Glen Oaks Tick Control Experts

We Know New Jersey Ticks

We’ve been handling pest problems throughout the Glen Oaks area for years. We understand exactly which tick species you’re dealing with here – deer ticks, dog ticks, and lone star ticks all call New Jersey home.

We’re not some national chain that treats every property the same way. We know when ticks are most active in our climate, where they hide on Long Island properties, and what actually works to eliminate them long-term.

You’re working with licensed professionals who live and work in the communities we serve. We see the same tick problems you do.

Our Tick Control Process

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we inspect your entire property to identify tick hotspots – those shaded, moist areas where they love to hang out. We’re looking at your landscaping, wood piles, tall grass areas, and anywhere your pets spend time.

Next, we apply targeted treatments to these problem areas using professional-grade products that actually eliminate ticks at multiple life stages. We’re not just spraying randomly – we’re treating the areas where ticks live and breed.

We focus on the perimeter of your property and create a protective barrier that stops ticks from migrating into your yard from neighboring areas. The treatment continues working for weeks, not days, giving you extended protection during peak tick season.

Comprehensive Yard Tick Treatment

What's Included in Your Service

Your tick control service covers your entire property – front yard, backyard, landscaped areas, and property perimeter. We treat the areas where ticks actually live, not just spray everywhere and hope for the best.

You get treatments that target all tick life stages, from larvae to adults. Many companies only kill adult ticks, which means you’ll have problems again in a few weeks when the next generation emerges.

We also provide you with practical advice about reducing tick habitat on your property. Simple changes to landscaping and maintenance can make a huge difference in preventing future infestations. You’ll know exactly what to look for and how to keep your property less attractive to ticks year-round.

How often do I need tick control treatments in Glen Oaks?

Most Glen Oaks properties need treatments every 6-8 weeks during tick season, which runs from April through October in New Jersey. The exact timing depends on your property’s specific conditions – heavily wooded lots or areas with deer activity might need more frequent service. We typically recommend starting treatments in early spring before tick activity peaks, then maintaining protection through fall. Properties with ongoing tick pressure from neighboring wooded areas often benefit from monthly treatments during peak season.
Yes, when applied by licensed professionals using EPA-approved products. We use targeted application methods that minimize exposure while maximizing effectiveness against ticks. Children and pets should stay off treated areas until they’re dry, which usually takes 2-4 hours depending on weather conditions. Once dry, the treated areas are safe for normal family activities. We always discuss any specific concerns about pets or family members with sensitivities before treatment, and we can adjust our approach if needed.
We control all tick species common to the Glen Oaks area, including deer ticks (which carry Lyme disease), American dog ticks, and lone star ticks. Deer ticks are the biggest concern here because they’re small, active year-round during mild weather, and responsible for most Lyme disease cases in New Jersey. Our treatments target the specific habits and lifecycle of each species. We know where each type prefers to live on your property and when they’re most active throughout the year.
You’ll see a significant reduction in tick activity within 24-48 hours of treatment. However, you might still find some ticks for the first week as they move through treated areas and die off. Complete control typically takes 7-10 days as the treatment reaches ticks in all their hiding spots. The residual protection continues working for 6-8 weeks, killing ticks that enter your property during that time. Remember that ticks can travel from neighboring properties, so ongoing protection is important in areas with high tick populations like ours.
We stand behind our work with a service guarantee. If you’re still seeing significant tick activity 2 weeks after treatment, we’ll return to re-treat problem areas at no additional charge. However, tick control isn’t a one-and-done solution – these pests continuously move onto properties from surrounding areas, especially in wooded communities like Glen Oaks. That’s why we recommend seasonal protection programs rather than single treatments. Consistent protection gives you the best results and the most value for your investment.
DIY tick control rarely provides the thorough, lasting results you need to actually solve a tick problem. Store-bought sprays might kill some adult ticks temporarily, but they don’t address tick larvae and nymphs, don’t provide residual protection, and often miss the areas where ticks actually live and breed. Professional treatments use commercial-grade products applied with proper equipment to ensure complete coverage. We also know exactly where to look for tick habitat on your property and how to create protective barriers that prevent re-infestation from neighboring areas.
