Tick Prevention and Control with Lawn Doctor

 This time of year, we love getting outside. The weather is starting to warm up, the days are getting longer, and your backyard tick problem is just around the corner. This year there’s no need to sacrifice any outdoor fun, because Lawn Doctor of Annapolis is here to help keep all the bugs, ticks especially, out of your yard through the spring season and beyond. Below, we’re talking about three important steps on controlling pests in your yard: how to prevent, control and maintain a bug free yard in Annapolis for you and your family.

          


Prevention

Starting with preventative measures is key and top of mind for our plan to keep ticks out of your yard. First, we cut back foliage to control potential habitats that pests can thrive in and when necessary, we replace them with plants that are unattractive to deer and mice - both tick-carrying animals that may find themselves in your yard from time to time. To really amp up tick preventative measures in your yard, we assess the need for fencing to keep deer away, make suggestions on keeping your lawn at the ideal height, and how to keep things like bird seed from attracting more than just beautiful birds into your yard.

Control

For controlling pests like ticks, we start with Yard Armour®. Lawn Doctor of Annapolis uses a variety of tick control programs through Yard Armour® that work on efforts to reduce tick problems near Annapolis or control any ongoing issues. These programs are designed to be effective and ultimately work to destroy ticks almost immediately. Our efforts made with Yard Armour are backed by a satisfaction guarantee for your peace of mind. With Yard Armour® by Lawn Doctor of Annapolis, we offer the best options to control ticks and unwanted pests.

 

Maintenance

The most important step to reducing ticks in your yard is to maintain what has worked in order to eliminate them, in addition to having a strategy to make your yard less appealing in the first place.
