Tick Control Companies Westmont NJ

We Know New Jersey Ticks

We’ve been protecting Westmont families from tick infestations for years. We understand how ticks behave in New Jersey’s climate and which areas of your property they target first.

Most pest control companies treat ticks as an afterthought to mosquito service. We specialize in tick control because we know the stakes are higher. Lyme disease isn’t something you want to gamble with.

Our team knows Westmont properties inside and out. We’ve treated everything from small suburban lots to larger properties backing up to wooded areas. Every yard has its own tick challenges, and we’ve seen them all.

Best Tick Control Process

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we walk your entire property to identify tick hotspots. These are usually areas where your yard meets wooded sections, tall grass, or anywhere moisture collects. Ticks don’t spread evenly across your yard – they concentrate in specific zones.

Next, we apply targeted treatments to these high-risk areas using professional-grade products that eliminate ticks at every life stage. We focus on the perimeter of your property where ticks typically enter, plus any problem areas we identified during the inspection.

We schedule follow-up treatments based on your property’s specific needs and the severity of the local tick population. Most Westmont properties need treatments every 6-8 weeks during peak season to maintain protection. We’ll let you know exactly what your yard requires after the initial assessment.

What's Included In Your Service

Every tick control service starts with a complete property assessment. We identify the specific tick species on your property, map out their preferred habitats, and create a treatment plan that targets their behavior patterns.

Your treatment covers all the areas where ticks actually live and breed – not just a generic spray across your entire lawn. We treat landscape beds, the edges of wooded areas, tall grass sections, and anywhere moisture creates ideal tick conditions.

You get a clear explanation of what we found, what we treated, and what you can expect over the following weeks. We also provide recommendations for simple changes that make your property less attractive to ticks long-term. Most importantly, you get our direct number for any questions or concerns between treatments.

How often do I need tick control treatments in Westmont?

Most Westmont properties need treatments every 6-8 weeks during tick season, which runs from April through October in New Jersey. The exact frequency depends on your property’s proximity to wooded areas, how much wildlife traffic you get, and the severity of the local tick population. Properties that back up to preserved land or have deer regularly passing through typically need more frequent treatments. We’ll assess your specific situation and recommend a schedule that keeps your family protected without over-treating your property.
Yes, we use products specifically approved for residential properties where children and pets spend time. The treatments we apply break down quickly in sunlight and weather, but they remain effective against ticks for weeks. We recommend keeping kids and pets inside for 2-3 hours after treatment while everything dries, then your yard is safe for normal use. Many of our Westmont customers have young children and dogs – protecting families is exactly why we do this work. We’ll walk you through all safety precautions before we start any treatment.
Our tick control methods are designed to target ticks specifically while minimizing impact on beneficial insects. We apply treatments primarily to areas where ticks live – like the edges of wooded areas and landscape beds – rather than flowering plants where pollinators feed. The products we use break down quickly in the environment and don’t persist in the nectar or pollen that bees and butterflies depend on. We can also time treatments to avoid peak pollinator activity hours if you have gardens that attract lots of beneficial insects.
You’ll start seeing dead ticks within 24-48 hours of treatment, and the full effect develops over the first week. Ticks that are already on your property will be eliminated quickly, and new ticks entering treated areas will be killed before they can establish themselves. The key is that you should notice a dramatic reduction in tick encounters when you’re working in your yard or when your pets come inside. Keep in mind that if you have a severe infestation, you might still see some tick activity for the first few days as the treatment works through the population.
The best time to start tick control in Westmont is early April, before tick activity peaks. New Jersey ticks become active as soon as temperatures consistently reach the 40s, which usually happens in March. Starting treatments in April gets ahead of the problem and protects your family during the entire active season. If you’re already dealing with ticks, we can start treatments any time during the season. Fall treatments in October and November are also valuable because they target ticks before they find winter hiding spots on your property.
We stand behind our tick control treatments, but guarantees in pest control depend on many factors outside our control – like new tick populations moving in from neighboring properties or wildlife bringing ticks onto your land. What we can guarantee is that we’ll use proven methods, target the right areas of your property, and follow up if you’re still seeing significant tick activity after treatment. If our initial treatment doesn’t deliver the results you expected, we’ll return to reassess and retreat problem areas at no additional cost. Our goal is your complete satisfaction with the service.
