According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, ticks carry and transmit diseases like Lyme disease, Powassan virus, Borrelia, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, ehrlichiosis, anaplasmosis and babesiosis. Read on to learn how tick control and prevention methods can reduce the population of these unwanted pests so you can enjoy your outdoor space with peace of mind.

Where do ticks live?

Ticks are found all over the U.S. but have a larger footprint in heavily wooded regions like the Midwest, Southeast and Northeast. The CDC outlined where ticks are most commonly found:

  • American dog tick: East of the Rocky Mountains and certain areas on the Pacific Coast.
  • Blacklegged tick, or deer tick: Eastern U.S.
  • Brown dog tick: Across the U.S.
  • Gulf Coast tick: Coastal areas of the U.S., mostly along the Atlantic coast and the Gulf of Mexico.
  • Lone star tick: Southeastern and Eastern U.S.
  • Rocky Mountain wood tick: Rocky Mountain states such as Idaho, Wyoming, Montana and Utah.

When should you treat your property for ticks?

Any evidence of a tick habitat should be treated immediately to protect yourself, your children and pets.

Not all ticks are obvious to find. In the springtime — between May and June — ticks are in the nymph stage of their life cycle, which is considered the most dangerous. This is when they are at their smallest but still able to latch on to humans. Their size makes them very threatening because they’re more difficult to see, but they’re still just as harmful as adult ticks.

Between late August and September, ticks are looking to mate and get their blood from a host. And while not as common during the winter months, there’s potential for them to be highly active at this time.

Treating your property during each stage of the tick life cycle is important. That’s why we have all-season treatments available to control the population of these disease-ridden pests in your landscape.

What are the best options for protecting against ticks?

At SavATree, safety is a key component of our core values, and we understand the importance of protecting your landscaping and family from ticks. We bring a blend of research, experience and integrity to deliver that result.

SavATree tick control treatments that target both the lawn perimeter areas and tick-carrying mice and deer provide the greatest protection by quickly reducing the number of active ticks on your property. Our tick habitat treatments and organic tick repellent and landscape treatments are effective solutions because they target the tick population head-on and provide a solution that’s equally humane as it is efficient.

I contracted with SavATree (Exeter) this year to take down fifteen trees and to do monthly lawn treatments. Kendra was fantastic to deal with. She took care of scheduling, putting everything together, explaining the billing process and followed up when everything was done.. Ashley came out to the house, walked the property with me, made some great suggestions and handled the quotes. The...

Excellent workmanship from the equipment and the crew that was here. The arrived ay 8:00 AM and were done taking out three large trees, and trimming branches of a huge white ash that they have been treating it every other year to stop the beetles that have been destroying ash trees throughout the U.S. I would recommend SavATree for any tree service you may need.

I had a large tree removed. Tree was far away from the road, close to the pool and fence. They were able to skillfully remove the tree. When I returned home after work to see the result, you could not even tell they had completed the work other than the remaining stump. They did outstanding work! No damage to yard, property or debris trail of branches and leaves. They also cut back some...

River and Joel did a fantastic job with both a tree removal and a trim for us. They were courteous, highly efficient and cleaned up great after. I was impressed with both the quality and the speed of the work, with everything done in under 2.5 hours. This is our second time using Boise Tree and will certainly reach out to them again for tree work!

A neighbor recommended SavATree to us and we are very happy with their service … from the free consultation with arborist Ronal, who was very knowledgeable and informative, to the actual pruning of our four redwood trees, and yard cleanup. Everyone was professional, courteous, and responsive to our questions and concerns. “Natural” pruning made our redwoods look terrific and several...

Our HOA has been using SavATree for a good number of years. Scott, our arborist has taken the time to study our 53 acre property, and has provided us with solid advice on taking care of over 700 trees. The pricing has been fair, the crews careful, and safety procedures have always been followed. Most importantly, we feel that the health and beauty of our trees are cared for.

Have been a customer with Sav A Tree for several years. We recently had about 8 trees pruned and cut back and also had some branches removed since they had grown too close to the house. The crew was tremendous to work with and Tyler Willis was always attentive and gave great advice on what needed to be done. Thanks Sav A Tree!
