Ticks

Tick Control in NH and MA

Enjoying the outdoors during spring and summer with your family is wonderful, but it's important to be aware of the presence of ticks.

These tiny creatures lurk in the brush, waiting for a chance to feed, and they pose a significant risk as carriers of various diseases affecting both humans and animals. Among arthropods, ticks are notorious for transmitting a wide range of pathogens. Diseases like Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and Tick Paralysis can be transmitted through tick bites when they feed on human blood.

Dangers of Having Ticks on your Property

Lyme disease, particularly transmitted by the deer tick (Ixodes scapularis), is a major concern. Symptoms include fever and a characteristic bull's-eye rash. Without prompt treatment, Lyme disease can lead to more severe symptoms such as facial muscle weakness (Bell’s palsy), shooting pains, joint swelling, and arthritis. Some patients may even experience prolonged symptoms known as post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome.

It started out with a mouse problem, then a bat in the attic, then carpenter ants,  then carpenter bees. We have the quarterly service, and I am grateful that you always come so quickly.
