Pest Control in Hamilton, MA

Image

At Mosquito Busters, we use tried-and-true methods of tick control in both traditional and all-natural treatment forms. One of our thoroughly trained and equipped team members will work with you every step of the way to ensure you approve of treatments before we implement them and that they meet your specific needs.

When it comes to ticks, we will do two things:

1. A team member will inspect your property to identify what non-pesticide methods you can implement to keep ticks from reproducing in your yard.

2. Once we locate “hot areas” where ticks are likely to be hiding, we will apply a pesticide treatment. To see maximum results, we will need to reapply the treatment one or two additional times when using a traditional treatment and once every three weeks when using an all-natural treatment.

If you are worried about ticks on your Hamilton, MA property, you should contact us at Mosquito Busters for assistance.

How To Control Ticks In Your Hamilton Home

Ticks have no place in and around a home. In Hamilton, MA, it is inevitable that you will come across ticks because of the environment. Although ticks can be scary, you can take measures to keep them from making a home on your property. These measures include:

• Deter wildlife such as rodents, deer, raccoons, and strays because they can carry ticks and transfer them to your pets or onto your property. You can do this by removing food and water sources.
• Remove harborage sites by keeping grass and foliage trimmed.
• Keep firewood in a storage box.
• Clear out yard debris such as dead leaves.
• Create a barrier of wood chips or gravel between your yard and wooded areas. This barrier should be at least three feet wide.

The best way to control ticks on your Hamilton, MA property is with the help of Mosquito Busters. Contact our team today to get started with tick protection.

When it comes to mosquitoes, there are things you can do by yourself to control populations. However, no DIY solution or preventatives will compare to pro mosquito control. At Mosquito Busters, we use scientific approaches to our pest control, which produce desired results.

With professional mosquito control from Mosquito Busters, you can expect us to do three things:

1. We will identify breeding areas and resting places.

2. We will educate you on how to discourage mosquitoes between treatments.

3. We will apply a treatment that is best for your yard. This treatment can include a barrier around your property and treat standing water to kill mosquito larvae.

Store-bought pesticides, sprays, and citronella candles might keep mosquitoes away from your Hamilton property for a little bit, but they will not get to the root of the problem like professionals will.

The American Dog Tick is one common tick species in the Hamilton area. Although American Dog Ticks do not carry Lyme disease, they are still considered dangerous for several reasons.

American dog ticks are primarily known for spreading Rocky Mountain spotted fever (RMSF), affecting both humans and dogs. RMSF will usually result in a rash, fever, and headache. If left untreated, RMSF can be fatal.

This tick species can also spread tularemia, which can be life-threatening if untreated.

Another possible syndrome of a bite from an American dog tick is tick paralysis, which can cause muscle weakness and respiratory problems.

When bitten by a tick, it is always a good idea to monitor yourself or your pet and seek medical attention if there are symptoms. If you are worried about ticks in Hamilton, MA, you should contact Mosquito Busters for advice and assistance.
