Why Tick Control Is Critical in New York

​

New York is one of the top states in the country for Lyme disease and tick-borne illnesses. That’s why tick control isn’t just about comfort—it’s about safety.

​

Ticks can transmit:

• Lyme disease

• Anaplasmosis

• Babesiosis

• Ehrlichiosis

• Powassan virus

​

Many of these diseases are spread by black-legged (deer) ticks, which are active from early spring through late fall in New York. Even small yards can host hundreds of ticks if left untreated.

​

Ticks are often found in:

• Tall grass

• Overgrown shrubs

• Wooded edges

• Leaf piles

• Under decks

• Around fencing and play areas

​

If you have pets, kids, or even just enjoy spending time outside, tick control is an important layer of protection.

 

Our Tick Control Program

​

Lawn Bugs offers seasonal tick control services using professional-grade treatments that target ticks at all stages of life. Here’s what our program includes:

​

1. Tick Habitat Inspection
We walk your property and identify high-risk areas based on shade, moisture, and vegetation.

2. Targeted Perimeter and Yard Treatment
We apply a tick barrier spray to grass, woodlines, around patios, fences, gardens, and play equipment.

3. Monthly or Seasonal Applications
Depending on the level of risk, we offer monthly treatments from April through October or a custom seasonal plan.

4. Pet- and Kid-Conscious Application
We use products that are safe when applied properly. You’ll receive clear instructions on when it’s safe to reenter treated areas (usually once dry).

​

We also offer bundle options with our lawn fertilization or pest control services for full property coverage.

 

Tick Control for Families with Pets

​

Ticks love attaching to dogs and cats—and they often bring them inside the home. If your pets play in the yard, we recommend routine tick control from early spring through fall.

​

Our technicians will pay special attention to:

• Shaded corners where dogs rest

• Fence lines or wood piles

• Mulch beds and garden areas

• Around dog runs, kennels, or play spaces

​

Regular treatments significantly reduce the risk of ticks hitching a ride indoors.

FAQs: Tick Control

​

Q: When should tick treatments start in New York?
A: Tick activity begins in early spring (April) and continues through late fall (October). We recommend starting treatments in April for best prevention.

Q: How long does a treatment last?
A: Each treatment lasts approximately 30 days, depending on weather and property conditions. Monthly visits offer consistent protection.

Q: Are tick sprays safe for kids and pets?
A: Yes. We will advise you to stay off the lawn until the treatment dries (usually 1–2 hours). After that, it’s safe for pets and children.

Q: Can I bundle tick control with other services?
A: Absolutely. Tick control pairs well with lawn fertilization, grub prevention, and general pest services for full property coverage.

Q: What if I’ve already found ticks in my yard?
A: Let us know right away. We’ll schedule a treatment as soon as possible to reduce population and prevent further bites.

Q: Will this eliminate all ticks?
A: While no treatment can 100% eliminate ticks outdoors, our approach drastically reduces their presence and keeps your family safer throughout the season.
