Can Ticks Infest a House?

Posted by Mosquito Squad

December 20, 2023

In recent times, concern about ticks and the various diseases they carry has reached all-time highs, and for good reason. Ticks are one of the most common parasites we can encounter on a daily basis, and they are only becoming more common. From forests to residential areas, ticks are expanding their range for a few reasons, including warming temperatures and ample food sources. Our yards are not as safe as they were in years prior, too. Largely indiscriminate in what creatures they feed on, ticks are a real threat to your health and the health of your loved ones. So, if ticks are becoming more common, should you be concerned about these parasites infesting your home once they are inside?

Ticks in the home are always a subject of concern, but the chances that a tick will breed in your home are unlikely, but that doesn’t mean an infestation hasn’t happened before. Warm, damp areas are the favored habitat of ticks, and if such a place exists in the confines of your home, an infestation could be a possibility. Fortunately, such a situation isn’t something to lose sleep over. With the proper precautions, a tick infestation is very preventable by doing frequent tick-checks on your body, conducting yard work to clear potential tick habitat, and consulting a tick control professional. At Mosquito Squad, we have all the Darien tick control tools to help you avoid ticks and the dangerous diseases they often carry.

Darien tick control: More important than ever

Considering how nearly 50% of ticks in CT are estimated to carry Lyme disease, conducting your own tick control efforts is taking a hefty risk. As helpful as controlling tick habitat is, there is no guarantee that your efforts will be rewarded with a reduction of the tick population on your property. These little parasites are skilled sleuths, and professional tick control is the only way to provide sufficient defense.
