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.

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.

Your crew did an amazing job trimming our trees, especially the two large oaks. I was a little taken back at the cost… until I watched you r crew at work. I then realized that your price was a bargain… thanks for working with us, Kelly… it’s always a pleasure. Your crew so impressed us that I pre-paid all our tree services for next year.

I had a huge white pine directly over my woodshed, propane tank and dog fence area. It has been dropping huge branches and I decided, reluctantly, to have it removed. I thought it would be impossible due to its location. However, Adam came out, told me it would be a job they could easily do. He gave me an estimate which was very competitive and, within two weeks, it was gone, I watched a very...

Did a beautiful job lighting our trees for the holidays. We will definitely continue to use them. Have also used them for tree removal, and they were great with that as well

We had 3 trees trimmed on a very cold day. Because our driveway was new, the workers could not use their heavy equipment. They never complained. Trees trimmed as planned; debris removed. Appreciated the work being done during the winter as the trees are stressed. A job well done!

They arrived on time removed a rubber tree. They did the stump grinding and removal of debris. They did an absolutely awesome job. I can add a photo. We would highly recommend using this company, and we will use them again.

Fabulous experience! The crew showed up on time, were easy to work with, did a great job on every tree (from roots to structure & branches), were very careful of my concerns & preferences, and cleaned up beautifully afterwards. I could not have asked for more. This is a truly excellent group, and I will definately have them back for ongoing tree care. They are worth every penny!
