What are you planning to get up to this summer? As the Northeast thaws and outdoor living starts to get into full swing, the possibilities for this summer are nearly endless. From taking a trip to the beach to simply spending time in your backyard, the warmer months offer you the ability to travel and relax as you please! Something to consider, however, is what variables might threaten your time in the outdoors. Many things can put a damper on your enjoyment of nature like storms and humidity, but there are a few other things that are a near-constant threat. Ticks and mosquitoes, for example, are some of the chief obstacles between you and your hopes for a fun and worry-free summer. Both creatures are almost universally hated, and for good reason. Ticks and mosquitoes rely on blood for survival and raising their young, and humans are included on the menu this summer. Unfortunately, these creatures are largely indiscriminate in what they choose to target, so a mosquito or tick will latch onto a bird just as happily as they will on a human. This feeding behavior is hugely concerning for our health and happiness. Why? Many diseases can exist in the blood of other organisms, and ticks and mosquitoes are capable of spreading many of these to us.

Why is Westwood tick control so important?

With just a small puncture, ticks and mosquitoes can infect us with dangerous pathogens that can cause life-changing consequences. For example, Lyme disease is the most common tick-borne disease in the United States, with around 400,000 people becoming infected each year. Mosquitoes don’t damage the health of people in the U.S. at nearly the same scale, but they are still a topic of serious concern, as well as a gigantic nuisance. These insects can also cause diseases in your pets, so you need to stay wary. Mosquito and tick control are of paramount importance this summer season. Don’t allow these creatures to ruin the outdoor time you’ve waited so long for!
