Ticks

Ticks: Tiny, small, black and blood-sucking pests, these ticks can really take a toll on one’s health. Ticks require blood meals to complete their complex life cycles. Ticks are transmitters (vectors) of diseases for humans and animals. Ticks can transmit disease to many hosts; some cause economic harm such as Texas fever (bovine babesiosis) in cattle that can kill up to 90% of yearling cows. Lyme disease is one of the most well-known illness related to this pest

Ticks can be found in our backyards, under leaves, on ground cover, around walls and near structures and woodpiles where rodents and other small mammals are active.  

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) protocol is recommended for effective tick control.

Ticks can live as long as 200 days without food or water and they can live from 2 months to 2 years, depending on the species.
