Reclaim Your Outdoor Space

You shouldn’t have to choose between enjoying your yard and protecting your family from ticks. When tick control works, you get your outdoor life back.

No more checking everyone for ticks after being outside. No more avoiding the parts of your yard where ticks hide. No more worrying every time your kids or pets play in the grass.

Professional tick control eliminates the populations living on your property and creates barriers that keep new ticks from moving in. You’ll notice fewer ticks within days of treatment, and with ongoing maintenance, your yard stays protected through tick season.

West Collingswood Tick Control Experts

We Know New Jersey Ticks

We’ve been protecting South Jersey families from pest problems for years. We understand the tick species common to our area and know exactly where they hide on West Collingswood properties.

Ticks aren’t just a nuisance here – they’re a real health threat. New Jersey consistently ranks among the top states for Lyme disease cases, which makes professional tick control essential for families who want to use their yards safely.

We’re licensed, insured, and focused on treatments that work for our local conditions and tick populations.

Our Tick Control Process

How We Eliminate Your Tick Problem

First, we inspect your property to identify tick habitats and activity areas. Ticks prefer tall grass, leaf litter, brush areas, and the edges where your lawn meets wooded or overgrown areas.

Next, we apply targeted treatments to these high-risk zones using professional-grade products that eliminate existing ticks and prevent new infestations. We focus on the areas where ticks actually live and breed, not just random spraying.

Follow-up treatments maintain protection throughout tick season. Most properties need 3-4 treatments per year, timed with tick activity patterns, to stay protected. We’ll recommend a schedule that makes sense for your property and usage.

Complete Yard Tick Treatment

What's Included in Tick Control

Every tick control service starts with a thorough property assessment. We identify the specific areas where ticks are active and the conditions that attract them to your yard.

Treatment targets tick habitats with precision applications that eliminate adult ticks, nymphs, and larvae. We use products specifically chosen for tick control – not general pest sprays that might miss the target.

You’ll get specific recommendations for reducing tick-friendly conditions on your property, like managing vegetation and addressing moisture issues that ticks need to survive. Simple changes can make your yard much less attractive to ticks long-term.

How quickly does professional tick control start working?

You’ll typically see a significant reduction in tick activity within 24-48 hours after treatment. The products we use are designed to eliminate ticks on contact and provide residual protection that continues working for weeks. However, complete control may take 7-14 days as treatments reach ticks in all life stages and hiding spots throughout your property. The key is that tick populations start declining immediately, making your yard safer right away.

Is tick control treatment safe for children and pets?

Yes, when applied by licensed professionals using proper techniques and timing. We use products specifically approved for residential properties where children and pets are present. The treatment areas need to dry completely before family use – typically 2-4 hours depending on weather conditions. We’ll give you specific timing for when it’s safe to resume normal yard activities. Many of our clients have young children and pets, so safety is always our primary consideration in product selection and application methods.

How often do I need tick control treatments?

Most West Collingswood properties need 3-4 treatments per year for effective tick control. We typically recommend treatments in early spring (April), late spring/early summer (June), mid-summer (August), and sometimes early fall depending on your property’s tick pressure. Tick activity peaks from April through October in New Jersey, so timing treatments with their life cycle gives you the best protection. Properties with heavy wooded areas or those adjacent to undeveloped land may need more frequent treatments.

What areas of my yard do you treat for ticks?

We focus on the areas where ticks actually live and travel – not your entire lawn. This includes tall grass areas, brush and shrub beds, leaf litter, wood piles, and the transition zones between your lawn and wooded or overgrown areas. Ticks rarely venture into sunny, well-maintained lawn areas, so we concentrate treatments where they’re actually present. We also treat pathways and areas where your family and pets commonly walk, creating treated barriers that prevent tick contact.

Will tick control eliminate all ticks from my property?

Professional tick control dramatically reduces tick populations and provides significant protection, but complete elimination isn’t realistic for most properties. Ticks can migrate from neighboring areas, and some may survive in areas that are difficult to treat thoroughly. However, effective tick control reduces your tick encounters by 85-95%, which makes a huge difference in your family’s safety and outdoor enjoyment. The goal is making your yard safe to use, not achieving zero ticks, which isn’t practical in areas with natural tick populations.

Do I still need to check for ticks after professional treatment?

Yes, tick checks are still a good practice, especially if you’ve been in untreated areas or off your property. However, you should find far fewer ticks after professional treatment, and the constant worry about tick exposure in your own yard should be greatly reduced. Many clients tell us they finally feel comfortable letting their kids play outside without obsessive tick checking afterward. Professional tick control makes tick encounters much less likely, but it’s still smart to do quick checks after spending time in any outdoor areas, treated or not.
