavy rain can reduce effectiveness, while dry conditions help treatments last longer. Most properties need 3-4 treatments per season to maintain consistent protection. We’ll recommend a schedule based on your specific situation and local tick activity patterns. Properties with heavy wooded areas or high wildlife traffic may need more frequent treatments.
We can dramatically reduce tick populations and keep them at manageable levels, but complete elimination isn’t realistic for most properties. Ticks can travel on wildlife and migrate from neighboring areas. The goal is to reduce your family’s exposure to near-zero levels and eliminate established breeding populations on your property. Most customers report going from multiple tick encounters per day to maybe finding one or two ticks per month after treatment.
Professional treatments use commercial-grade products that aren’t available to consumers and are applied with specialized equipment that ensures proper coverage and penetration. We also know exactly where to treat based on tick behavior and habitat preferences. DIY sprays typically only kill ticks on contact and don’t provide lasting protection or reach ticks in their hiding spots. Professional treatment creates a residual barrier that continues working for weeks, while store-bought products usually need reapplication every few days.
Early spring is ideal, typically March or April in New Jersey, before tick activity peaks. This allows us to target ticks as they become active and before they reproduce. However, tick control is beneficial any time during the season from spring through fall. Even mid-summer treatments provide significant relief and help prevent fall tick activity. If you’re dealing with ticks now, don’t wait until next season – current treatment will give you immediate relief and reduce next year’s tick pressure.
