Tick Control, Three Pest Control Solutions
Posted by Mosquito SquadAugust 20, 2024
Mosquito Squad’s pest control in St Peters MO and surrounding areas defends against ticks with three effective solutions.
Ticks are not simply unsightly, fear-inducing arachnids. They are not just unfortunate latchers-onners, which are difficult to remove from the skin. They can also be difficult to find on your body, which is why even though a black-legged tick must remain attached at least 24 hours to transmit Lyme disease, it is the most prevalent tick-borne illness. But did you know that even 15 minutes of attachment could result in transmission of the potentially fatal Powassan virus?
Pest Control for Ticks: Granular Tick Control
Granular tick control is exactly what it sounds like. The delivery of small granules onto the ground, which fights myriad ground dwelling pests, including – you guessed it – ticks. The typical methodology for granular tick control is one application in the springtime and a second in autumn. This type of pest control for ticks could be a long-lasting and effective solution for your property.
