Are There Tick-Borne Diseases in Loveland?

Posted by Mosquito Squad

August 21, 2024

If you’ve paid attention to the news over the past few years, you may have heard of the rising presence of Lyme disease in communities across the United States. While most tick-related news is confined to the eastern seaboard and particularly the Northeast, many cases of Lyme disease have been confirmed in Ohio: 1,297 cases in 2023. Lyme disease is chronically underreported, so we can be confident the real number is much higher – up to 10 times greater. Rather than attempt to fight against this silent threat on your own, your neighbors at Mosquito Squad of East Cincinnati-NKY are here to help defend you!

Ticks Are a Public Health Threat; Tick Control Is Their Nemesis

The CDC estimates that more than 475,000 people contract Lyme disease in the U.S. each year. The disease is no longer a rare occurrence, and it’s important to take proactive measures in your backyard to help keep these parasites at bay. We have the tools to make this a reality with the aid of our powerful tick control treatments. A vital asset in the fight against ticks, and they’ve proven exceedingly effective for many years.

How Loveland Tick Control Works

While clearing potential tick habitats such as overgrown grass, leaf litter, and unused mulch piles is important, professional help is essential. Our professional tick control treatments are backed by a long track record of success. When our highly trained technicians visit your property for your first treatment, they will assess potential tick habitats and will proceed to treat accordingly. In addition to applying treatments to your yard’s perimeter to keep ticks from traveling from other areas, we will also treat tick hotspots like the areas outlined above to thoroughly discourage them from establishing their shelters in your yard. With our help, you are guaranteed to experience a dramatic reduction in the tick population on your property with the help of treatments that last up to 21 days at a time.

When do Ticks Go Away?

Ticks are exceptionally hardy creatures. With a strong exoskeleton and low energy needs, ticks can survive from spring through fall and even into winter. Their activity only falls when temperatures reach near-freezing or when snow has fallen on the ground. This is a little-known fact; it is essential that you remain vigilant for ticks through most of the year. Your health may depend on it!
