Tick Control in Winder

Signs of a Tick Infestation in Your Winder Home and Yard

Ticks are a persistent threat to families and pets, but their small size makes them incredibly difficult to spot. While you may not see large numbers of ticks crawling around, an infestation can still be present in your yard or even inside your home. Being vigilant and knowing the signs of their presence is crucial for protecting your loved ones from the risks of tick-borne illnesses.

• Finding Ticks on People or Pets: The most obvious sign of an infestation is finding ticks attached to you, a family member, or your pets. Always check your skin carefully after spending time outdoors, especially in wooded or grassy areas, and perform regular checks on your pets' fur.
• Your Pets Are Constantly Scratching: If your pets are scratching or showing signs of discomfort after being outside, they may have ticks. The parasites often hide in hard-to-see areas like between toes, inside ears, and under the collar.
• Ticks Found in Your Yard or Garden: Ticks prefer to live in tall grasses, overgrown shrubs, and areas with leaf litter. A tick infestation is likely if you see ticks crawling on vegetation, even a few feet off the ground, or on wooden structures like fences or decks.
• Unexplained Illnesses: A more serious sign that you may have a tick problem is a family member or pet developing an unexplained illness with symptoms like fever, fatigue, or a rash. These can be symptoms of tick-borne diseases like Lyme disease and indicate the presence of infected ticks in your environment.

If you have noticed any of these signs, it's a clear indication that ticks are a threat to your property. While it can be tempting to try to handle the problem on your own, a professional and comprehensive approach is the most effective way to eliminate ticks and create a safer outdoor space for your family and pets. Contact an expert to schedule an inspection and take control of your yard.
