Finding a tick on your property is enough to make anyone feel anxious and uncomfortable. Ticks are not just a small nuisance — they’re also well-known vectors of diseases that can be a major threat to your family. 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.

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.

If you need work done on your trees I highly recommend Savatree. We had many dry dead branches on our willow oak in our front yard and they came out and inspected it pretty quickly. Within a week or so a crew was out clearing the dead wood off our tree. Now our tree looks great! The crew was efficient, safe, professional, and courteous. They made sure they got every last bit of dead wood off...

Took 3 quotes. These guys were at or below the other 2 quotes and it included stump grinding where the others were not. The crew left my yard better than they found it. I didn't have to clean up anything behind them. I thought the tree was substantial in size but they were in and out before noon. Will recommend to anyone.

Chris Glynn and his team are fantastic! We got an appointment and evaluation the day after we called. The work was scheduled and done within a week and the yard left spotless at a very fair price! Strongly recommend!

SavATree was great to work with. Got an appointment for an estimate to spray my scale infested trees. Quote was reasonable. Got an appointment for spraying a two days later, which was quick. The technician came earlier than quoted and was very professional. I would recommend this company to all.

We are incredibly happy with Brian and the entire crew at SavA Tree. Knowledgeable, professional, personable, on-time, considerate of our property while they worked, and neat... I'd go on but it seems like most of the posters say the same things. This was our first time using SavA Tree and we will use them again; and definitely recommend them.

We received our proposal after a thorough walk through of the needs. Two days later Sav A Tree was fertilizing the trees. Within one week we received a second appointment for the tree trimming and removal. I am impressed with their knowledge and responsiveness.

I've used SavATree for many years and have been very pleased. Matthew Sullivan, aborist, spent approximately one hour advising me on trimming and tree removal needed. Aaron and Hector worked efficiently as a team removing 3 large Leyland Cypress and trimming multiple tress. I enjoyed watching these 2 efficiently performing their work while seeming to enjoy the work they do. They did a...

Brian Bausch and his team did a tremendous job with our tree work. We have a large property and complex needs for trees that had been neglected for too long. He explained everything and his team took down two trees and did a tremendous job pruning the rest all while causing no damage to the lawn or vegetation. He was wonderful to work with, highly recommend!

Gary was very knowledgeable about my ailing dogwood. His application team showed up on time and was very helpful. Now we’ll wait a couple of months to see if the fertilization worked.
